Shadowrunners

You may have thought it was all about being a loner in the shadows, and if people joined you, it would be because of storyline! Well it's not, Shadowrun is all about hiring other Shadowrunners to watch your back! Though you can solo this game, Shadowrunners can be a great help to the beginner player and just plain veteran for fun depending on your tastes. Here are some of the Shadowrunners to meet in Shadowrun. I have ratings of the Shadowrunners you will have in this game, rating is from 1 to 5, 5 being best, 1st being worst. I should add, the karma system applies to the Shadowrunners as well, meaning you can MAKE them really strong too, but their rating is by their natural self.

~Ricky Star/Dwarf Shaman~-Rating: 1.4 Ricky isn't much of a treasure, I don't like Shamen due to them needing to use Totems, plus Mages are just plain better. A pity Joshua could not have been a Mage. Anyway, point being Ricky is good for the beginning but don't bring him anywhere that requires some firepower.

~Petr Uvehr/Dwarf Decker~-Rating: 2.1 Now Petr is better than Ricky, better with guns and is a DECKER. You need a Decker in the game of Shadowrun, so just hire one eh? Still, not as good of a Decker as Phantom or Rianna, I personally enjoyed him for fighting.

~Walking Bear/Orc Shaman~-Rating: 2.7 Only problem with Shamen, when you're not controlling them they automatically switch to Magic. Ugh, but still Walking Bear is a very good asset.

~Trent/Human Mage~-Rating: 2.5 Same with Shamen, Mages automatically switch to magics as their main attacks even if you equip them with great guns. Though Trent can fire some nice sparks, he's still a beginner.

~Rianna/Elf Decker~-Rating: 3.1 Ahh Rianna, the best Decker you'll ever get except for yourself maybe. She's good in the matrix, and can fight nicely too.

~Phantom/Elf Decker~-Rating: 2.5 Phantom's ok for a decker if you can't afford a powerful one like Rianna, which I suggest you do. 

~Winston Marrs/Troll Samurai~-Rating: 4.4 The best Shadowrunner you'll probably get except for Stark. Winston is the main man, he can have body/strength naturally up over 9 unlike humans who have like 6. Great in shotguns, he is very mighty in the game of Shadowrun.

~Freya Goldenhair/Elf Mage~-Rating: 3.3 Very very nice Mage, has nice spells and some skills. Freya is the best mage, and overall best spellcaster!
