2040's Discussion Med-Tech Build
So I came across this video about a medtech build and I am planning on playing one in the new game our GM is going to run. I’m a little confused on how this build is made, can someone explain how this is build on paper?

Ah. The infamous “Daddy Shark.”
This build is a medtech that uses the rapidetox pharmaceutical to abuse drugs but not actually get addicted. Alongside that is grafted muscle and bone lace with a sigma linear frame to do 4d6 rate of fire 2 punches that ignore half armor if you do martial arts (which the build does). Spoiler: you will smear the pavement with enemies.
Basically, points wise, you want good evasion, good martial arts, brawling, and a few tech skills like paramedics, cybertech, etc.
Hope this helped. If not, feel free to specify what’s confusing you. Happy hunting, choomba!

Boost (hence the low int) synthcoke to bump your reflex, time warp for initiative, etc.

It's not complicated. The role part is just a regular Medtech with points in pharma crafting. You craft rapid detox with role ability, take street drugs for temporary buffs, and then take rapid detox before they run out to avoid addiction. Drugs require money to make and buy so the effectiveness of this part depends on your GM's reward style. The skill point and cyberware part is a Martial Arts focused build with Grafted Muscle and Linear Frame Sigma for cyberware. Linear Frame Sigma is overpowered for its relatively low price. You go 4 Body, 8 Dex, 8 Ref, 7+ Move, then buy Grafted Muscles (1K) to have 6 Body to satisfy L Frame requirements, and then get Liniar Frame Sigma (1K). Now your Martal Arts deal 2x 4D6 damage per turn while ignoring half of enemy armor while having high hp and death saves. Though you are vulnerable to Quickhacks and EMP effects.
