Ok, so shadowrun 5th edition is out. Dodging is bigger and better than ever. Skills go twice as high as they did before. Augmentations are massively more expensive. Armour is far more prevalent.
So what is a good out-of-the-box dicepool these days? Case in point: My Face has a solid agility (5), 6 ranks in pistols, and Cybereyes with smartlink (+2 for smartguns), giving me 13 dice with my pistol. Is this good? Bad? Meh? I don't have a yardstick to measure against. Help? |
