Tinkerer and Jury Rigged for cybernetics

By Dyslexic Dragon, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

Can you use these talents (Tinkerer and Jury Rigged) on cybernetics, the description states item so you should be able to?

Curiosity is peaked. Would really love to see other's opinions to this question.

I could see Jury Rigged being applied to an item such as the Repulsor Fist to reduce its slow firing rating or increase it's crit rating. I'd allow tinkerer to be used on cybernetics as well, but I'm having a hard time thinking of any attachments that would be compatible.

I'm not sure I'd generally allow the prepare to he reduced on the fist to below 3. It's set up so that even if you have two of them, you can't just blast people with the unibeam like Iron Man all day, and I feel as though that was intentional.

By raw you can only apply reduce the quality once using Jury Rigged, so I'm not too concerned.

If it was me, knowing they can only be added to once, and the fact that cybernetics are considered an item for the purpose of the rules, I would say a definite yes.
