// What the files leave out
- Cost
- The files declare a Recon skill point, a currency of its own, but no table says what a skill costs in it, nor how many points a level of Recon gives.
- Levels
- A curve gives a value per level, but how many levels a skill will have is set elsewhere. The cards show each key the curve holds and stop there.
- Order
- Which skills open which is not in the files. The tree shows where each skill sits and draws no links between them, because any link would be a guess.
- Final values
- Every value in this tree follows one of 2 curves: ×0.8, ×0.7 and ×0.6 at levels 2, 3 and 4 (8 skills); ×1.2 and ×1.4 at levels 2 and 4 (6 skills). Unrelated attributes moving by the same steps reads as tuning still in progress.
