I see the problem here. I think we're both right. When i did my post i was looking at Talos. If you look at the two companion's "Tech" stats they are slightly different. 2V-R8 lists tech as one of his stats, whereas Talos does not. From my understanding i was only aware that Aim added to ranged damage. If that is incorrect i will admit to my mistake and happily add Aim to the list of aiding stats! I may have been slightly wrong and i will admit it. However, the facts about cunning, power and alacrity remain and i advise you not overlook my advice due to a slight error in information.

Aim; "Damage added to the basic ranged attack. Powerful attacks gain a larger multiple of this damage." So at what point, and from what source, exactly; are you getting "aim adds a bonus to tech abilities"?

And to that i have only one thing to say... Tell me i'm wrong about the stats i listed... then feel free to back it up with proof. Anyone that follows my advice will clearly see IN GAME, FIRST HAND; that what i listed is factual.
