Drone Mods

As you gain levels, your drone gains custom modifications, gear, and programming that give it additional capabilities and options. Any level-based abilities for your drone’s mods use your full mechanic level, regardless of whether you’re using control net to assign fewer levels to your drone.

Your drone gains its first custom modification at 1st level and an additional mod every 2 levels thereafter. Mods are grouped into two categories, basic and advanced. You can choose basic mods at any level, but you must be 11th level (or have assigned at least 11 levels to your drone) to select advanced mods. Some mods require your drone to have other custom mods installed before they can function. Unless otherwise noted, each mod can be selected only once.

Defensive Fade (Ex)

Source Tech Revolution pg. 24
Mod Level Advanced
When under attack, your drone can disappear swiftly. Once per minute, as a reaction after taking damage, your drone can immediately activate its reactive camouflage as though it had remained stationary for 1 round, and it can attempt a Stealth check to hide even if it’s currently observed. If the drone also spends 1 Resolve Point while activating this ability, it can also take a defensive step after attempting the Stealth check. This mod requires that your drone has the reactive camouflage mod.
