This armor upgrade is perfect for those who don’t have time to get their armor fixed after a scrap or two. When you install this armor upgrade, you must place a number of UPBs equal to 100 × the item level of the armor in which it is installed. When you activate the upgrade with a move action, it expends a number UPBs from its reserve equal to 10 × the item level of the armor to repair the armor, restoring a number of Hit Points to the armor equal to the armor’s item level; this process takes 1 minute. This armor upgrade can repair broken armor but not destroyed armor. You can refill the upgrade’s UPB reserve to the maximum of 100 × the armor’s item level in a process that takes 1 minute.
