In Cyberpunk 2077 , in addition to the standard leveling up and the subsequent distribution of stats and abilities points, as well as finding the best types of armor and weapons, you can improve V with numerous cyber implants.
Excessive use of cyber implants has led to the emergence of cyberpsychosis. Over time, most people who had a cyber implant in themselves began to suffer from this disease. The patient became uninterested in life as such, he did not sleep, did not eat, did not feel anything. The only thing he needed was more, even more implants.
How the cyber implant system works
All of them are divided into the following categories:
- Frontal lobe
- Optical system (no legendary/iconic options)
- Circulatory system
- The immune system
- Nervous system
- Leather
- Operating system (only for this there are iconic options, in other cases – only legendary)
- Skeleton
- Palms
- Hands
- Legs
With some exceptions, you should look for new cyber implants from rippers scattered throughout Night City. There are a total of 14 different rippers in the game, including Victor Vector and two characters that you can eliminate. You will meet Fingers during the game’s plot, and if you decide to beat him, he will refuse to serve V in the future. Finally, in one of the orders or side quests (both take place in the same place) you will meet another ripper who will say that he has nothing to do with the bandits. It is true, but if you decide not to believe him, you will have to kill the target. In both cases, you will deprive yourself of the opportunity to buy some legendary types of implants!
Finally, in addition to the monetary side of the issue, you will have to make sure that the selected implants are suitable for the level of a specific characteristic. Also, a certain level of reputation may be required to purchase an implant. And if V doesn’t match it, you won’t even be able to purchase the item. On the other hand, if you buy an implant that is available by reputation level, you will need to check whether you meet the basic requirement for the characteristic (this can be any of the five characteristics!).
There are also shortcomings in the system. So, don’t even try to look for the legendary cyber implants for the legs and optical system. And for skin there is only one option for implants of varying rarity. Although there are 3 slots available, you can only fill one of them with an implant of the desired rarity. But for other categories of choice, there may be more legendary implants than available slots!
