[SR5] Character creation questions, Social/Physical adept, for now... Options

[TomPliss]

Hey guys,

I'm taking a look at the character creation in SR5, and I have a few questions, building a social/physical adept :

1) If I take a priority B/C adept, the "one Rating [2 or 4] Active skill" means I act as if I had 2 or 4 bonus skill points (but those go all in the same skill) ?
If so, Can I still upgrade it with the normal skill points ?

2) If I take a metatype with bonus points (Human-1 here), I can put the extra ponit in magi and get an extra PP ?

3) Am I the only one feeling the skill-group points are more an hassle than anything else ? I mean, I can't break the group at char creation, so, using priority C skill, I have a skill group at 2 (or two at 1). This means I get to be "meh" (here, 8-8-5 for the dice pools)... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/indifferent.gif)

4) Little charsheet, what do you think about it ?

(The character isn't meant to be optimal, but viable as a detective-style adept without inplanted technology. the planned playstyle would be a series of sneaking-tracking and info-gathering (both with gadgets and face-to-face) phases, with a good handling of a potential fighting situation, both planned (sniper, may be replaced by a real sporting rifle from GH3 when bought) or unplanned (knucks, hold-out,taser,...).
As you can see, the char isn't finished yet (karma left for contacts, gear selection incomplete,...), so don't hesitate to give any advice (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
btw, I used the Omae char gen, is it up to date ?


PS: I can't see the sr5 post icon in the list, but read some with in the forum... how come ?
