Im wondering how well this build would work.  Im only lvl 10 atm, but I really like the network attacker tree.  How efficient would it be to go all the way down into network attacker? It would give me some awsome debuffs, I would be able to soften my target up, and make them really weak against Melee and Ballistics, and then I could take them out with guns.

 Anyone else ever tried this combo? Would I even have enough memory to load both Network attacker and Scattershot skillz?

Off-hand I don't think you'd be able to load enough ballistic abilities to make debuffing your opponent worth the time.

Also, in order to maximise your stats for hacker, you'd suffer for lack of those attributed to ballistics.  In short, even if you could load a reasonable amount of ballistic abilities, your stats will hinder your chances of hitting anyone or/and doing any discernible damage.

This makes me feel like trying Spy/Duelist, considering the Thrown Accuracy involved in Ballistic Stats.

I'll let you know how that works out for me.

A lot of the debuff trees in the hacker discipline are more usable as team abilities than solo.  It'll be far more efficient for you to burn an enemy's resistance, defence, IS and health and allow some random tank to finish them off than to try to do it all yourself.

Plus, a lot of the low-level abilities for each discipline take up a whole lot of memory space.  If you load up to Virologist and up to Gunman, you've already eaten away at least half your memory slots and it's very difficult to effectively load two trees from two different areas.  Two trees from the same area are much easier - destroyer and howitzer, ravager and ballista, etc.

in CR1 that was a awesome load out, you could kill with just a few debuffs and free fires with clamors

To be honest, it's not worth your time. If anything, you MIGHT be able to get away with it one on one, but it's still a far stretch.
