1-SHOT Pistol Build is INSANE! Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty 2.0 Build Guide (Very Hard Difficulty)

Yoo guys, Moxsy here with my pistol build guide for 2.0. This build just kinda cheeses the hardest difficulty content in the game. It is genuinely such a power fantasy. Hope you enjoy the breakdown.

Your timing is perfect. I'm going to be starting a new playthrough tomorrow and I wanted a pistol build!

[stevenrandall]

Love the video bro been watching for a while. Keep up the great work man

It makes sense that Optical Camo makes you invisible, even to yourself,
But I still hate it.
It's useful, can lead to some fun playstyles, yes, but I want to see my reticle.

Since this is a Pistol Build you can save the Perk Point on "Nerves of Tungsten-Steel" as it does NOT work with Pistols. Its tooltip explicitly reads "Only affects Revolvers, Precision Rifles and Sniper Rifles".

Cyberpunk 2077 has changed a lot after patch 2.0. apparently, the reward from the Shoot To Thrill side quest (Wilson's shooting contest) has become an iconic weapon, the Lexington x-MOD2, which has 175% headshot damage. also, iirc, "Sandy" mods overdrive the users nervous system, at least in pre-2.0, they did not accelerate projectile speed, which is why people usually paired Sandy mods with melee

Great video and great explanation of all!

[nelsongodoy]

I've opted out of stealth, in favor of a loud revolver-based gunslinger build. I use the points saved in stealth to max out the damage and number of explosives I can launch from my arm.

LIE-Kuh The good girl the soviets sent into space. That's the pronunciation for the iconic Burya pistol (The last one).

I've been working on an Agent build myself using silenced weapons but instead of Sandevistan, I'm trying to make it work with a cyberdeck that mostly has Covert / Control hacks and it's interesting cause using hacking to control and incapacitate others before executing them with a bullet to the head is pretty fun. It's not as optimal, but it's a cool cyber Agent fantasy.

[bantoniow]

great idea for build! definitely trying this out

btw

that thumbnail is just some random picture / fanart or maybe some mod??

[Devin-O]

Would you be able to link a build planner as well?

[Garitmo]

its like you are listening through my speaker what I am saying :D I found different versions of a Pistol build and was confused. Question: isn't it confusing and hard to aim, when the pistol goes also invisible? and thanks for all content :D

[EraclesK]

Thank you again, what do you think of using commanders hammer pistol

[V.A.C]

ive been running this with jackys pistols, gotta say that combo with supressors on them + this build goes pretty damn hard, infinite ammo and being able to 1 shot damn near everything is craaaazy

[uukrul]

Best pistol in the game is Rogue's Pride. Does more damage w/o camo shenanigans, the only downside that you have to rush one of game endings.

[CentauriTT]

How would one spec this with maybe a quick hack oriented build as well? Before patch 2.0 I was running a pistol/netrunner build but after the update dunno how to build it.

[Tomogara]

thanks, im stuck in a very hard mode blind playthrough vs adam smasher, just cant beat him with just the jhonny pistol, gonna try this one :)

[wickermind]

Behold, the evolved version of the skyrim stealth archer.

[janovmi]

When it comes to CD, how Is it calculated ? Does % reduction apply before or after flat seconds reductions ? I think the same question/answer appliee to RAM costs but thats different build :-)

[pointnemo]

The Lexington x-mod2 iconic power pistol, i believe you get it from the gun seller Wilson if you play his gun game and get 100/100.
Mods: Firecracker iconic mod, tier 4 Pyro mod.
Suppressor: tier 5 XC-10 CENTUS.
Fully auto pistol does an amazing job.
Cyborwere: tier 5 Microgenerator in the hands give you a 280-300 EMP bullet blast every time you reload an empty weapon.
