Mechanical :116 (201)
Electronic:116 (201)
Chemistry:57 (111)   (thermobarics at 110 skill)

Factions/major choices: Coretech for shield rechargers (our main defense), Bioinvestigative belt from the squid lovers

U1: Knives
U2: Caltrops/Taser
U3: Shield Recharger
U4: Nets, bio grenades




W1:Super steel energy spear or tripple heartbreaker trident
W2:Grenade launcher or spare spear (depending on the encounter)

Helm:  Tchortist bioscrubber, synesthestic refocus, or deaths grin (depending on the situation)
Armor: Coretech tactical vest, or the home invasion armor
Belt: Commando, utility, or master demolitionist if on dominating
Boots: Super steel striders (buy or find some high quality ninja tabis for when you want to be sneaky)


Uniques: Trident with triple dose of heartbreak (think of this as a tool for assassinating bosses)

Remote control energizer glove (amazing against bots with some planning and a tazer)

Utilities

The goal of this build is to make a throwing knife build that solves 3 key problems

Softening targets/AOE (grenade launcher)

High DT targets (spear throw)

Bots (energizer glove)


We have acess to every drug in the game, 3 free feats (take pack rathound, armor slopping or whatever your heart desires)

This build gets most of its essential feats out of the way early and I'm surprised by just how many feats directly increase throwing knife damage (and how few feats actually affect throwing kinves)


on a side note This build has access to every drug in the game

All feedback is welcome
