right, I'm sure this has been argued numerous times on DS, but my search-fu sucks and I need help. I have an adept elf who needs more intuition. what oh what can I use to boost intuition?

if people want, I might post my character later for them to tear apart.

Pretty sure theres some nano ware that does it in augmentation, but that only works when you're calm and not under the gun iirc.

There's nothing except the increase attribute spell. Limbic Neural Amplifiers, which is the Nanoware that Mor is referring to, only improves intuition linked skills not intuition itself. Of cause that might do the trick if you want to boost intuition linked skill iin which case you should also take a look at attention coprossessor (boosts perception), if however you're looking to boost your initiative then you need a friendly mage.

The Cognition Metamagic grants the capability to boost any Mental Attribute ... at least temporarily.

theres also two seperate transgenetic augmentations that give the +1 to INT-linked skills. also, the genetech that increaces your natural max would be another way of doing it.

Genetic Optimization for Intuition will allow you to buy your Intuition a bit cheaper, like the Exceptional Attribute quality.

Dynomitan and Qualia (Transgenic Enhanced Protein Exchanges p.90-91 Augmentation) both give +1 to Intuition linked skills as well, although Qualia is the better of the two, as Dynomitan has a negative downside. If you really want to min-max though, you can take both.
