Title: Black IC and Technomancers
Post by: SDTroll on <11-20-19/1136:29>

So, if a Technomancer is running cold sim and gets hit with black IC, does she take double stun damage?  Once for the matrix damage and once for the biofeedback?

Just because I need to keep probing, the technomancer would resist the matrix damage with firewall and the biofeedback with willpower, right? With possible a possible bonus for a NeuroFilter echo.

Note that for a Technomancer, Firewall = Willpower

Which mean she will use her Willpower rating both when asked to soak matrix damage as well as when soaking biofeedback damage.

Sort of ... it's Willpower + assigned resonance points

True. I keep forgetting that.

(and following that thought - the assigned resonance points would of course only help against matrix damage, not biofeedback damage)
