Shadowrun 5e decker example character sheet reddit
You need a lot of skills between Cracking and Electronics skill groups. Skills are one of the huge investment for the Decker. Note that you still need to roll 12+ dice if you want to survive in the Matrix but you can get away without the whole skill set. So here is my idea, to create a half-hacker only invest in Hacking + Sleaze or Cybercombat + Attack, that way you don't need such a big deck or that much skill points. And to do that they need to use the Hacking or Cybercombat skills along with a Sleaze or Attack attribute. It all come down to that, what is the difference between a Decker and a Street Sam, Face or even Rigger in the Matrix? Marks! Decker manipulate Marks and that's what give them access to all the other actions. I will focus on Decker for this one and I might take a look at Techno later.

And I think it's true, when you see how dangerous the inside of a Host can become it is suicidal to get into one without the full set of a Decker/Techno but it got me thinking, can you really not do anything in the Matrix other than the occasional Matrix search? Is the whole set of a Hacker an all-or-nothing? I don't think so. The general consensus was that Decker and Techno required too much in term of equipment, skills and mental attribute to be secondary. Hey the other day I had an interesting conversation about whenever or not it is possible to build a half Decker/Techno as a secondary role, kind of how some people are secondary Face, Sam or even Mage.
