The original post can be found here, but I am just now posting a character draft. The concept is a modern day (2070s) thief/shadowrunner, who can both hack and sneak his way in and out as needed. I'd appreciate any and all input. Especially if I broke any rules, or if you have advice in what you might do differently if you were creating this concept, or maybe just how to make it a little more efficient.
Let me preface by saying that this is not any easy character to make for anyone and I have no experience with neither hacker, nor infiltrator. That said, I built the character based on what I knew, developing some character backstory, and some advice from the good people here on the forums. It will have some serious flaws, I'm sure.

I'd say drop Double Jointed for a Restricted Gear and get the HK Urban Fighter heavy pistol. It's almost completely undetectable via scanners.
-
Nanohives are better implanted as Capacity in a cyber limb than on their own.
Anyone who does physical stuff can benefit from a Synthcardium 3.

As a "part two" of my previous post, move all those points from Automatics into Pistols.
-
As a GM I'd be incredibly leary about allowing something as generic as Subsonic Rounds as a Signature. The whole point of Signature is that it should be an identifiable and unusual element of your MO. If you're GM will allow it, then you need to make sure that all your ammo is subsonic. That would mean dumping the Stick N Shock ammo.
I'm not sure I see the utility to skin linking your cybereyes, wired reflexes, cyber safety or Datajack, they should both be DNI already.
As tight as you are for points you might look at shaving specialties, your 7 specialties are costing you 14 points, I think that you might use those points better elsewhere.
My Infiltrators tend to sink more points into perception, spotting guards/cameras/tripwires/weird things in your environment is pretty key to the role.
Unless you're using the optional rule that substitutes Logic for Program rating I'd think about shaving a point off of Logic for Strength. Again it's just my preference, but Climbing and Running are pretty vital skills for a B&E man and both are strength based.
I'd try very hard to find points to grab at least one level of the Athletics Skill Group, or to pick up running and gymnastics by themselves. Specifically I tend to find Dodge less useful than gymnastics, especially for an infiltrator type who can benefit from picking unconventional routes. You are in fact sinking the same 10 points into Climb 2 Specialized as the skill group at 1.
I'd tend to think that photographic memory and speed reading were a little redundant, and that the built in recording unit in your cyber eyes would make both traits unnecessary.
I'll second dropping automatics for Pistols.
If you're going for parachuting you might also consider diving.
You might drop Palming to 1 if you need points elsewhere. Specifically I'd drop Palming to 1 to raise Infiltrator to at least 4, I'd seriously consider dropping Palming to 1 and dropping Forgery entirely to make Infiltration your second 5.
A forgery of 1 isn't even high enough to get you into trouble really. I'd drop it. You'd probably be better off spending the same points on a C3 L1 Forger contact, or raising infiltration as above. Likewise Artisan of 1 is going to be of pretty limited use.
Right now your hacking is pretty rudimentary, both Computer and Hacking could use some points if you can spare them.
If you're going to pay for a datajack you might look into some know, lingua and map softs either now or in play.
I can't think of anything off the top of my head that Software 1 is going to help you with, and if you want to be effective at breaking the simplest locks you should bump hardware a little. Likewise pick up an electronics tool kit.
Any armor you wear with the FFBA will go over it, at least as I understand it, so the Securetech PPP would be over it and make the Ruthenium less effective. Likewise all of your gear would be outside the FFBA. I'd consider coating a Lined coat or something similar so that it would cover the majority of your gear.
If you're a fairly facey infiltrator (which it seems like you are) a second Fake SIN and a couple of changes of clothes wouldn't be out of order. Likewise a bolthole with some spare gear can be a (literal) lifesaver. Check out Safehouses if you haven't.
That nanohive is costing you 10 full BP including the neural amps... I'd think about putting it on my wish list and dumping the points into skills. Likewise the Car is another thing I'd drop and put on the wish list and invest the 4 points in skills.

Just because it's his signature, doesn't mean he has to use ONLY that, just that it needs to be more often than not.

I honestly don't think Subsonic rounds would qualify anyway.
Bonus: 10 BP
For whatever reason, a character with the Signature quality
feels compelled to announce her involvement in a mission or
run. This typically involves leaving behind some signature item or
telltale that can be identified as the character’s unique trademark
(ie. such as leaving a chess piece at the scene of a crime, or using
a unique weapon to perform wetwork). Typically, a Signature is
enough to identify the character among those who are aware of
her Reputation. A Signature provides a dice pool modifier equal
to the character’s Street Cred (p. 257, SR4) to anyone making tests
to trace the person to whom the Signature belongs (including
Legwork and Data Search Tests).
It doesn't seem either unique or identifiable enough.

As a "part two" of my previous post, move all those points from Automatics into Pistols.
He could just go up a level and get the HK Urban Combat SMG.

