Basic Technomancer Vehicle Rigger - For Reference

(1/2) > >>

FST_Gemstar:
Just wanted to make this build sharable. Just a way to make a vehicle focused technomancer pilot that can become a rigger after their first submersion. Please let me know thoughts! Especially on attribute spread, as there is room to play with it and I went a squishier route.  Can trade the secondary car for a doberman drone or two with SMGs.

Karma Spent: 15 on PQs, 10 on Body, 15 on Logic, 10 on Charisma, -25 on PQs = 0 karma remaining
Nuyen remaining: ~4800, needs to be spent on a lot of ammo.

Xenon:
5th edition?

You can only have one persona at a time. You either access the matrix via your RCC (using a device based persona) or your access the matrix via your living persona (using a deviceless living persona).

If you want to get the capability of a RCC (issuing the same command to multiple drones, sharing autosofts, etc) while using your living persona you might want to take a look at the MACHINIST quality from Kill Code, it also give you a positive dice pool modifier of 2 dice when compiling or decompiling machine sprites - cost 20 karma.

FST_Gemstar:
Yes 5th.

The RCC is just to host the fly spies and I had the extra nuyen.

Character is a vehicle pilot (to be rigger), running a few machine sprite diagnostics (say 3 for +2 each) to get +6 dice and +3 limit increases to gunnery, driving, EW, and sneaking when piloting the van.

--- End quote ---
You can use mundane electronics, like a RCC, if you like. But while you use a RCC you can't use your resonance abilities. You need to choose between your RCC (reducing noise in your personal network, sharing autosofts in your personal network, issuing the same command to multiple drones in your personal network) and your living persona (access to actions linked to attack, sleaze or resonance).

SR5 p. 251 Using Mundane Electronics
You can use a commlink or cyberdeck if you like. A lot of technomancers do in order to hide their abilities. If you use a persona on a commlink or deck, you can’t use your Resonance abilities. That only works when you’re using your living persona, and since you can only use one persona at a time—well, you get the idea.


If you instead wish your fly spies to be part of your personal network while using your living persona as the master (instead of your RCC) then you need the One With the Matrix quality. If you wish that your living persona get to emulate capabilities of a RCC (to enable sharing of autosofts, for example, while using your living persona) you need the Machinist quality. If you wish to share a specific autosoft while using your living persona you need a specific Program Echo. If you wish to emulate the capabilities of a control rig (so you can jump into devices) then you need the Man-Machine Resonance Interface Echo.

FST_Gemstar:
Not tied to the flyspies, just got them for the option. Character is a vehicle rigger, particularly their van.  I can prob upgrade it to an Ares Roadmaster if I just dump the RCC and spies.

However, do you form a persona through an RCC when simply commanding Drones? That is why I have the RCC, so that the flyspies can share the same software and not have them individually loaded. Not planning on piloting them myself in any capacy (Not AR, VR, or jumping-in), simply commanding.
