Quick notes
- Match an attribute to the play style. Body, Reflexes, Technical Ability, Intelligence and Cool support different tools.
- Read the four perk thresholds. The redesigned trees open new tiers at attribute values of 4, 9, 15 and 20.
- Separate perk refunds from an attribute reset. Individual perk points can be refunded for free when their dependencies allow it.
- Track skill progression separately. Headhunter, Netrunner, Shinobi, Solo and Engineer are activity-based skills with passive rewards.
