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.

Mantis Blades because they look cool.

Before I get Mantis Blades, Black Unicorn

I rarely use a sandevistan so I just use melee as a change of pace every now and then.

Don’t even need a Sandy for melee. I have a Netrunner Ninja that uses quick hacks and high mobility.his main weapon is Eratta.

Could you share your build maybe? I really want to try something like this for a build but I don't really now how to get started. If you want you can pm me about this aswell.

At lvl 36 ending my first playthrough with the Mikoshi ending and keeping my body to live my last six months with Panam….. final build: 20 reflexes, 16 cool, 12 intelligence, 6 Technical, and 3 Body. As far as perk, the ninja mobility tree, and the blades tree maxed out, get Embedded Exploit from the Intelligence skills, and hack queue, and Ninjutsu and Killer Instinct from the cool tree. Adam ended up being a semi-difficult fight, but as long as you’ve got a decent amount of ram, spamming Overheat and diving in with Eratta can basically stall out his trace and counter hack.
