Translations:Intelligence/1/en

Intelligence is one of the Core Stats Steele and other creatures have. It represents general mental aptitude as well as overall mechanical and technical skill. In practice, Intelligence is most important for Tech Specialists, which have several perks and abilities that rely on it. It is mildly important for Smugglers; Sneak Attack and Aimed Shot include 1/2 Intelligence as bonus damage. It is least important for Mercenaries; only Carpet Grenades and Detonation Charge benefit from Intelligence. Kineticists use it for the accuracy of some of their powers. If you have the Fuck Sense perk, Libido will be substituted if higher for Mercenary/Smuggler/Tech Specialist calculations. Kineticists can replace it with Bodily Psi Aim or Dextrous Psi Aim However, there are many interactions that involve technology and/mental acuity which benefit from having a high intelligence, and not all can be replaced with Libido this way.
