i will say i use short circuit more, but that's cause i'm mainly nonlethal
So is overheat just worthless until I get contagion? Or until I get higher tiers of it?
at the start is overheat and short circuit basicly the death of every enemy (except is a skull aka higher level then you) there are implants and co. which can increase damage over time. so, if you want to focus on overheat damage, focus on implants matching your skill tree with that stat on them.
i do heavy damage with overheat. i only need to do 1 to kill most enemies. i usually snipe the rest of them int/tech mixx ^,^
Tier 1, and I don't have contagion. Mostly asking if a.) my game is glitched, and it's supposed to be 5 seconds, not 2, which is what it used to be before 2.0 I'm pretty sure. Or, if it's not a bug, b.) if there is literally no reason to use overheat anymore in the early game, when it's inferior to short circuit in every way?
My Hack Combos:
Goons/Trash Mobs: Cyberware Malfunction -> Short Circuit
Elites/Bosses: Cyberware Malfunction -> Overheat -> Overheat -> Cripple Movement/Disarm
Enemies are Stacked: Cyberware Malfunction -> Contagion -> Overheat
(If you want to be sneaky, replace Cyberware Malfunction with Sonic Shock)
Endgame you can just spam the Overclock -> Synapse Combo (Just keep in mind, it's Lethal)
That specific interaction requires T4 (or above) Contagion.
With that, any overheat or burn is enough to trigger the explosion.
Additionally theres really no way to improve short circuit. it just does what it does and thats about it. But overheat is both damage over time and duration based which means it benefits from anything that increases duration of combat quick hacks and increases damage over time. it also benefits from damage versus mechs if you can swing it and it also benefits from anything that just increases flat damage. So overheat benefits from everything while short circuit does not. Unless theres a way to make short circuits duration increase so that it becomes OP like it used to be.
