Additional trade skills

If you'd like to become more self-sufficient, you may purchase more trade skill permits for fifty credits each, allowing you to learn an extra trade skill. Each of these skills also carries a compounding lesson cost to learn. So your third trade skill (first additional skill) will cost fifty percent more lessons to reach transcendent. Your fourth (second additional) will cost fifty percent more again.
To purchase an additional trade skill permit, simply visit Amarisse in Delos and BUY TRADESKILL PERMIT.
