How to Quickhack

To be able to Quickhack, you will need a Cyberdeck. A Cyberdeck will allow you to hack enemies and machines when you scan them, deactivating or taking control of functions. Cyberdecks are a netrunner's trusty tool and will affect your Quickhacks.

Quickhacks Requires Spending RAM

Each Quickhacks will have a RAM cost that you will need to spend to activate and use the hack. The RAM required will vary based on the hack you have. Powerful hacks will require you to use more RAM to use it. One of the ways to increase your usable RAM is to get higher quality Cyberdecks.
