Just playing around with the char creation rules and found out how to make the ultimate hacker.
Take adept as a quality and put points into magic. Take improved ability with the hacking/electronics skills you need (max= magic or skill rating whichever it lower). Suddenly you've got a hacker that can easily (in time by maxing magic) have insane hacking rolls ( 6 dice from software, 6 from skill, 6 from improved ability). And to boot seen no mention of the ability not working in VR. |
