Title: SR6 Racial Maximum Attributes & Gear
Post by: j2klbs on <08-22-20/2231:53>

Is gear subject to racial maximums?  For example, could a human that was already at Logic 9 buy a Cerebral Booster and get to Logic 12?

It's a flawed question.

The human racial maximum for Logic is 6.  7 with Exceptional Attribute.

But even if you are there at that maximum, augmented bonuses may exceed them.  Augmented bonuses are themselves limited to +4 on top of whatever your natural stat is.  See pg 37.


So this means that if your Human's Logic is 1, it can go to 1 (5) via bonuses from gear, implants, and/or spells.  It can't go to 1 (6), even though that's the racial maximum, because of the +4 augmented bonus limit.  OTOH, if your Human's logic is 7 (thanks to Exceptional Attribute), then bonuses can push that all the way to 7 (11)!

Ooops!  I'm embarrassed - I got confused between skills and attributes.  Long day.  :(

Thanks for the answer!  Exactly what I was looking for!!! :D
