I'm maybe halfway through the game with a max Body & Cool Solo Build (punchy fisto), and I am a little more than just bored with the approach. I honestly feel that to gain tbe most from the game I want to make use of Hacking, Guns, and Stealth. Now, my initial thoughts were to prioritize (in order) Intelligence, Reflexes, and Tech; get all three to 7, then Intelligence to 20 ASAP, after which I'd try to level up Reflexes and Tech equally at an even split.
However, I've been more than made aware of just how useful Cool is to pretty much every build, especially a hacker with contagion and for stealth. So, my change has been to go Intelligence, Tech, and Cool in order. Intelligence because duh, Tech for the ability to open doors and actually fill up my armory, and Cool as the great complementary Stat. By 50th I would hope to likewise have Reflexes leveled to at least 9 so I would finish with: Reflexes 9, Tech 20, Intelligence 20, and Cool 20.
How does my reasoning hold up? I'd honestly prefer to level up Reflexes over Tech for the Gun perks, but I want to both be able to open all the doors as well as fill up my armory stash Display, so I'm kinda stuck with Tech.
