BCU module

[Bexx]

Hey!

I got a grey BCUmodule and already charged it 2 times (2/8).
Do I have to fully charge it (8/8) to start the process? I got the INT skill at 3.0 so with every charge giving 0.5 skill increase, 4 charges would be enough to max out my INT (5.0).
Let's say I'd go with 8/8 to the medic, and up my INT to 5, can I give the module to my friend, so that he can use the rest of 4/8 to up his INT?

That is not how it works. That one that you found requires 8/8 charges to work.

Once all 8 charges are in it you can try the attempt yourself or go to the Doctor and pay him. If you have the money use the Doctor.

Here's a vid on it!

Not going to do it by myself.
So if it's fully charged and the doc implemented it, is it gone or 0/8?
A fully charged 8/8 increases the INT by 0.5? So to increase my INT from 3 to 5 I'll need 4 fully charged modules?

That bcu charge thing is consumed in the process of using it so yes you will need at least 4 of those fully charged to get to 5 int

I have done that once Every new character I create starts with 5 int and advanced medical. Just my style!

Alright thanks man! At the moment it's fun to go around and search for active bunkers and rush in and out solo to get another charge. (I don't loot depository or armory - we do that when we're in a team and have a bunker card)
I guess next module I'll loot is the one with 4charges or better, I'll leave the 8 or worse modules....maybe too much work.

Yeah it was a grind I had made my toon back then 3, 3, 3, 3 I now start with at least 5 int when making a new one.

Does the cooldown of the charging terminal reset when the server is doing a planned reset?

I believe it persists through the timer
