Finished another run with this build. Minmaxxed stats a bit more and picked pistols again. Shotguns are the best choice for a build like this, they have the best damage output per AP spent, but pistols come second in my opinion and worth trying. This char goes really smooth, once again 5 monk fight is the only one to filter me

Maxxing INT allows us to tag pistols, lockpick and computer right away. Crit doesn't even need a tag right now as it will grow very fast. With educated we can tag computers. After getting INT implant and overclocking it we have a choice. We can tag Crit and bring it to 12, giving us base around 90%; or we can tag biotech and get cool high level upgrades. Biotech grows good by itself, and it actually reached 10 the first. I think it is the better option, you can get +12 initiative and 2MP for example with upgrades. Failed to get 10 in lockpick and electronics, even with tags and 10 INT. I am not sure how you get 10 in lockpick, even my previous char with 12 INT and necessary feats remained at 9

Second wind works great with pistols, fighting frogs with this char is particularly fun. Turn 2, all but 1 froggies are gone and I am at full AP

100% crit chance against target with low evasion. I use heavy pistol to take out all worms on turn 1, then use Romeo to distract medusas and tank their damage. This way I don't have to kill them quickly and can do it with regular revolver, saving energy ammo. Only one of the two fights where I brought Romeo with me, the rest it wasn't really needed. The second time I brought him was against cyborgs but it was of little help

Interesting. I think I would rather do the CHA build though, bringing along party members would make the game more interesting.

I might give the game another try at some point

As far as I remember for me it was rather a fork between 10 lockpick and 10 electronics but either of them were well within reach.

When you do the frog brains quest you take the third type of that stuff which boost skills, right? Some changes could've been made since release though.

Man if not for Stoneshart I'd be this close for diving in here again after seeing these run reports of yours :)

Vault Dweller I always thought that you were against crowdfunding because it took from future game profits...
Of course not. Who wouldn't want to have future profits ... today!?

But if there is are no future games, then wouldn't giving crowdfounding a shoot be worth it?
Because it would. not. work. KS isn't a magic well that grants wishes and funds games. It gives you a bit of money that are scaled to your level. If we ask for what we need, we won't get it. If we ask for what we can get, we'd only be milking our strongest supporters.

There's a non-negligible chance that you may have some wealthy benefactors(not me, don't get your hopes up) who're able to chip in a lot more than you expect. I wouldn't mind throwing an extra zero for what I'd otherwise pay for a videogame in cases such as this(unique game from a small studio that is struggling), even though I generally buy things on sale. I'm sure there are others out there who wouldn't think twice about throwing you an additional zero or two.

I assume a good number of lockpick checks are placed in stealth missions, the majority of which I skipped
