Blood Daemon

Blood Daemon
Class	Intelligence Perk
Attribute	Intelligence
Tier	Phenom (15)
Levels	1

Blood Daemon heals V for every hack still queued on an enemy who dies during Overclock. A full queue on a dying target is a large amount of health. It sits in the netrunning branch of the Intelligence tree. It is the reward for overcommitting while the mode is running.

Effect

---

The amount scales with the number of quickhacks waiting in the queue rather than with their cost, so filling the queue is what matters.

That fits the mode exactly. Overclock lets V queue more than the bar can pay for, and this perk turns the surplus into health when the target drops, which means the overspending funds itself.

How to Unlock Blood Daemon

---

It sits behind the Phenom gate of the Intelligence tree, so a long run of points in Intelligence comes first.

Character Builds

---

The build is a netrunner that fills a queue past what the bar can pay for, which is exactly what Overclock allows.

Buy it at the Phenom gate, with Overclock already fully bought and Queue Acceleration on the way. The healing scales with queue length rather than cost, so Queue Mastery at the Legend gate raises it again by lengthening the queue once more.

Notes

---

Data Recycler refunds the RAM from the same unfinished queue, so one kill can return both health and RAM.

Queue Acceleration and Queue Mastery both lengthen the queue, which raises what this perk pays.
