Active Skills:
Certain skills are used actively in the game according to your skills. These are listed here.
"Appraise": By appraising a component, you may look into what the component is, what it does and with what tech it is used. If it is of a tech you do not have any skill in, you only find out its description. Take the component to the tech-bench and wait till a ref appears. Tell the ref your appraise skill is and in what tech it is, hand over the lammy and they will tell you what you have found out.
“Diagnose”: Diagnose is a skill you use whilst in the arena. Go to whatever you are trying to diagnose and motion over a ref or shout “Diagnosing”. Role-play for 60 seconds and then tell the ref your diagnosing level. He will either tell you there or back in the briefing room depending on complexity. You cannot make any other actions whilst diagnosing, moving, using a skill or using a weapon will reset the diagnosis.
“Tinker”: Tinker is a skill you use whilst in the arena. Go to whatever you are trying to tinker with and motion over a ref or shout “Tinkering”. Role-play for 60 seconds and then tell the ref your Tinkering level. He will either tell you there or back in the briefing room depending on complexity. You cannot make any other actions whilst tinkering, moving, using a skill or using a weapon will reset the tinker.
“Hack”: Hack is a skill you use whilst in the arena. Go to whatever you are trying to Hack and motion over a ref or shout “Hacking”. Role-play for 60 seconds and then tell the ref your hacking level. He will either tell you there or back in the briefing room depending on complexity. You cannot make any other actions whilst hacking, moving, using a skill or using a weapon will reset the hack.
“Staunch”: In order to staunch a downed friendly, go over to them and roleplay for 20 seconds staunching, or applying pressure to, a wound. Then, when the match is finished, point out to the ref in the briefing room which ones have been staunched. This allows modifiers to be applied to the draw
“Quick-stim”: To apply a quickstim, simply go over to a downed friendly and roleplay administering a stim for 10 seconds. This will pick him up and give him 2 hitpoints back. If he takes two further his, he will be downed again. If you do a staunch prior to the quickstim and he is downed again, you will be required to reapply the staunch or it will not take effect. Other stims are available
Shields:
All Shields used in Hive must be of LARPsafe quality, basic foam and latex construction. Consult with the skill chart above to see which shields you are able to use. The Measurements for shields relative to skill are listed below.
If a shield is hit by any darts, you take no Damage. However, if a shield is hit by either a CRITICAL or a RAVAGE call, you dont take the effects but the shield is temporarily damaged and cannot be used, it must be immediately discarded until the end of the fight. It can then be repaired by an Armstech character using the Tinker skill for 3 minutes.

- Medium Shield: 40 Inches/100 cm Diameter
- Riot Shield: 48 Inches by 24 Inches

The Phys rep Must come up to past the elbow and must look sufficiently armoured, Tactical gear or otherwise are acceptable
