Suppressed Criticality
Cyberpunk 2077
Stealth Headshot
build
Published · Updated

Picture this. You're the god of speed and invisibility, but a good sniper bullet can kill you quite easily. Introducing suppressed criticality! A stealth build with the tankiest cyberware equipped to make up for the fact you're as easily squishable as that annoying summer fly that you can never kill!

HOW YOU WILL LEVEL UP

Start off with 4 body, 6 cool and 6 tech. Get cool, tech and reflexes to nine, then start investing in cool (COOL FIRST), reflexes and tech till they all reach 20. Then dump the rest into strength.

Cool

THE GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT TOP PRIORITY Got everything you need for stealth and critical headshots! If you ever want to, you can reinvest throwable melee perks into reflexes' katana too!

Technical Ability

Healing is your best friend, so is edgerunner. Invested in every health perk and cyberware for that sweet sweet armour.

Reflexes

Purely twenty for the sole purpose of tailwind. You need to keep moving at all times if in the case that you get caught. Tailwind immediately regenerates stamina used for mid air dashes, keeping you moving.

Body

Body is dump stat, alternitavely you can use intelligence but in the end you would be making yourself one shot. So heavily reccomended you put the rest into strength

Intel

Who uses intel bro We don't need none of those bum quickhacks

Weapons

La Chingona Dorada

The critical hit demon, feeds off of critical hits like an stressed out mother of 3 eating breakfast protein bars while being late for her 3 jobs. Suppressor for stealth, recoil reduction when you're in combat!

I WANT HER MAJESTY SO BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD 😭

Overwatch

This is for the big scary guys when you are currently in stealth and don't know if La Chingona Dorada won't finish the job. Always guarenteed kills on skull bosses with the perk arrangements.

Nehan

Nehan is my favourite throwable weapon in the game, however you are always free to use katanas instead if you would like to involve reflexes a bit more!

Obviously you'll have optical camo perk, so you won't need it to be in the grenade slot. I did my best to think about what would be the best item for stealth.

Or you can use Ozob's noze, I don't care.
