Priority

Player characters are made by assigning each category: Spark, Mode, Experience, and Hardware, a letter priority; one each of A, B, C, D.

Priorities A+ and E also exist, and are used in some circumstances.

This table shows the points in each category based on priority.

Priority	A+	A	B	C	D	E
Spark	20	18	16	14	12	10
Mode	34	30	26	22	18	14
Experience	18	16	14	12	10	8
Hardware	5	4	3	2	0	-

Note that Hardware Complications can reduce the cost of a single Hardware Quality to zero, allowing characters with Hardware Priorities of D to have a piece of Hardware.
