Copy-Paste spreads a counter hack through a whole squad. When an enemy netrunner targets V and V hacks them back, the effect also lands on their allies. It sits in the netrunning branch of the Intelligence tree. One incoming hack becomes an opportunity rather than a threat.

Effect

---

The condition is that V is the target of an enemy netrunner, which in a camp with one is a matter of waiting a few seconds.

What follows is a single RAM cost that affects the group. A combat hack spread this way damages everyone, and a control hack spread this way takes the whole squad out of the fight at once.

How to Unlock Copy-Paste

---

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

Character Builds

---

The build is a netrunner that lets the enemy hack first, which is a counterintuitive but very efficient way to fight a squad with a netrunner in it.

Buy it at the Pro gate once Counter-A-Hack is in place, since that is what makes the counter possible at all. A control hack spread this way takes a whole group out of the fight for the price of one, which is as cheap as the tree gets.

Notes

---

Counter-A-Hack is what makes the counter possible through walls and at a discount, and the two are taken together.

Spillover at the top of the tree spreads ordinary quickhacks as well, rather than only counters.
