I was wondering if the cost of this isnt a bit much. The way I see it either having Increase Reflexes or Move by wire becomes essential in combat, no matter how strong ur char is, how can u beat someone that may have 3 or even 4 IP and u only 1 ?

A Magician can cast Increase Reflexes and easily have 4 IP (4 Hits), an Implanted characater have ways to significantlly reduce the essence cost of this implant, but an Adept must spend a a great amount of his power points if he intends to have 3 IP, and of course lets not talk about the last stage.

Maybe Im missing something here.
Some opinions about it?
