![]() ![]() Get it, and once available get multiple versions so you can use the weaker while the former is on cooldown. When it comes to support in Shadowrun, I'm primarily talking about:Ĭonjuring provides the best support - it allows the spellcaster to buff allies, or control the area via wall spells. Take an already decent character, and either give them an extra action point or adjust the playing field and you'll never need to buy a trauma kit. SupportIf tanking and damage are combat's meat & potatoes, then Support is the spice that makes the difference. A third role might be possible closer to end game - my combat decker was also the tank by the end of Deadman's Switch. The two main campaigns give you enough resources to play 2 roles effectively. With a good player build, a team of two might provide all three qualities. Excellent support characters can turn a decent runner into an unstoppable killing machine.Įvery runner team should have the following:Īs long as there's a tank, decent damage, and at least one person in a support role, the team shouldn't have too much trouble with whatever comes its way.

If you don't have at least 30 HP, you're going to have to constantly keep your character in the back and behind cover. That said, here's one non-negotiable build: Body of at least 3. While positioning will be very important - the AI can be easily manipulated - a bit of bad luck can still end your run prematurely if you don't build to survive. If you go down when the AI focuses all its efforts on you, the game ends. Oh, it won't ruin your game - but you won't be in as good a position as you could be compared to a custom job.Īs the player character, you must specialize in at least two things. This is very important and unfortunately allowing the game to generate your character will result in one that isn't optimal.
