Requires	License To Chrome

Edgerunner lets V carry more chrome than the body can hold. Cyberware capacity can be exceeded by a wide margin, at the cost of maximum health, and each point over the line adds a chance that a kill sends V into a Fury. It sits at the top of the Technical Ability tree. It is the cyberpunk bargain written as a perk.

Effect

---

The trade is explicit. Going over capacity costs a share of maximum health for every point, so a build that pushes the limit hard is noticeably more fragile.

What it buys is Fury. Each kill in combat carries a chance to trigger it, the chance rises the further over capacity V is, and while it lasts V deals more damage with a large increase to both critical hit chance and critical damage. A build that goes far over the line spends much of a fight in that state.

How to Unlock Edgerunner

---

It sits behind the Legend gate of the Technical Ability tree, so almost every point goes into Technical Ability. License To Chrome must be fully bought first.

Perk Tree

---

Edgerunner is bought from License To Chrome in the Technical Ability tree.

Name	Image	Tier	Effect
License To Chrome		Phenom (15)	+10% to all cyberware stat modifiers.

Character Builds

---

The build is the most heavily chromed build the game allows, trading maximum health for implants and for the chance of entering Fury.

Buy it as the Legend gate opens, after License To Chrome is fully bought. Renaissance Punk and the Engineer skill reduce how much health the same loadout costs by raising capacity, and the Body healing branch is the usual answer to the health that is given away regardless.

Notes

---

Renaissance Punk and the Engineer skill both raise capacity, which reduces how much health the same loadout costs.

The Body tree's health branch is the usual answer to the health this perk gives away.
