Progression and Strategy[]
It isn't difficult to level Robotics. Robotic enemies aren't uncommon, so as long as the player regularly engages, they will find find robotic enemies.
Robotics is a bit of a one-trick pony as far as Ground Combat skills go. Robotic enemies aren't uncommon, but they aren't particularly common either. On top of that, many of the benefits can be nullified if the enemy level is too high. Skills that are more broad may be more useful. Still, the ability to control robots can shake up challenging fights. Robotics is a potent but niche skill.
