Cybereyes and ears are an enormous waste of essence. You can get all the same and more with some glasses, contacts, and earbuds. Add in a few other microsensors as well (you can fit 6 capacity worth in a "sensor gauntlet". Get two.) You should try to pick up as many different sensors as you can. Buy a few Knowsofts/Datasofts on important subjects; datasofts in marticular are cheap.

I don't know how much combat you expect to do on this character, but a Ruger Thunderbolt will be your best friend, particularly if you can get a few more shooting dice to Call Shots with.

Big problem i got with contacts and glasses is you cant put anything in there You already need two slots of Image Link and Smart Link Glasses being maxed at 4. They also dont have the recording units wich id find very useful for an investigator.

Dont you needs skillwires of Know/Data soft..or will a datajack do?

It does require having more sets of glasses/goggles/monocles but it's worth a little hassle compared to the Essence cost. For ease of use though, Cybereyes are fine.

Ditto for Cyberears if you're mainly worried about non-combat situations.

Recording units? You can get a cheap trid camera "sensor" and have that record. Actually, I'd suggest having multiple sensors dotting your body. And have a few micro and mini drones.

Oh and you don't even need a datajack for a knowsoft anymore. You can use Trodes and load them on your commlink. At least, that's what I'm probably misremembering.

Correct, but you can easily access them by chip with a datajack.

You could get more out of your armor if you use FFBA and then layer on top, then even out the B/I with PPP or armor clothing lines. You can always buy a non-armored long coat to conceal stuff.

Plus you can squeeze in more armor mods, like non-conductivity and fire resistance.

Also, did you miss your Leadership ranks or did you really put 3 points in Con, Ett and Neg, and not take the Influence Group? Here, have 6 BP back.

ALSO, are you planning on growing wings, because the Flight skill you took is for that - not piloting aircraft ;P

Hehe, I did not know that.

I am certainly not an authority on contacts, but a 2/1 Snitch doesn't seem like someone I want to know. Might weigh your options about beefing up the Mafia Lieutenant and/or Police Chief's Connection and/or Loyalty ratings. I think you'd get more mileage out of your points there.

Loos pretty good, though I still recommend those sensor gauntlets from before.

You can stick 6 capacity worth of sensors on a piece of clothing. Get yourself 2 gauntlets with full loads of sensors (Cyberware scanners, Radar, Chemical Analyzer, ect.).

UWBR, mind you, not just regular Radar. 2 Capacity vs 5, and you can see through walls.
