  6. I added Synaptic Accelator to slow time when I'm in enemy's sight allowing you to take 2 or 3 shots if your Overture did not one shot enemies, and avoiding detection. ExDisk for additional RAM, limbic and Visual Cortex for Crit chance increase. (of course, around act2)
    Before even starting Act2, clear out every single Watson and Westbrook Gig and NCPD hustle, while collecting some of legendary clothing pieces. also hack every single access points to get free hacks and components. They are very easy to do (although being grass cannon, you want to avoid being found. If your cover is blown before taking out majority of enemies, reload save.) and will give you enough money to buy better deck:NetWatch MK5 or TetraMk4 and cyberware (before starting GIM mission/I walk the line, you only want to do this with stealth, no fight except for Sasquatch, she's very easy boss fight) very soon after you wake up in Pacifica after finishing with VDB. Just go downstairs and the ripper will sell Cortex cyberwares. (also clear out gig where you steal Van and unlock moron labe from NCPD scanner) get skippy at some point as well. You should be opening every crate for Armadillo and Crunch craft specs
    You want to reach Int20 as soon as possible, then craft18 for edgerunner artisian, Cool next.

    now you are done with Automatic Love/VDB quest line, you can start other Act2 missions. (Only then should you start Gohst town/Panam questline) clear out Badland Gigs and get decent enough eddies, go back to Takemura questline, get ShingenMk5, do parade mission, fight Oda (Flashbang/CrippleMovement is useful as well as Widow maker) clear River and paralez questline to get Crash, upgrade and use it as Silence kill gun from then.
    And now you should have Devil ending unlocked, do Nocturn OP and get access to Ba Xing Chong. nolw equip Gorilla arm and you can bypass most of StrengthCheck, but 80% of the time you should be able to open it with technical ability.

    Clear out Heywood and City Center/Other side missions and you become NC legend.

    That is how I usually build my character, Pretty exploit-ish but after you bought everything you can buy, you should still easily have million eddies left.
    But if you are going for any kind of netrunner/stealth build, you should really hack every access point you can find. it's going to pay you back alsso selling duplicate hacks will earn you some cash.

    Sorrry for very long comment, my explanation is not the best but I hope this very very rougly written tip helped some people

  8. Very interesting build but i always feel like i am missing out a lot when not getting cool , 15% dmg on humans is op , and has other perks that make you tankier than if you were to innvest in body combined with movement speed and being hard to notice . Also its very strong early game , so i would actually swap techincal ability as it doesn't offer as much as you loose by not going cool . I have also noticed that cool aboslutely cover any diadvantages this build has sucha as being squishy . And its not good idea to fight head on when vunreble especially against group of enemies.

    Btw how many hours do you have in this game i swear i sometimes see thing for the first time even though i finished the game multiple times

  9. I'm currently playing a Ninja/Samurai build
    Using Sandevistan and some times SMGs
    StreetKid origin
    And it's pretty Glass Canon

    I currently one shot almost everything with trowing knifes but most enemies also can kill me with a couple of shots
    I am aiming for the Don't fear the reaper ending and I will let Jonny keep my body
    She is pretty bloodthirsty
    And I'm going to make everyone angry (Judy, Panam, etc..) so in the end she will only have Johnny
    My street kid also hates corpos so the devil ending is a no no
    This is my second run and is pretty much the opposite of my first build:

    Corpo Tank Berserk user that focus on Shotguns and LMGs that finish with the Sun Ending (Judy Romance)

    My next build is going to be a Quickhack Marksman of Nomad origin
    Panam Baby Here I come

  10. System Reset with the Tetratronic Rippler is super useful because of the 'Ultimate quickhack spreads once' perk of that cyberdeck. Can take out 2 at a time and enemies don't react to them falling, and have to discover the bodies to go into searching mode. I'm running Suicide, Sonic Shock, Synapse Burnout, Contagion, System Reset & Short Circuit for the synergy of the passives (you cause enemies to panic a lot, so that could be useful to a glass cannon build), only really using System Reset & Short Circuit. Try that combo out if you're running a low Body build like this.

