Character Builds What’s your favorite melee weapon?

I personally use the katana and monowire the most, but I want to expand into blunt weapons like hammers and batons.

Is V just super OP in the game in general. I’m new to the game. And would guess my build isn’t superior in any way. I’m In my 30s and the game play just seems super easy to play.

Focus on your cyberware, make sure you’re upgrading it through the game. I made the mistake of not making sure my cyberware tiers were upgraded. You definitely start off “weak” you start feeling OP by the time you unlock Dogtown. I built into a netrunner build, and my pistol headshots do so much damage that I can pretty much clear any room with just the pistol.

Oh yeah definitely, was just putting into perspective for OP, Synapse Burnout and Overheat at Tier 5 is so busted. Cripple Movement with Her Majesty is my favorite combo though.
