About Serendipity Skill

[nexus7]

How does one unlock serendipity? I went to the auction the other day to get some with a skill implant but found that I couldn't do it. Was told that I don't have that skill...

According to my mentor Burger and please correct me if I'm wrong, you have to reach a certain level of skill in all areas or a certain number of areas and then you'll unlock serendipity. I'm not sure where your skill level has to be in order to reach it but I hope this helped.

Yanick is correct, Serendipity is one of the hidden skills that you unlock, based upon your various other skill levels. As you found when looking at implants, you cannot implant a skill until it is unlocked. After you have unlocked it, then you would be able to implant extra serendipity skill levels.

A good reference for skills is at
http://www.pe-wiki.info/Chart.aspx?chart=Skill
There it says serendipity unlocks at " Level 30 in any profession it contributes to ".

Other clues that you are close to unlocking it, is if you check the stats details ingame on a non-SIB weapon in your field of hunting. For example if you mainly use laser rifle, have a look in your inventory, or in the auction, at your stats for a Justifier Mk2. When your HA Hit Ability is at 3.0 you are almost there. When your professional standing shows as GREAT ( laser sniper, laser pistoleer etc ) then it should unlock Serendipity.

:ok:

I'll try to submit some extra info to that page soon, as it is a bit dated now.

Arrr - right, so that's it. Thanks all, sorry for late reply. It sounds like something to do with a musical recital to me :rolleyes:but I've heard it mentioned here and there and that serendipity is helpful for getting more globals which is why I wanted to buy some. I only do hunting and mining, not very high skills yet, so no idea how long I'll wait to unlock serendipity.
[ But then I looked at the skills chart mentioned and discovered that I need level 30 in any skill it contributes to to unlock it ].

Reason for silly skills list is I'm wondering what to get more of...