Meh, too much suggesting Automatics on these forums for my tastes, so I try to suggest other things.

All extremely good advice and I intend to follow all of it in my revision, with the exception of taking Restricted Gear. I've decided that it's overused and I prefer to take qualities that add to the fun of roleplaying the character or have something to do with their story.
With the Signature quality I thought taking Subsonic Rounds would be unusual enough because they are 9F, But I do see your point. In an ideal situation, this character could get through a run without even firing a weapon. Maybe it would be suitable for an assassin who always uses them 100% of the time, but it is less appropriate in this case.
Keep it coming.

My rule of thumb is that for signature to count you should be able to say "He's the guy who ______" and have people know who your talking about within the limits of your rep.
So "He's the guy who always leaves a mint on the target's pillow" or "He's the guy who breaks his marks hands with a sledgehammer first" or even "He's the assassin who uses a WW1 vintage bolt action rifle" would count, but "He uses subsonic rounds" would be too common and not distinctive enough and "Sometimes he uses subsonic rounds and sometimes he doesn't" would be right out.

I like those examples, but I think that it's probably just a bad trait for this kind of character, practically speaking. Unless I think of a really compelling reason not to then I'll ditch it.
Edit: Also, I forgot to mention that I took Electronics Skill Group, so that's the only reason I have Software.
-
Only using subsonic rounds isn't much of a signature. Something like dipping your rounds in curare or hollow points filled with a particular toxic substance is more appropriate and, from an assassin's point of view, will make sure the target ain't gonna recover...
-
As mentioned your skills need a major re-working. All of your pools are passable but none of them are great, you're trying to do too much, IMO. Some notes on BP efficiency (applicable to every build), 1.) wait on specializations 'til after chargen, 2.) don't do the 5/5 scheme, do the 6/4 split, and 3.) if possible, split your skills into 1s, 4s, and the 6 (according to tertiary, secondary and primary roles), i.e. you have too many 2s. And 4.) - this is the big one - you have every Stealth Group skill (spending 32 BP in them) but only one is at 3. Take the Stealth Group for 30BP, for the love of Zorgo, and have all of them at 3, plus 2 spare BP, either that or just pick 1 Stealth skill (Infiltration) and put it at 4 and use the saved BP to help out your other anemic skills.
Now, do you have some special plans for Artisan, or why are you wasting points on this when you are already spreading yourself massively thin? Note you could default on this and still have 7 die... if it's just for flavor, your high INT is the flavor. You aren't a primary combatant, cut your "offense skills" down to 1 (Pistols or Automatics), for Throwing you can default to your respectable AGI for now. Don't go with Gymnastics over Dodge unless you're picking up a melee skill (unarmed, blades, clubs), otherwise you'll get your arse handed to you when things are up close and personal. I'd recommend unarmed and a shock glove, but YMMV (especially since you're already spread as thin as butter on my breakfast toast). Regarding athletics, there's equipment that can make you good at climbing, all you really need right now from that group is Gymnastics IMO, and that's only if you have a melee skill. I know you envision yourself busting into a high-rise arco or something, grabbing the pay data, strolling to the top and parachuting away to safety, but that is highly conspicuous and extremely niche, get it after chargen, use those BP somewhere else for now. I'd ditch Forgery, you can outsource it. Get Perception to 4. Think hard of Pilot Groundcraft, i.e. can your Street Sam or Rigger be your driver? Help out your Hacking skills, they're pools are decent, but only because of your your stats and 'ware, when you get to Hacking, you're going to only have those skills + Program, so help them out.
I'll stop there for now as that's the bulk of what I see as your "problem".

Nah, keep it coming. I'd like to not have to recreate this guy three more times, so lay it on me.
Edit: Crunch, are you talking about wired DNI? Because I have no interest in having to plug into everything. I need to figure out a way to get DNI without external wiring and without using wireless, because it can be too easily detected. I don't have a firm grasp on this stuff and would appreciate your advice.
-

Well, let me rephrase, I think it looks pretty good other than skills. I might personally do a couple very small things different with Attributes (drop LOG to 4, bump AGI to 5, drop INT to 4 bump REA to 5), but that's largely because my table is pretty combat heavy and pools of 15+ are where a PCs primary skill(s) are at - which informs all of my advice really, so if your table is different, only heed accordingly.
I guess 1 item might be, your Initiative Passes, I think a decent number of Hacking actions are simple or complex actions, so if you're sticking to AR, you could benefit quite a bit from 3 IPs... may want to get some experienced hacker input on that however.
-
This character is for an online game. Likely for play by post here on the site, but it's still undecided, since I want a really active game. I don't need to make him a combat specialist, because the style of these play-by-post games tends to focus more on the roleplay and a little less on combat than most tabletop games, though I will alter the character to have better pools in his most important skills and to use just the pistols as far as firearms go.
I'm also currently working on getting his primary attributes to a good place this afternoon, through use of ware. Is there any ware that gives an Intuition attribute bonus?

