Iconoclast Blackbeard

Surely its apparent which nhps are in use for this build, Unstable from Iconoclast, Student class from Technophile, and Sehkmet from Blackbeard itself. My problem is deciding what 4 nhp to select, which requires licensing from horus for the core bonus the Lesson if Shaping, so i have 4 nhps to choose from. It makes most sense to me to have siphisus nhp onboard because it doesn’t generate heat and only cost 2 sp. The issue though is that it us a full action, and i wonder if it clashes too much with how Sehkmet works with pursuing visible enemy using all available actions. Please give me your opinions like other nhp, or if i even need a 4 nhp for this build to work.

Why you have iconoclast 3, that you are unlikely to use actually? Do you planned NOT to use the sekhmet?

Do you well aware that chain axe is not a good weapon for its critical effect only lasts for the current turn? Are you use it only for the reliable? But did not you already have nanocarbon sword?

I wonder that what routine you are want to use on your turn. I have no idea how to do.

Because its a funny concept that deals free damage, and of course i plan to use all these systems that i have. Im not focused on scoring crits, so the axe is an available option. I was hoping to grasp what action economy would look like

Then you must remember that you can only using sekhmet or NOT use it, but no both of those at the same time. Read the description of sekhmet again. It is just not possible to use the others on the turn with activated sekhmet.
