This play through I’m going for a Mox inspired V and I think it would be cool if she could quick hack while also beating people over the head with a bat! Would this be possible or would it be to unbalanced? Also I’m planing on playing the game on hard mode if that matters.

Of course u can, actually it sounds kinda fire, paralizing ur targets and then beating the shit out of then.
About being unbalanced, every build can be unbalanced if you use it well so i think ur fine
Yeah youd be able to no probs
You are describing a Smart Shotgun build, I’ve only fooled around with one once but it was pretty fun
By the endgame you’ll have like 3 attributes leveled to max and a few spare points for the other two
Thats the build similar to mine right now and i feel unstoppable especially with the right chrome upgrades
You can use cyberware to enhance strenght so yes
Yes definitely, if I were to make such a build I’d prolly go 20 int 20 body 20 tech 18 reflex 3 cool, take all 3 perk trees in int (skipping the perks you won’t use), the left and middle perk trees in body, the middle perk tree in tech along with the health item perks, and the air dash perks in reflex. I’d prolly run smart shotguns, though unfortunately you can’t get an iconic one till you complete an ending. Perhaps monowire or gorilla arms too, but gorilla arms like the right perk tree in body so you would need to skimp on perks elsewhere. You could also skip the right perk tree in int and use non-smart weapons, but this is a personal preference. For cyberdeck, if you’re using smart shotguns the militech paraline is great, if not it’s up to personal preference on what you think will work best. Other cyberware can just be filled with meta options across the board, focusing on defense and survival.
My first run was this! It’s stupidly fun since you can pair gorilla fists with AOE hacks like contamination and overheat to play at really any range.
It gets even better when you invest in movement to always keep youself from being a snail.
To use hacking properly in this game you NEED high body aside from max intelligence. Overclocking is the key mechanic that lets you hack unlimitedly with your health, and you need that body tree to get as much health and health regen as possible to supply hacking.
Of course when you max body tree you also get access to the shotgun and blunt weapon tree which you can spec into if you’d like.
The gun from smashers stash is perfect for that build .
My moment has com… wait a mox netrunner?
Yes. My Nomad V is a quick hack/ blunt weapons build. The trick is to NOT use OP hacks and stick to stuff like cyberware malfunction, cripple movement, contagion and weapon glitch for example. Then I finish them off with whatever blunt weapon I’m digging at the moment. Good fun.
To be honest you become OP anyway no matter what build you go. It’s virtually impossible to make an unworkable build.
You have to be exceptionally bad at this game to not become a god of death.
Full body and intelligence is an awesome combination, highly recommend. I quite often play a hacking build with full body. I mix Overclock with Adrenaline Rush and it’s just hacks for days.
You will have enough points to fully max 3 attributes with some left over.
Yep. It’ll be a blast.
You can do anything you want, they balanced the game in a way that every weird and odd strategy you try to do will work out, i did a run in which i used 0 guns and it worked out perfectly (apart from johnny missions ofc)
Why?
Yeah, that’s my build i’m playing. I abuse the fact that there is a cyberdeck that lets you spend health instead of RAM to hack so i just spam instant kill hacks. I then refill hp with the stim and just spam more hacks. When overdrive runs out I fight with gorilla hands. I pretty much never shoot or need a weapon with build since no gun is strong than your body and mind.
I normally play a hacker/gunslinger – pistols
Toss a few hacks, toss some lead.. or toss some lead, then hack anything left… depending on the situation.
Yes you can! I tend to start tech, and then build into either strength or intelligence since tech gives you armor.
At the end I have those 3 maxed out and switch out perks based on how I’m playing. Those give you so much flexibility you can make drastic changes to your play-style every 10 hours and make it feel fresh.
I did a sword net runner build for my first playthrough. Didn’t even know what that sandevistan thingy was for the longest time.
Ohhhh so there were builds? I always wonder why o could finish the game without applying any of this things correctly. Like I was always under leveled, but at the same time overpowered since the game wasn’t hard whatsoever
Yes my dude, you finish the game with 81 points. Which gives you 2 realistic options
1. Max 3 of them(20/20), make 1 (15/20) and 1 (6/20)
Or number 2
2. Max 1 and have the other 4 at 15/20
The real question is which to level first
1. Body – Easier gameplay, more aggressive
2. Int – harder gameplay at first but more cash moneys thanks to data mining
Yep. I’d recommend investing in intelligence first.
No. You’re not allowed.
I dumped int so by the end i had 20 cool, 20 technica, 20 body, 17 reflex, and 3 intelligence.
You can absolutely do both, but you can’t use berserker or sandevistan as you’ll probably need a netrunner deck to get anything out of intelligence
20 INT / 20 BODY is the got damned funnest shit ever in this game. Do a blunt weapons/control hacks build and you will have tons of fun.
