Cyberpunk 2077
The players have plenty of flexibility in choosing their ideal build for Cyberpunk 2077. Broken builds can destroy enemies in a flash.
In addition to being among the most impressive instances of Raytracing in video games, Cyberpunk 2077also excels in the gameplay. It is an RPG that provides players with an array of different gameplay styles. It is even able to compete with Elder Scrollsgames in terms of building options. The great thing about games with this play-style is that they allow players to build some stunning designs.

Cyberpunk 2077is not new to powerful builds because of the limitations of the developers and what players were able to experiment with. No matter the number of playthroughs they’ve played, players will be able to find an element of strength to be able to compete against a massive corporation such as Arasaka.
Updated on November 1st, 2022, by Sid Natividad. Thanks to Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Cyberpunk 2077 has now enjoyed some sort of soft redemption. It seems that the cyberpunk show has shone more light on how enjoyable it is for players to experience the games using some of the most vile Cyberpunk models. As it turns out, David, Lucy, and Rebecca have build designs that are based on the game, and are meant to be a bit overpowered which could be the reason for their endurance and longevity against the elite of Arasaka’s.
David Sandevistan
| Weapon | All, but Gorilla Arms is the most friendly to lore Projectile Launcher HJKE-11 Yukimura Weapon pistol |
| Armor | Any armor or mod that has Crit Chance as well as Crit Damage |

This Sandevistan model is very like it’s predecessor, the Sandevistan Samurai, except it places more emphasis in Brawler. Brawler the perk tree changing David into a raging flurry of punches, with lightning-fast moves thanks to Sandevistan. Additionally, players can decrease the time it takes for Sandevistan to cool down by utilizing Heatsink and Bioconductor upgrade.
If you aren’t relying on Sandevistan and other advantages let the build move more quickly, and certain neural implants, such as the Kerenzikov are used as backups. It also reduces the time for participants in the similar way like Sandevistan however with a greater emphasis on ranged combat.
Rebecca Shotgun
| Weapon | Guts (custom Power Shotgun) M-76e Omaha |
| Armor | Any armor, or armor mod that has Crit Chance or Crit Damage |
| Cyberdeck | Militech Berserk Mk. 5 Heal-On-Kill The Mechatronic Core Biomonitor Bioconductor Second Heart Kerenzikov Subdermal Armor Smart Link Gorilla Arms |

Like similar to Carnage Shotgun build, this build, appropriately called Rebecca is focused on providing her with the most power feasible with her game-specific shotgun Guts. Unfortunately, there’s no shotgun with dual-wielding capabilities inside Cyberpunk 2077 which means that players won’t be able to exactly replicate how Rebecca behaves during combat.

However, it’s an ineffective alternative. The players can simply attack enemies thanks of the implant Kerenzikov, and attack the enemies right in the face, slamming through all targets as if they were the meat grinder, the blood of their victims flying around. The gameplay is fairly straightforward. There’s no need to be a pro since the shotgun Annihilation bonuses and Cold Blood does the bulk of the job.
Cyber Demon/Lucy Monowire
| Weapon | Monowire |
| Armor | Any armor or mods that include Crit Chance or Crit Damage |
| Cyberdeck | Netwatch Netdrive Mk.5 Optical Camo Kerenzikov Maneuvering System Bioconductor |
| Stat Allocation | Body 20 Intelligence – 20 Cool 20 – 20 |

| Quickhacks | Short Circuit Overheat Infection Suicide Ping Cyberpsychosis |
The Lucy build is like it’s Netgun or Gun hacker builds but eliminates the Smart weapon in favor of something that is more intimate and personal that is the Monowire. The Monowire is an unbalanced weapon, therefore players need to go to the Body to access the Body Street Brawler aspect of the perk tree.
But, it’s not completely required. The players will prioritize the mentioned perks within the intelligence tree (Quickhacking or Breach Protocol). In battle they’ll be opening up by using Ping and then Contagion and finally Short Circuit or Overheat, in accordance with the distance of the enemy. The ones who are close enough will be cut to pieces with the Monowire.
Crit Headshot
| Weapon | Silenced Moron Labe Silenced Dying Night The Silenced Death of Taxes and the Quiet Death Any pistol or rifle with silence |
| Armor | Any armor, or armor mod that boosts the chance of sustaining Crit Chance or Damage |
| Cyberdeck | Qiant Sandevistan Mk.4 Kerenzikov Nanorelays Kiroshi Optics Mk.3 Mechanical Core Microgenerator Treat it like a Kill Optical Camo Subdermal Armor Heatsink Bioconductor |

