[Stainless Steel Devil Rat]

Riggers were always my favorite archetype ever since SR1, and I've been playing a Decker lately in Chicago SRM.  There's a lot of overlap in their skill sets in SR5, so I'm testing the waters to see if I want to try a hybrid of the two when the new campaign kicks off.  Point of clarification: This character picked "brute force" over "hack on the fly".  He's less about hacking corporate hosts and more about combat bricking.  Or if he should be so lucky to have them present: hijacking enemy drones

My own thoughts:  I'm using a 1980's pic of Billy Idol for the guy's mugshot.  Should make some of my fluff decisions clear    Neo-Tokyo's gun culture is something we're all probably going to have to wrap our minds around.  I feel that sprawl is probably the one place you can get away with being incompetent with firearms, and I love the idea of a self-professed badass who actually thinks guns work the way they do in his beloved matrix games.  Hey, they mostly work that way via Gunnery, right?  Of course if he's basically hands off on guns, and his stats don't justify strong investment in close combat skills, what's his plan A?  Combat Bricking!  Go Big or Go Home and Codeslinger lets him go for 3 marks all at once and still throw 11 dice.  That sets up powerful followup Data Spikes or better still flat out jumping in to hostile drones and flipping their guns from their side to our side.

Plan B is pretty much the AK-97 in his Roto-Drone.  If the opposition has no drones and no electronic gear (going against a Shedim or Bug Spirit pack...) just good old fashioned high velocity lead is pretty much all a mundane can do anyway.  Hell, if he brings a threat response drone by firing the AK, then hey!  Another drone just showed up asking to be hacked and turned to help us win this fight!

I Object Sir!!! I Object. There is not Katana on this character sheet!!! You can't go to Neo-Tokyo and not have a Katana, or at-least a stun baton. How will you defend your honor in the streets Sir?

The good old fashioned way: A street race.. winner gets the loser's car!  When he's not decking or geeking out in a matrix game, he's still a member of the Tokyo Drift Race scene

How about making one of your contacts police officer or detective?  It would make sense from the street racing scene that you'd probably been busted a few times and you found one that would look the other way for some nuyen.  That contact will would also be a help if/when you get caught with something you shouldn't (fake sin, a gun) to make the consequences go away.

It's certainly a great idea.  Perhaps doubly so if I'm resigning my AK-97 to being a Police Drone Summoning Device.... it'd certainly be smart to have someone who can help smooth over correct accusations of having hacked police drones.

Reason it's not that way already is I'm just short on contact points, and didn't invest because rigger drones and decker matrix-ing are individually already pretty damn super for legwork/recon and taken together I wouldn't really need strong contact help in either aspect of a Shadowrun.   Agreed the smart thing might be to combine all contact points into one good police contact, but I didn't do so because I took a prejudice against cops   Didn't feel right that his one and only contact would be in law enforcement....

Still you're absolutely right.  I might do what I did for my socialite covert ops character and make a District Attorney a contact.. not technically a cop but could pretty clearly still count as being in Law Enforcement for the SRM purposes.  And the prejudice needn't even be a problem... the DA could also hate police corruption to the extent that he enjoys helping this particular law-breaker...

Any chance of using Sum-2-10 to trade 2 Edge on for 4 Attr or a bunch of skills?

Small changes, but get the Mechanic group later & focus all 5 Group points into a single group now.
I'm all for fluff skills, but in this case the Karma efficiency & extra dice in a main group matters.

Maybe drop single skills Armorer, Negotiation, & Cybertechnology for now to buy the Mechanic group for 5 Karma.

Move STR/REA/CHA into ITN &/or LOG for better skill checks/dodge/initiative.

I agree with the comments about a Cop being a good contact for this guy, also, everyone needs a fixer, lol

Using Sum-to-Ten makes your character subject to GM approval at a SRM game.  I'd rather just stick with priority rather than even give possibility of being subject to "Not at My Table!".  Besides, using that method is kind of dirty for the elf/human metatypes... it's like playing pathfinder with 25 point arrays when everyone else is only using 20..

He's still very much a work in progress.  I'm actually toying around with your recommendation of putting all 5 skill group points into the same group, but in the Computer group.. and using leftover karma to buy back into Mechanic for groundcraft and aero.  Mechanic skills seem to be pretty useless in SRM, but maybe that's just because there's the Goober contact in Chicago who you can hire to just do the work for you.. if Neo-Tokyo doesn't have a Goober analogue, a Rigger could very well be in trouble w/o decent mechanic skills...

SRM also gives out fixer and Mr Johnson type contacts virtually every mission it seems.  I'm actually leaning towards not buying a fixer at all and just collect the free ones handed out in play   But the way SRM governs buying and selling gear/loot, what I think every team really needs is a good fence.  You're required to use the 5% per loyalty rating option, and SRM doesn't seem to give out fences as free contacts.  A nice high loyalty fence may well go further than a face's negotiation skill for making good money per mission...

