On page 24 and 25 of Cynabar's Fantastic Technology - Droids under the tables SKILLWARE DEGREE MULTIPLIERS and SKILLWARE INSTALLATION DIFFICULTIES there appears to be a discrepancy that I would like peoples opinion on.

For Fifth Degree droids Installation difficulties for Perception are listed as Easy, and the price multiplier is listed as x3 which seems inconsistent with the rest of the chart. In all other cases any installation of Easy has either a x1 or x1.5 multiplier.

Should I use the chart as is? Is the degree multiplier the mistake (Should Perception be x1.5 and Mechanical be x3), or is the installation difficulty chart in error (Perception should be Difficult and Mechanical easy)?

I've got the Droids book, but never delved deeply into building my own. So I'm not sure, I'm afraid.

I think the difficulties for Fifth degree droids are off. Every other degree of droid have one Very Difficult trait, two Difficult, one Moderate, and two Easy. The Fifth Degree droids have one Very Difficult trait, one Difficult, two Moderate, and two Easy, along with costs that don't seem to match up.

I think it should be:
Dexterity: Moderate x2
Knowledge: Very Difficult x3
Mechanical: Easy x1.5
Perception: Difficulty x3
Strength: Easy x1
Technical: Difficult x2.5

I was leaning toward this ruling. I agree, thanks for chiming in.
