What happened to Monowire ?

[Muffin]

It was my favorite weapon. I know a lot of people do not like it, but I loved it. It now needs intelligence and only has two skills, one of which is just a passive to get more RAM and the other is an finisher move. I'm pretty bummed out. Focusing on Monowire now is just bad because you have no skills to rely on. Netrunner in General feels kinda bad now.

Monowire became tied to Hacking probably because of Lucy from the Edgerunners anime.

Not sure what the issue is, I as a Netrunner am able to fully slice and dice entire armies of enemies without any effort.

In the expansion the Monowire will be so overpowered since it will be uploading quickhacks with each slice as well.

Monowire was always supposed to be a Netrunner weapon. Before launch it was advertised as being able to upload quickhacks and jack into hostile targets. It was one of the many things that they didn't deliver on and upset a lot of people.

They've overhauled the wires at least twice since then, but this is what it was supposed to be from the beginning.

Yeah, after they blew it on launch it was like they didn't know what to do with it, so they just dumped it into Blades.

I ran Monowire/2 second Sandy in 1.63, so I feel you.

i'd like monowire more if it was a stealth weapon real shame that only silenced pistols and throwing knifes can be used for stealth

Oh. Yeah in that case unfortunately Monowire is a Netrunner weapon now, so will have to use a Kitana or Mantis Blades if you were previously a Reflex build.

Haha geez. It was supposed to be inspired by the one in Johnny Mnemonic, where it slices the ♥♥♥♥ our of people.
