Description
Amalgamation: Cyber Ninja Specialization(Tertiary)


This mod adds a new Amalgamation tertiary spec called Cyber Ninja which combines unmatched mobility, stealth, and hacking skills to infiltrate enemy networks and assassinate high-priority targets with lethal precision. This spec along with most of the abilities derive from the SuperSoldiers (Core) mod(SuperSoldier Classes are disabled by default), which include perks and armor from the Ninja and Cyborg classes. For info on those abilities and armor, please check out this link here[docs.google.com].

The Cyber Ninja is a rare and slightly overpowered class, specializing exclusively in primary swords, knifes and bullpups with a secondary GREMLIN, with the exception of the Arcance Archer(primary) and Ninja Warrior(secondary) specs. Also included in this spec is a custom perk called Cyber Ninja Instincts which grants Acrobatics, Mind Over Body & Cyber Hack abilities. Acrobatics and Mind Over Body are both Ninja class perks and Cyber Hack is another custom perk for the Cyber Ninja. Cyber Hack allows the user to covertly deploy Intrusion Protocol through a GREMLIN, enabling hidden hacks and sabotage without revealing their location. Hacking mission objectives will still reveal the user along with any damage dealing abilities.

The original mod stated somewhere that using perks with armours they're not designed for could break things, which is why I made all SuperSoldier specs incompatible with each other. There are other reasons beside that, but this is the biggest one.
Granted, I never even tested that. I just took the original creators' word for it. Part of it is obviously the energy mechanic some perks use, but I feel like there's more to it.
Anyway, if you figured all of that out and made it work, that's really impressive!

You're a psionic modding genius! Magnificent work Dru!

Mr.Nuke You can only equip the Cyborg armor after you've trained in the Cyborg Cybernetic Conversion ability which is static at rank Sgt. For some reason, they made the armors built into the perks which is the same with the squaddie perk The Way Of The Ninja(Ninja Suit).

The best feature of this wonderful spec is the fact that it's so new the incompatibilities haven't been ironed out yet. I see some wanting it done "medium rare" like a fine butterfly-cut Texas rib eye famm! I also could'nt equip the cyborg armor but I had an armor rebalance installed that I removed. Let me test that a bit further. It's a fairly common spec but that's because I slimmed the specs to mostly just your amalgam packs and a few extra.

@Mr.Nuke You're welcome. Thank you for the very cool idea of a spec I never knew I wanted...hehe. ;) Enjoy and good luck Commander!

@XpanD Kinda...sorta...hopefully....hehe. As you know, the original idea for it was to be a primary spec but you know how that turned out, so I reworked it into a tertiary where everything started to work out(fingers crossed).
