Some of the BE stuff just doesn't work. Some items a component is no longer available or once crafted, they do not work.
I tried this for CM, to try and get my poisons doing more damage, not gonna say it was a waste of time, just that now I know for sure they don't work, lol.
Once you can get the Evolve buff bot, you'll end up using it for Doc/Officer buffs, the duration is all that changes with more points in Doc tree, so once you get the bot those points are useful elsewhere (In my opinion)
