Hey guys, so I was toying with the idea of a mixed magic & bio/cyber character and I'm trying to determine if it's viable.
Magic usually rewards purists and I understand there is a steep penalty for losing essence, but is it worth it at some point? I'm not looking for a burnout, but an awakened character that is perfectly willing to limit their Magic in exchange for technology. There are some "magical" skills (e.g. Assensning & Astral Combat) that don't depend on the Magic attribute. I'm wondering if there is some piece of ware so good that it's worth taking some essence loss or is there a group of spells that don't require a Magic rating over 3. Is it possible to go half-way? |
