Whats some good quickhack combos?

[Lycon]

Currently I do reboot optics so the other QHs are -1 cost, then 2x short circuit cause cheap and then the last one has -50% cost and I do synapse burnout. Any other good combos? Specially for big groups (that are not grouped together)?

If you want to remain untraceable just use the sonic shock/overheat chain. Even at level 60 it kills 99% of enemies in a single hit. You may need to have a few castings of overheat against cyberpsycos or other bosses, but even enemies with the skulls above them go down with a single hit. Against bots I use the other one designed for bots and mechs. But remember that using overclock will start a trace on you, so for all but the most dire situations I would rather not use overclock and just remain hidden.

Sonic Shock -> Short Circuit. 9 times outta 10 (for me), it takes 'em out in 1 hit. Unless it's a boss-enemy, or an enemy with a skull icon above their head -- that's the 1 outta 10, I mentioned where it won't 1-shot them lol

Doesn't quite count as a combo i suppose, but I absolutely love actually letting the enemies track me / go in guns blazing, wait for the enemy netrunner to try and hack me and then Uno Reverse card them with a Synapse Burnout while they're hacking with the perk(s) that allow hacking them through walls and spreading the hack to all their teammates. Suddenly brains frying everywhere xD

overheat 🔥🔥

[drunk dandere]

normal enemies : sonic shock > short circuit x 2 or > synapse but only if they have a skull above their head.

bosses cyberware malfunction > contagion > overheat > synapse

Do people use the orange versions of sonic sock and reboot optics etc? Cause the better their quality the more they cost

Stick with Green on Reboot. No need for more. If Sonic Shock is the hack that cloaks the target from nearby enemies, you just need the level that provides the cloaking feature.

weapon glitch and cyberware mulfunction combo is my favorite.

You can just completely disable some powerful elites.

You only need tier 3 (blue) for sonic shock, though tier 4 means you don't have to hide the bodies and can even drop them in front of their friends.
Reboot optics and similar quickhacks have little utility - you might as well spend the ram on killing. If you're using those quickhacks as a debuff before you go in guns blazing, all you need is tier 2.

When dealing with higher tier quickhacks and higher level enemies overheat does way more damage for the same ram cost.

T4 Memory Wipe --> Then Reboot Optics --> Then T5 Sonic Shock = Undetectable auto kill (Unconscious). Strong against all but major bosses.

With Overclock you just cycle this combo until everything is dead without even entering combat or being traced. Best combined with getting "Gain 0.XX RAM regen after neutralizing enemy" on Cyberware so you can keep it going. No need for AoE hacks or depending on damage increases (or cyberware that allows hacks to crit). Very cheap chain when combined with Arasaka Deck.

T4 Memory Wipe --> Any Hacks in same queue thereafter = Untraceable

Then some other combos mentioned above and of course, the combos listed in many descriptions of various hacks. Then making sure you understand and know the effects Hack stacking (like Cybernetic Malfunction, Burnout etc.). There's a lot of utility in just spam casting some hacks.

reboot optics and a dagger to the face is my go to

[TripSin]

I do a lot of contagion > overheat as I go for a lot of explosions to get pyromania stacks.

I have a very hard build and it relies on overclock and synapses burnout.

It one shots everything in the game on very hard and will clear 20+ enemies if there is a netrunner on the enemy side hacking you.