  14. Nice vid, looks like a fun build. Regarding your question on what type of build do we tend to pick, for me at least, it really depends on the playthrough. I tend to give my V (and other protagonists in other games too), a sort of meta-personality beyond whatever the game allows. This is usually a guideline for me when making RP choices for that character, based on what they would be motivated to do. For example, when I made a Nomad V, I decided that version of V, was a die hard Samurai fanboy. Grew up listening to the old tracks from his parents as they wandered the wastelands on their way to settling down in the Night City area. So he lived and breathed Johnny Silverhand. So his entire build, was around replicating Johnny Silverhand as best I could (that might be a fun build idea for a future video by the way. Replicating Johnny's combat stuff as seen in the game). But I build him with high Body scores, because Johnny had some crazy HP and insane health regen in combat. Pistols because duh, and brawl, because he also loved punching people with his cyberarm. I also built into Cold Blood and Tech to allow some upgrading and improve the penetration of Johnny's pistol, but CB mostly just for the increased dmg/survivability in combat via the CB stacks. It was a fun build. My Corpo went pure katana as combat, and high tech/INT as well.

    Other times I just try and find fun ways to play around with the mechanics without exploiting. Like just how helpless can you make a group of badguys, via stacking multiple debuffs through the Breach Protocol, and then attacking directly? Answer, quite a lot! xD If I'm just playing the game, and not trying to fiddle with builds, I usually default to one of the many OP netrunner builds, and just not bother with open combat at all. Or at least not with things so mundane as….*gags* weaponry! xD

  15. You, my boy, are the reason I'm running through very hard, very easily. Because of your "#2" top cyberdeck. I was using your #1 cyberdeck already before your video ever found me. And I was a bit underwhelmed about the upload time, but damn that Rippler is the 🐐, just like you. So on behalf of my 170 hours plus, I thank you, sir.

  16. This almost exactly how I build and play! I target 18 reflexes, 18 tech, 16 cool, and 16 intelligence. Great combo of hacking, gunning, and grenades, and blades. I LIKE being a glass cannon because Very hard becomes Very easy if you can tank through everything.

  17. This stuff was the kinda thing I went with standard. Hacking + Guns can be pretty fun but yeah you go down real quick if you don't fry everything near you with hacks and bullets. Also with a side of stealth knife throwing mostly for curiosity but definitely good for a starting stealth weapon.

  20. I played Cyberpunk vanilla unmodded. And I just wish to share with you from my experience. My net-runner build was already OP beginning from LEVEL 11even before Heist, before the PICK-UP mission to get that robot from Royce. I had Expert level quick-hacks by then.

    How do you achieve that? …It's simple, when you first start customizing…Put everything into intelligence and then every time you level up (up to level 11) add Intelligence. If you did it right, you will have 20 Intelligence by level 11 (or 19 intelligence I think not sure, that was last year I played). And then pick every perk that helps reduces quick-hack cooldowns (except in Cool, cold-blood ones, that one pick later on). And then remember from early on you want that perk that allows you to get "quick-hack components" from hacking data-terminals and perks that allow you to craft more advanced level quick-hacks. Then go around Watson, solving every NCPD scanner and Side-hustle and Gig (NO cyber-psychos just yet)…AND as you do them, make sure to Hack successfully every data- terminal for those quick hack components. If you did ALL NCPD scans and Gigs in Watson, you will have reached level 11 and you have tonnes of quick hack components. Get the STEPHENSONS's Mk.3 hack-deck that reduces cooldowns of quick-hack by 50% (or was it 45%? I can't remember exactly). Then if you also took some breach-protocols that allow reduction in quick-hack cooldowns….by level 11 you will be powerful enough to just take cover and quick hack every single enemy NPC in every gig sometimes without ever even setting foot into the base…just go proxy camera to camera (or if you really need to get close , you can do it behind cover for areas that lack camera systems or have enemies in areas that can't be seen by camera). I remember with the Legendary Ping (initial one) back then, I never even needed to set foot anywhere…I just sat in my vehicle and just ping everyone and quick hack em from my outside the area and just walk into an empty base full of corpses and just loot everything. NET runner build is over-powered like crazy if done right… you can overpowered all the way from low level 11.

