77 Technique and Particle Circulation Skill (3)

With my meager physical strength, having only my hand augmented wouldn't serve much of a purpose, but it could still give me the upper hand if the element of surprise were on my side in a fight. 

Yet, even finding the benefits available to me by unlocking my Augmentation skill early, there was the drawback of its cost. Activating the skill in the initial Stages had a massive draw of 30 PC, followed by a 5 PC per second sustenance rate, meaning even if I did use it, I'd have, at best, a few seconds to pummel my opponent.  

'Sigh, if they weren't all so damn expensive, I would just buy all of them and then spend the next couple of years slowly training them up, but no, as it stands, I can only choose one.' 

Making a hard decision, I chose to ignore Augmentation and Control, my reason being that I would unlock Augmentation upon reaching Alpha Grade anyway.
