- The Shiawase Loader arm automatically throws back any grenades that land near you. Useful, but: you need strength to throw grenades accurately, arm cyberware slots have a lot of other neat choices, and Duncan has this as an upgrade option.

Duncan: the tier 6 Magnet arm (catch and throw back grenades) is straight up silly overpowered. Cluster in groups, bait grenades, profit.

Is0bel: you can buy her tier 4 Espionage upgrade (+40% Matrix move speed) at Maximum Law's for 500 nuyen and loan it to her if you're so inclined. The 6 extra Fire damage DoT on the grenade launcher (which is great, by the way) is worth either putting up with slower Matrix movement or a nominal investment.

Gobbet: the tier 5 Plague Wall spell is actually a reusable inventory item with a cooldown, which lets you fill that other slot with any other spell you desire without pushing anything off her default loadout. There's a case to be made for the free Devil Rat token if you've invested heavily in the Spirituality track, but Plague Wall is special.

Gaichu: this may be obvious to you, but it wasn't to me; his tier 3 Shuriken Toss is a Strength attack, which means that it deals the listed 12 damage plus Gaichu's Strength and it pops cover.

Racter: Spec his drone to be a sniper or a melee beast. Mixing and matching doesn't work that well.
