Hera Tani specialises in power systems (Power Plant and Power Distributor modifications) and scanning equipment. She sits between Liz Ryder and Broo Tarquin in the Engineer network, and is the Engineer to unlock next once Liz Ryder is available.[1]

Location

  • System: Kuwemaki
  • Facility: The Jet's Hole

How to Discover This Engineer

Hera Tani becomes known as a referral once you've built reputation with Liz Ryder (typically around approximately grade 3–4 standing with her).[1][2]

How to Receive an Invitation

Reach Empire rank Outsider or higher.[1][2]

How to Unlock This Engineer

  1. Have Liz Ryder unlocked and build enough reputation with her to trigger the referral.
  2. Reach Empire rank Outsider or higher.
  3. Travel to The Jet's Hole in Kuwemaki.
  4. Deliver 50 units of Kamitra Cigars — a rare commodity, typically bought a few tons at a time from Hammel Terminal in the Kamitra system.
  5. Confirm access at the Engineer's terminal.

Station services may not appear immediately after unlocking — relogging may make them available.[1]

Engineer Unlock Chain

Engineer Unlock Chain
Liz Ryder→ Hera Tani→ Broo Tarquin

Hera Tani's only confirmed prerequisite is Liz Ryder. She in turn leads to Broo Tarquin; chain guides also list Tiana Fortune as reachable from Hera Tani, but that specific relationship still needs direct verification.[2]

Available Engineering

Module Blueprint Maximum grade
Detailed Surface Scanner Expanded probe scanning radius, Long range detailed To be confirmed
Power Distributor Balanced, Charge enhanced, Engine focused, High charge capacity, Shielded, Support focused, System focused, Weapon focused To be confirmed
Power Plant Armoured, Low emissions, Overcharged To be confirmed
Sensors Lightweight, Long range, Wide angle To be confirmed

Maximum grade per blueprint wasn't stated on the source checked.[1]

Experimental Effects

To be added — not confirmed in the sources checked for this pass.

Increasing Engineer Reputation

Reputation increases through crafting modifications at her workshop, in line with the general mechanic covered on the main Engineering page.

Blueprint Pinning

Fact: Hera Tani's confirmed specialties are Power Plant, Power Distributor, Sensors, and Detailed Surface Scanner modifications, per Available Engineering above.

EDFM recommendation: Not yet made. A pinning recommendation needs the maximum-grade data above filled in first — see Elite Dangerous Field Manual:Engineering Architecture for why EDFM treats pinning guidance as editorial judgement, not a database fact.