For those looking for something less theatrical and more standard such as the Crit Headshot build from creator T7 PDM is more than enough to please them. It makes use of Optical Camo and the Kerenzikov or Sandevistan to reduce the speed of play and allow players to headshot almost all opponents in an battle.
Due to the perk as well as Crit stacking that can result in Crit Damage of 900 percent or even 100 percent change in Crit can be achieved. It is just a matter of making sure they’re entering combat using Sandevistan and take a headshot (preferably in stealth using the use of a silenced weapon). This will trigger an array of buffs which will ensure that subsequent headshots are more deadly and less difficult to execute.
Contagion
| Weapon | Any |
| Armor | Any |
| Cyberdeck | Tetratronic Rippler Mk.4 Implants that boost cooldown of RAM Implants that are able to spread Quickhacks |
| Stat Allocation | Intelligence – 20 Cool 20 Technical Capacity 20 Body 6Reflexes 5 |
| Perks | All perks in Intelligence Cold Blood benefits relating to quickhacks in Cool Stealth-related perks are available in Cool |
| Quickhacks | Infection Short Circuit Breach Protocol Ping Reboot Optics Suicide |
Contagion, also known as poison hackers were the talk of the town prior to the update 1.5 because of their innate killing power. The players who were using the previous build will be happy to know that Contagion isn’t completely powerful. It was changed from an 11 to 10 as a result of the balance adjustments in patch 1.5. The gameplay is exactly the same.

The players begin with Breach Protocol first, followed by Ping the next, followed by Contagion against a group of foes. Following that the time has come to take a break and observe their health deteriorate collectively. When it comes to single-targeted targets, Short Circuit or Suicide is a good choice. Cameras can also be useful because they allow players to remain in the shadows.
Stealth Pistol
| Weapon | Power Pistol/Revolver which has the highest amount of damage for each shot (not DPS) Silencer modification on the pistol Overwatch (sniper for backup) |
| Armor | Any armor or mod that boosts the chance of sustaining Crit Chance or Damage |

For the most stealthy design for the game of Cyberpunk 2077,players need not search any more than this build. It’s the hitman, who shoots opponents behind their heads with silenced pistols or revolvers. This requires some strategic skills, position and some perseverance, however it’s also slick and smart.

For a smoother sneaking experience players can make use from the Big Sleep daemon, which closes all cameras within the area. Then, it’s an issue of eliminating opponents one by one. Try to get headshots every time.

All of the passive and trigger effects in the Annihilation tree ensure that players can either tank efficiently or move in such a way that enemies aren’t able to react. It’s also the case that the damage of shotguns increase depending on the speed at which they move in the Annihilation bonus.

It is even more damaging in the event that enemies are hit by the Crit attack. If it is paired by weapons which shoot quickly and fire a lot of rounds (such as smart weapons) The Short Circuit will make short job of any enemy.
Sandevistan Samurai
| Weapon | Jinchu Maru (or the most destructive Katana that is available in the stock) Knives |

If you’re looking for a melee build which isn’t only about cutting enemies into ribbons with a katana this build is incredibly effective. The first step is to begin by throwing knives at their opponents head before switching to an Katana. The act of throwing the knife does more than poison the enemies but also triggers an enormous Ninjutsu-based damage boost that lasts for 6 seconds.
To get the most benefit of this boost players can make use of the Sandevistan to reduce the time they spend in the game, and also be faster due to all the passives they’ve taken. It’s a shame that players aren’t able to see their actions in real-time since a samurai who’s juiced up flying through the enemy at lightning speed should make Cyberpsychos appear smug.