Point absolutely taken though about the usefulness of police contacts in the upcoming Neo-Tokyo, though.  My concern about taking one at this point is the FAQ is only v1.0... who knows what it'll say by the time the campaign launches.  And even if police contacts work the exact same way as in 1.0, they'll be SO useful that probably every other runner at the table will have one... that cuts down on the party's breadth of contacts and what the hell if we need a police contact, there'll be plenty across the table even if I lack one.  I suppose I recognize that it's a very good idea to have one... just kinda leaving some details in a "still working on it" limbo until it gets closer to Neo-Tokyo time

I have to ask, Why is it dirty for Elf but not other metas? 

but in the Computer group

I actually meant concentrate in Electronics, suggesting Mechanic was a typo.
That said I wouldn't buy Ground/Aero single, better to keep it the Engineering group since its one of only 2? that have 4 skills instead of 3.  Better to spend only 1 more Karma for 2 bonus skills.
I like having mechanic, I'd just do it after your first mission or 2,  no need to have it till some gear actually takes damage & you have to repair it in downtime.
I say use that starting Karma for things needed on the very first run.
Or more positive qualities that cost double post Chargen.

SRM also gives out fixer and Mr Johnson type contacts virtually every mission it seems.  I'm actually leaning towards not buying a fixer at all and just collect the free ones handed out in play   But the way SRM governs buying and selling gear/loot, what I think every team really needs is a good fence.  You're required to use the 5% per loyalty rating option, and SRM doesn't seem to give out fences as free contacts.  A nice high loyalty fence may well go further than a face's negotiation skill for making good money per mission...

This is a great idea, I wasn't thinking about Missions giving out free contacts, but yes, a Fence is far more useful than a Fixer at Chargen.

[Stainless Steel Devil Rat]

I have to ask, Why is it dirty for Elf but not other metas? 

Kind of off topic, but to answer: because you can be an Elf for D/1.  And the flip side of that means the priorities A-C are all available for doubling up upon, whereas that's not true for Orks/Trolls/Dwarves. 

More importantly, while SRM technically permits Sum to Ten, it expressly discourages it and such a character can only be played after the GM scrutinizes the character and approves its use at his table.  In organized play pushing that envelope doesn't seem worth it.  Where *I* might personally have no problem with an Ork/Troll/Dwarf using Sum To Ten and look dimly upon Humans and Elves built that way, that's just me.  No telling what another GM might say... you're skirting edge hard using Sum To Ten and I think that's fundamentally a bad thing in SRM.. I feel you really have to have a good reason that can't be built otherwise to even subject yourself to the uncertainty of being able to play your character.

[Stainless Steel Devil Rat]

I've been long wrestling with making a Rigger-Decker Hybrid work, and I haven't liked any iteration.  While the skills involved have a lot of crossover, the hardware is maddeningly difficult to reconcile inside a starting character's budget.

Problems:
You can't give Attack or Sleaze Dongles to a RCC.
You can't duplicate the RCC's functionality with Autosofts on a Cyberdeck.
You can't share cyberprograms between Cyberdecks and RCCs.
Even at Resources A, you can't have a good Cyberdeck, a good RCC, AND the vehicles/drones to make Rigging relevant.
You CAN get away with a RCC and a Commlink w Dongle, but getting one up to credible value ends up costing what a Cyberdeck would have anyway.
While Smoke and Mirrors exists to loophole your way past 0 Sleaze on a RCC, there's no comparable way to get around 0 Attack.
If you don't have viable Attack/Sleaze values, you have to pre-Edge every hacking test.

With all that, I was still bound and determined to find the magic combination that makes it all click.  I love the idea of a Nerdraging E-sports "athlete" who's both a Decker and Rigger... the concept seems so right it naturally SHOULD work, right?

Today in the course of researching a tangentially related issue I realized there's another snag I hadn't previously noticed: When using Control Device, a low Data Processing value sets the low ceiling on your actions... good Acc/Sensors/Handling/Speed be damned.  Frag!  You simply MUST have a good Data Processing stat... that's the straw that broke the cyberdeck's back.  I can't get by with Scratch Built Junk just to field Autosofts; I NEED a good DP stat and that means a good RCC.  And I can't use a custom cyberdeck since they don't reconfigure limits.

With that, I decided I had to kill the "oh yeah, and I'm a Cybercombat specialized Decker, too!" angle to being a Rigger.  Killed it, buried it.

Since I wasn't able to quite make this concept work, but hadn't been willing to kill the concept, I've also been working on an alternate character as my backup Neo-Tokyo character.  That ork cyberboi is as focused on one thing as this one was spread out in focus, and they're both competing for GM credits I've accrued over the past few months.  Like the brute, this character is looking at being a juicer to help stretch capabilities.  I had also been messing around with cyberlimbs on both; on this character I was toying with building an anthropomorphic tank for the rigger to virtually pilot into harm's way.  I changed it up a bit though, using the drones as an alternative to skillwires. Fun discovery: Rating 6 Skillsofts cost 30,000.  Rating 6 Autosofts cost 3,000!

Although I dropped the Decking aspect, the Computer skill remains as a sort of sentimental relic. Plus I had to redo the qualities, and I ended up giving homage to almost being a Decker in Down the Rabbit Hole and Well Actually...  It sounds fun to play out "correcting" the proper Decker's obviously incorrect matrix legwork discoveries...

As with my other character I'm refining, there are deliberately holes left open since there'll be GM credits to apply.  In this character's case, I'll be buying the basic social skills with karma, and spending money on more Autosofts. Now Duellists are Demolition experts!  Now they're Medics!  Now they're Mechanics!  I'm expecting to work out SO much better than trying to do Skillwires...
