About the PR
Replaces C4 with Breaching Charges
Why / Balance
I believe this was a needed change due to the lethality that C4 can cause. This was made in attempt to prevent Thief murder due to C4 being a pacifist implant bypass. The Breaching Charge is a structural targeting explosive that has near to none player damage unless on the same tile, even then not even crit'ing a completely unarmored person.
Due to Breaching Charges being weaker though, a third charge was added to the kit to compensate. Though is it better suited for the kits whole point of existing, to breach into areas and steal items.
I'd love to talk more in detail about this if you guys have differing opinions
Edit: In testing breaching charge does about 90 damage to unarmored crew on top of it, while the C4 does staggeringly much more with insta crit and bleed
