Elusive item mods

[Gabriel Bales]

I think it would be neat if there was some way of learning to tinker certain mods, besides finding the right data disk or being taught it in the water ritual. Sometimes you can go to level 30+ without finding a crucial mod schematic, especially if the Stilt doesn’t spawn many schematics drafters.

For example, the Reverse Engineer skill or the Psychometry mutation could have a random chance of revealing how to mod an item with a given modification, when you deconstruct/identify an item that has that mod. Or, when you use Psychometry to identify an item with a given modification, it could give some progress towards learning that mod. For example, if over time you identified three flaming weapons, you would learn how to mod items with flaming. Just a thought!

yeah, it'd be neat