  22. I've got a variant of this I call the "Netbruiser," basically a Body variation of this which mostly focuses on laying down hate with LMGs while throwing out Quickhacks until someone closes in, then I hit 'em with a Short Circuit while I switch to shotgun and blap 'em in the face. A lot of fun honestly, and really tough to kill

  23. Yyyyyeeeeess Builds, always a big fan of build vids.

    Personally never gave Cripple Movement a second thought. But after trying at a Jedi Survivor build, I can attest to cripple movement being a top of the order quick hack.

    Granted I made my build bulky (13 B, 18 R, 12 I, 14 T, and 14 C) outside of Black Unicorn, most iconic katanas can only get to epic, as per crafting but some can be enhanced by Field Technician. Can swap in a little pistol perks if needed, of which I chose to stick to Malorian.
    Deck’s Rippler (because of course) cripple (slow), whistle, Ping( if you want it), backup, Cyberpsychosis (force confuse), Detonate (pushing explosives), and always has Circuit somewhere in the middle (less likely to use since it’s in the center, used primarily for the crit proc)

    Anyone crazy and on console like me, the Gift bug seems to be both related to a hidden ID of the V made, and/or selling the ping hack given. Typically with these Datamine Virtuoso builds I tend to just hold on to all pings I pick up until I have the hacks at legendary I’m looking for.

  24. I want to seek fun, diversity and effectiveness within a build but diversity causes one problem. I've got too many builds I want to try.

    TechRunner
    Weapons – Archillies, Omaha, Nekomata and Emp Grenades.
    Quickhacks – System Reset, Cripple Movement, Optics and Weapons Jammer
    Pretty much just hack enemies to disrupt them and make them more vulnerable to the tech weapons or throw Emp Grenades and shoot them with the Omaha or Archilles. The Quickhacks should support the tech weapons, not replace them.
    Max Reflex and Tech. High Int.

    Banshee
    Quickhacks – Most Legendary Quickhacks, Cripple Movement, Sonic Shock, Optics and Weapons Jammer
    Weapons – Katana, Tsunami Nue, Mantis Blades and Ashura.
    Just wreak death with the Quickhacks. Cripple the movement of a few enemies and just walk up to them and Katana them. Sometimes you can pick off a straggler by using the Epic Sonic Shock to isolate them and just Katana them. (Needs to be epic or everyone gets alerted. You need to stash/sell legendary sonic shocks to equip an epic variant). Nue is just a nice pistol so use it sometimes, preferably not silenced. Ashura and Mantis Blades are just for fun. Felt fitting and rounded out the build nicely
    Max Int and Cool. High Reflex.

    Oni/Cyber Daemon
    Berserk – Militech or Zetatech with Beast Mode mod
    Weapons – Katana, Mantis Blades, Kyubi, SQR
    You could add Throwing Knives or a Kanabo if that suits you but I let the rifles that the samurai adopted inspire me. So I chose to add the Kyubi and SQR to my kit. Don't forget to add the Menpo, Kabuto and a good jacket. You can probably guess how to play this build. Note that pairing any sort of gun with this build is really fun.
    Max Body, Reflex and Cool (cold blood). I don't need to craft when I can buy good gear

    Other than those, I have a few others that aren't well defined or planned. More like ideas at the moment.

  25. Netrunning kind of trivalise the game to me , without being particularly fun . I like to go 20 reflex and tech , to craft whatever i want and make tech weapons worth it while having access optimising all types of rifles and msg . Also investing 12 in body to access athletic perks and avoid being a glass canon . A sandevistan and gorilla arms and the core of the build is there , also a smart link and optical camo are cool additions .it's very flexible , any kind of weapon can be efficient with it . For the remaining points , a few can be put in body to reach 20 ( with gorilla arms ) or you can invest in blade or stealth with cool . It's very versatile , you can do everything and have different approach , you just cant netrun but personaly i just dont find netrunning to be satisfaying .
