Gobbet is a character and crew member in Shadowrun: Hong Kong.

Background[]

A shaman of the Rat totem, Gobbet loves her food. She also doesn't like to second-guess herself, something which the Player Character can help change.

Interactions[]

Gobbet first joins the player character and Duncan (unwillingly) during Hard Landing.
For City of Darkness, either her or Is0bel will accompany you as a runner, which will affect how you approach the run. (assuming you're not a decker or shaman.)
After you've heard enough of Gobbet's past, she'll disappear. To get her back, you must complete The Sinking Ship run.

Tips[]

Like Dietrich in Dragonfall, Gobbet is best used for buffing the team and debuffing the enemy, due to her relatively low Spellcasting and Conjuring scores (5 and 6 respectively at level 6). However, give her a spell which strips armor, and her SMG may become rather useful.
In Shadows, her Spellcasting and Ranged Combat are increased to 6. If you bring her for runs, consider buying upgraded versions of her default Heal Wound and Aim.
