Meanwhile a droid can be directed to do the same thing with only 2 swift actions. The droid can also be directed to recharge shields which an engineer can't do. A system operator is required to recharge them. So maybe Jendu would be a better choice since the droids have a Mechanics +13 (one point off from Njon's skill). That would leave Njon open to use heavy weapons.
Trained Pilots in the pilot position also gain +2 to hit. So they will have the best chance to hit BUT they also might not be able to shoot because their actions might be used up with flying.
So I need some input here about what we want to do.
Are there Heavy weapons only Pilots and Co-pilots can use?
There is the main gun, only the pilot or co-pilot can use it. On some ships there are guns only the pilot, but not co-pilot can use. And now your catching on. Jendu with the droids is more effective than Njon at engineer. Especially as the droids can attempt to reroll on jury-rig
