List of Contents
Smart weapons utilize advanced micro guided missile technology, it can lock on and home in onto your targets. Investing in certain Reflexes and Cool perks will make any smart weapon a force to be reckoned with, as there will be no running or hiding from these high-tech killing machines.
Reflexes is the foundation of this build. Some smart weapons have a low DPS, so acquiring Assault perks will increase your damage against enemies while not having to worry about accuracy.
| Reflexes determine your maneuverability. In addition to increasing your overall movement speed, each level in Reflexes will: - Increase your passive Evasion from enemy attacks by 1% - Increase Crit Chance by 1% - Increase damage from Mantis Blades by 3 |
Cool is needed to unlock Cold Blood, which will give your attacks potency. Increasing the level of this attribute will unlock more Cold Blood perks.
| Cool determines your resilience, composure and effectiveness in operating from stealth. Each level of Cool will: - Increase Crit Damage by 2% - Increase all Resistances by 1% - Increase stealth damage by 10% - Reduce the speed at which enemies detect you in stealth by 0.5% - Increase monowire damage by 3 |

In the crafting screen, would love to see a comparison between what I'm currently equipped with vs what I've selected to craft. In the Inventory screen, I have no idea where any extra weight is without going into each category (weapons, clothes, etc). Please add some sort of weight indicator next to each category so I know exactly where I seem to be overloaded. In the Map, please mark completed items (assault in progress, access points), grey out the icons or something similar?
If I fail or cancel out of an access point, the mini-game will not load up, you'll just get the jack in/Jack out animations but the mini-game will no longer appear.
