Technician is an incredibly valuable skill which not just increases, but doubles the chance of repairing any broken items or equipments. In addition to that, it provides the wielder with points, which can be used to perform technical activities free of cost.

Other notable benefits are the ability to scrap that infernal Microwave and to remove one shower for Swedish Sofa parts, especially when using to do so cheaply. Removing a shower is announced by NERON so expect a lynch mob to form if you take down the second shower. Of course, if you are Mush, it can be worth it, as the humans will be left with just a sink afterwards...

Terrence is expected to have this skill, as there should be at least one Technician on board. Raluca loves it, as it gives her another bonus to PILGRED repairs. Kuan Ti will usually avoid getting Dirty, but can use it for the many boosts it gives to NERON projects - as can Eleesha (especially as an IT Expert), to whom it also gives a purpose after the Mush hunt. Hua will benefit from the points and chance boost, but is usually using her for piloting.

The Adjustable Wrench and Alien Bottle Opener are your best friends, dramatically improving the success chance on pretty much everything you're supposed to do, so keep them close.
