Unless you're a techno or mage then your brain is the equipment

The biggest reason to value attribs more though
It's more expensive to get them up later

Will attribute also matters a lot, it's pretty much always part of your drain/fade soak, good chunk of magic resist, affects composure (iirc), and a bunch of other miscellaneous things

Which is the big reason I hate non-karma-buy chargen in shadowrun

Punishes you for not minmaxing the fuck out of yourself at chargen

Have you even seen the EXP buy

Also Lifemods work decently well

Yeah it's ~800, which actually lets you more easily be above-average compared to the priority system

The only thing that's needed

is you have to treat racial minimums as 1 instead of whatever they are

otherwise nobody will ever play a troll or ork

That's a problem with point buy too, point buy just hides it if they get their higher BOD/STR at chargen

Haven't messed with lifemods

She's, not a very techy character, and I'm not messing with Mods by and large.

they're probably decent, since they're more generating a character through life story instead

Are you doing this by hand or are you using chummer

also is this 5e?

Ok, so, Logic was orignially gonna be a 2, but I opted to lower it to make room to get Agility up to 5 so that my shooting stat would be maxed since it's a Pink Mowhawk game and I'm a very combat focused character, so this seemed like a less useful stat. And Logic seemed a lesser fit to a folksy country caracature character.

also what exactly are you making? Non-techy think you mentioned adept.... going for melee, infiltration, or face? I'd normally also ask gun bunny but not techy leads me to believe that's a no out the gate

This is 5E.

Doing this by hand.

ew

Also LOG gets Armorer and Arcana as well as heals, demolitions, Academics, and Professionals

dear god ew

INT gets...

Inititavie in a gun fight for a gun slinger, doesn't it?

Stop killing yourself with by-hand in a crunch heavy system

Wait you are going gunbunny adept?

Navigation, tracking, perception, disguise, assensing, and artisan

Assensing requires you to be able to astrally percieve

unless you're spending a powerpoint on it adepts can't

(unless you're dual natured via being a shapeshifter or similar, or you have DM saying nah I allow it)

Also if you're dual natured you absolutely must take Dual Natured Defender or you're basically fucked as soon as someone casts mana barrier.

Cause she's a COW girl, Minotuar, gun slinger, and I am RUNNING with every wild west steryotype I can, cause it's a Pink Mowhawk game.

Yeah I'm not doing anything Astral.

And, Duel Natured? What? I'm afraid you lost me.

Also, Chummer isn't Linux Compatible.

Dual Natured means you're always astrally perceiving, most active critters are.

But you're just a mino so you're not

Unless you're perceiving

ARTISAN AND ARMORER ARE VERY NOTABLE IF YOU INTEND TO MANUFACTURE ITEMS!!

Artisans can reproduce goods that you'd see in a wal-mart, while armorers make all manner of gun/sword/armor/etc. BOTH of these require Knowledge skills, and BOTH rely on professional skills (logic) for the manufacture of blueprints.

which would cost a thing

1 whole PP too, it's kinda expensive but you need it in some contexts. Sounds like you won't though