I'm saying that as far as I can tell, there is no reason to skinlink your cyberwear as it is already connected directly to your nervous system.
-
So I could just put skinlink on my comm and it could connect to those devices without a wireless signal? Essentially cyberware is already skinlinked? So I wouldn't even have to skinlink the datajack? Nada?

Exactly.
-
So you mentioned a Lined Coat 6/4, but that takes up all of my body. If I try to wear anything with it aside from a little Securitech then I will be hindered by armor. Also, the lined coat doesn't cover the whole body, so there's no real point in giving it Chameleon coating. Thought or recommendations on armor and clothing please.
-
I've always assumed that PPP could be worn beneath FFFBA, with it being likened to sports equipment in the description, I guess I pictured it being about as bulky as like the protective wear on the hips, thighs and knees of football players - which wear form-fitting pants. I've never made an issue of it though or had it challenged, and of course others will interpret it other ways. I guess you don't quite have the BOD to combine FFFBA with the Zoe Second Skin, but that is a cheap way to get Reuthenium.
-
Well an alternative is this:
FFBA 4/1
Securitech 0/3
Zoe Second Skin 4/1
8/5 total and not all that expensive. Plus it removes any question of what can be worn beneath what, I believe. I'mm just add a hood to the character's personalized Zoe Second Skin. That work? No quite as good, but perhaps a little cheaper, I don't know. Mainly I want to wear it underneath suits and other clothing without being able to tell.
Other options would be to go the expensive, less protective route or to up my body at the cost of something else. Unless there's an item that reduces armor encumberance.
-
YNT Softweave reduces the highest encumbrance from one armour item, by an amount equal to your strength. (Availability: +1, Cost: 10% of the item value)
It's from War!, though ... which may nix it on principle for some.
-
I'll check it out. Don't get why so many people are down on War. There is plenty of OP gear without it. I see that sort of gear as giving some characters their colorful specialties, and limiting the books people can use is pretty darn silly.
Edit: Good call. I decided to spend about 21,000 on my armor, because I'm so particular. It's fine though, because I'm going to spend way less on weapons.
FFBA
-Thermal Dapening
-Ruthenium
Lined Coat
-Softweave
-Ruthenium
12/6
I think softweave is pretty fair in this case, since I still have a low impact rating and am spending some serious BP on armor.

Especially since with very few exceptions (Battle Buddy Basic and SoftWeave mainly) there isn't that much in it available in character creation--even with Restricted Gear quality--anyway.

Having been a football player, football pants are cut specifically to accommodate the pads. I always assumed that FFBA was under any other armor worn, but I don't have a really strong reason for that.
As for other options, what about a Jump Suit like the Urban explorer or the Camouflage Suit?
-
With the SecureTech PPP stuff, you need to remember that the description specifically says that there are 'discreet' versions and sports-gear versions.
-
"Discrete version to be worn under other clothing", unless I'm mistaken. Whether that fits under an individually tailored, form-fitting body suit ... that's up to your GM.
-

I'd imagine it'd go between the form-fit and anything else, yeah, but I had to point it out since it seems people forget about the discreet version and assume it's all football pads and such.
-
I think it's right to assume that FFBA goes underneath everything, simply because it's formfitting, however, since it has to be tailored to the user to be form-fitting then it could be tailored over discrete Securitech. Common sense, right?

I think it's the Second Skin that's custom tailored to the wearer. I think of FFBA being the more generalized of the two.
-
If this is a female character, the signature could be wearing high heels(scuff marks) or something.

Don't see why both wouldn't be tailored to your form, since many clothes and armor in shadowrun are. The name and traits of Form-fitting certainly imply a tailored fit in my opinion.
-
So this is a more well rounded and focused version of the character, though none of his pools are insane, I think he's acceptably good at everything that he does. This makes him effectively a Face/Infiltrator/AR Hacker. Thoughts?

Keep in mind, your "Hacking" + attribute skill pools don't matter, you only get the skill rank + program rank. And while your Neocorts help you out some here, the "doesnt work with major distractions"-thing could cripple you at a clutch moment (I know if I was GM I'd make sure it came up every other sesh or so), and since you don't have PuSHed or Encephalon you're really not at a reliable primary hacker skill level IMO (keep in mind I've never actually played one however). I'd recommend cutting back on the Face-ing focus more on the Hacking.

Perception is always good to have a lot of. Just throwing that one in there. I mean, it's nice to actually be able to use your unarmed combat if you get ambushed. ;)
