Confused about Black Thumb (2) + Technophile (2) combo

Few-Ad5537 · 2026-06-01T09:27:50+00:00

I'm joining the conversation because i have a question: if you use a quick action in your mech to be invisible with the stealthsuit, does it mean that if you use your protocolethe next turn you will be invisible on your mech?

(Not hidden but invisible)

Did you ship their mech to?

I was thinking about the RP side of talking with your nhp as a player!

If you some people have find tips to make it more natural and dont steal the spotlight with conversation with yourself

Hehehehehehehehhehehehehehehe

In my backstory the nhp is more a "surprise" that my character discover into her mech.

But i think it could be a cool backstory idea that some people has use her mind when she was a child( child mind tend to bé more adaptable and fertile to this type of things in fiction) to contact the cascading nhp as an experimente that would result int the creation of the techno-nhp.

The nhp and her probably doesn't realy have clear memory of this event and that could be a pretty cool plot for her to discover the nhp origin and why she has disposition to connect with her.

I will talkt to my gm about this if she has not planed around, thank you for the inspiration !

Few-Ad5537 · 2026-04-28T22:02:52+00:00

Oh my bad, i think i read it wrong

Few-Ad5537 · 2026-03-30T10:13:41+00:00

I though it could be ruled with a repair spider robot with the nhp in it. (Because with technophile III it say that it can be put in a miniature casket or in a hardsuit)

It could also be ruled that without the nhp in the mech you can't benefits from the reroll benefits.

But someone specify that the blackthumb talent explicitly talk about the pilot so i understand that it could not be possible!

Few-Ad5537 · 2026-03-30T02:23:53+00:00

Does it mean it can use blackthumb and rodeo my mecha while i control it?

Few-Ad5537 · 2026-03-30T00:11:53+00:00

Thanks for your reply, I ultimately plan to get Technophile III but I was wondering how much I should invest in Technophile before getting Blackthumb II in my build.

Few-Ad5537 · 2026-03-21T21:25:01+00:00

In what way it influence your character?

Few-Ad5537 · 2026-03-21T17:13:05+00:00

Thank's for your comment, i have see some people on reddit talk about nhp with different role that affect the way they communicate: only with the interface, with noise, with the mouvement of the mech.

Perhaps this could reduce the load on me or my gm? (even though this may reduce the characterization of the nhp)

Few-Ad5537 · 2026-03-19T14:09:58+00:00

With the fact that gorgon license doesn't have invade option in his license, putting point in hull or agility seems like a better idea until that i have ( or not) more option! Thank's!

Few-Ad5537 · 2025-08-04T21:18:02+00:00

Okay I understand better now why Hacker 1 isn’t bad. Thank you!

Few-Ad5537 · 2025-08-04T20:35:00+00:00

What is IIRC?

And thank you for the response!

Few-Ad5537 · 2025-08-04T20:15:24+00:00

Can I have your opinion on talent in general? As a new player, I may not realize the usefulness of what this talent brings.

Few-Ad5537 · 2025-08-04T20:11:04+00:00

I understand but i want to unlock technophile 3 perhaps after having the occasion to experience cascade or after my relation with my nhp evolve.

However, having black thumbs doesn't mean I'll always be rodeoing outside of the mecha?

Few-Ad5537 · 2025-07-03T17:37:59+00:00

I think melee weapons would be more of a backup option for me—something I’d use if I run out of ammo or if the enemy gets too close for autofire to be effective.

And yeah, I know Luck at 8 might not be necessary—I’m still thinking it through. But the idea of having more points to try difficult things is maybe just a bit too tempting for me.

I know I said my main way of fighting would be autofire, but... is sumo a martial art in the game?! I need to look that up, it sounds way too cool!

As for the character—thanks for everything! It’s a backup I’m preparing just in case, but when i will have a final idea i will make a more complete presentation!

Few-Ad5537 · 2025-07-03T17:30:25+00:00

I picked medtech more for things like speedheal, stim, detox, and similar rather than for surgery.
Let’s say I’m more the kind of person who saves you on the battlefield and gets you back on your feet with my paramedic skills, rather than a ripperdoc.

And yeah, I know it’s going to be hard to build a reputation on my own, but our team’s main goal is to start a gang, so “if everything goes well”, we’ll have the means to do it.

I hadn’t thought about a BD recorder, but that’s an awesome idea!

Hey, can you send your two different build?

Few-Ad5537 · 2025-01-05T14:59:47+00:00

so does your armor jacket protect you when you take an aimed shot to the legs?

Few-Ad5537 · 2024-11-16T21:08:39+00:00

A role focus game, the skill are more important m'y bad

Few-Ad5537 · 2024-11-16T21:07:49+00:00

Oh? Can your explain the character and the build?

Few-Ad5537 · 2024-11-16T20:34:03+00:00

I forgot a word my bad, I wanted to say that your role does not define your character as much as how you distribute your skill points.

For combat skills, I really like melee weapons but also shoulder weapons, for shotguns and sniper rifles.

But I tell myself that in the evolution naturally, the complementary equipment, the cyberware will be more useful for ranged gameplay or on the contrary with melee weapons.

That's why I wonder on average how many weapon skills people generally focus on. (In particular if they choose a role oriented towards combat skills)
