Title: Lockpicking drone - worth it?
Post by: PiXeL01 on <01-07-16/0623:57>

I've been a slow reader lately (which is also why my many sheets haven't been updated yet, sorry for that) so I haven't gotten through rigger 5 completely yet.

But basically would a drone with a drone arm and lockpicking software be worth bringing for a runner team with an infiltration expert or for a rigger controlled stealth drone

Yes it would. The Aztec crawler is predestined for adding special equipment, now that its size will be nerved down to mini drone. Give it an autopicker and a drone arm and enjoy up to 14 dice (4 Pilot + 4 Autosoft + 6 Autopicker) for your tests.

Actually, now that I think about it: Drone arms cost only 1 MP and allow you to use any one handed weapon or tool.
Suddenly the Crawler is back to being a viable combat drone - or any other function you want to give him.
I think I'll call mine Arthur Detour...

or give it a simple drone arm for 10% of the cost and only -2 limit which I think you can handle with the +6 limit given from the autopicker, something to consider with a rotodrone.
