And any person with half a mind can be good at googling, so I don't consider that "being good at the matrix." Being matrix support as a techno is very difficult if your GM isn't being extremely kind to you or letting you get away with cheese(like spending 16 hours a day registering sprites. Tl Dr: a salty technomancer idealist crying over how little variety technomancers have (or shameless self-promoting: Technomancer Additions, a simple set of additions I've been working on.) If you want to see what technos used to look like, have a look at 4th edition Unwired. Hell, Mages are getting they're 21500000th book soon, and technos essentially got a footnote in one. But if you compare them to the only other archetype who relies on a Special Attribute: Mages. (This of course makes them feel like Mages of the Matrix, but honestly, that's what they were built to be) They have no reason to build a complex form focused build. They have few strong submersions and Echoes. Technos are unloved cause they have few strong complex forms. And you need to realise this now.Īs for physical space, just have a number of Low Level Fault Sprites laying down Matrix Surpressive fire with Electron Storm, and your primary Machine sprite (As high Level as you can), running diagonistics on your primary weapon. Instead of directly getting marks on something, use Puppeteer (GM discretion) to Invite Marks on yourself. But it has high limits and low dicepools. Instead of getting sprites to assist you, sustain Static Veil on a high Level Sprite, and instead assist the sprite in everything it does, cause you've got Low limits and high dicepools. What you need to do is play untraditionally. That's a way you can play technomancers, and hell, I've seen some strong builds regarding them. Thats not quite true, let me say this instead: you will likely be weaker, less survivable, and less versatile if you try and play like a decker, against Deckers. Technomancers are good for utility, but they don't play very traditionally. Technos are kinda unloved as it is so if you want to build one (especially one that uses the strongest but most hated power of diagonistics), you need to talk to your GM about what you can and can't do.
