Defensive Workbench Upgrade
The Defensive Workbench Upgrade is a deployable augmentation medium that adds 1 default slot to any item (must be on the approved list) crafted within range of any Workbench on which it is deployed. It takes the form of what appears to be an arbor tabletop tool, used in the real world to add bushings, rivets, bearings, or other connecting mechanical components to objects.
Modes of Acquisition
- Crafting: Not currently craftable
- Loot Sources: Currently found in large brown box loot tables.
- Research: Cannot be learned via Research Tables.
- Purchase: Cannot be bought in-game from NPC vendors. May be purchased from applicable player shops.
- Console Access: Spawnable via F1 console on servers with appropriate permissions.
Usage & Functionality
Workbench augmentations are individual, solitary effects that cannot be stacked within the workbench itself, i.e., only one of each at any time. They were added as optional features to improve craft time, increase base comfort, or potentially reduce crafting costs, all while enhancing base appearance and vibe.
