LP, Production
This Skill allows a character to make Traps and Trap Globes as per the Traps and Locks section. For each time Engineering is bought, the character receives two Engineering PP as detailed in the Production Skills section. This Skill also allows a character to exchange their PPs for Artificing. This Skill also allows a character to identify Engineering items as quickly as they can read the Tag.
A character must have this Skill to even attempt to set a Trap, disarm a Trap, or pick a Lock, but does not guarantee success. Without this Skill they may not even cut an obvious trip wire, but could spot it. Engineering also allows for the creation of Contraptions; See the Traps and Locks section in Chapter XII Alchemy and Traps for details.
Engineering allows you to attempt to arm Noisemaker, Alchemy Globe, Scroll, and Weapon Traps. The first rank of Engineering allows Contraptions to be thrown and Engineering Patches to be applied. It also allows attempted arming and disarming of Noisemaker, Alchemy Globe, Scroll, Weapon, Explosive, or Mechanical Traps.
