Greetings, New player, (dabbled with one game in n3). I had a question about how to handle opponents hackers. Whats tools are at our disposal to minimise the effects of hacking? Last game My Daiyokai got shut down and I couldn't free him from immobilised for the rest of the game. Just looking for advice from my fellow Bushi. Kiyomasa
One thing to remember is a lot of your heavy infantry and your tag have Stealth. So, moving around you won't be getting AROed by hackers much. I can't speak to good units for hunting down hacker but I have been bitten trying to using a hacking based defense on a HI infantry link from JSA.
EVO give a passive defense with Fairy Dust. Ninja KHD, and the Ryuken KHD to a lesser extent, can hunt down enemy hackers. Be careful of enemy repeater networks though as that will let all enemy hackers attack back. Having a Wildcard engineer in Yuriko is actually very useful as she can clear Immobilised/Isolated with a WIP roll. Finally, a hacker can't do anything if they've already been decapitated by an Infiltrating Oniwaban!
Ninja Killer Hacker in cyberspace unless against and uber hacker or an Oniwaban. Kitsune really is an auto include, if you're not taking her you're not trying to win a tournament.
