data disk

A slender crystalline disk containing blueprints.

Perfect

Data disks, also referred to as schematics, teach the player how to build items or apply mods to items, and require the Tinkering skill. After using a data disk, the player gains permanent knowledge about how to build the item or apply the mod. However, there is a cost associated with such tinkering - each item built or modded consumes an amount of the player's bits.

The data disk is consumed upon use.

Data disks are dynamically generated based on the items and item mods in the game. Most complex items and mods will have a corresponding data disk, but a small handful of things are tagged for exclusion from data disk generation, such as blast cannon and swarm rack.

Data disks can be found as random loot, but they are also sold by vendors, such as the following. Most of these vendors will regularly restock new data disks.

• schematics drafters
• village tinkers
• Argyve
• Sparafucile
• Jacobo
• Yla Haj
• Legendary Barathrumites

The Tinkering skill is required to be able to see what a data disk will teach. Without the Tinkering skill, all data disks are simply named "data disk".
