The Ghost of Night City: Cybernetic Assassin Build with Throwing Knives & Mantis Blades in CP77 2.1!

[@CostelloDamian]

I've been saying this every time somebody asks "why would you ever use blades over katana" well because it gives you an extra knife slot - simple

[@BowForGlory]

Well katanas are just better apparently is what people say.

[@ShadowProject01]

@@BowForGlory they are fir the most part. Far stronger, faster swings and more combos and attacks. Mantis blade just mainly swing wildly until body parts everywhere ensues. Though Phantom Liberty helped with Mantis Blade viability a lot.

[@BowForGlory]

@@ShadowProject01 I think katanas just suck compared to mantis blades. If you wanna talk about melee viability then body blunt weapons Trump's all, imo.

[@Dumbsourplum]

It's better for roleplay purposes too, it's a lot easier to lose grip of a sword than blades jutting out of your arms

[@wheezel3481]

This build is completely awesome! Using it with the Corpo background gives a sort of Batman-esque vigilante vibe that I love

[@hordynaelmf]

Ever video is a new story dlc.

[@kylerector3833]

Just remember. You can do the same thing. It’s just that not matter what,,, you’re name is V

[@leviathan5207]

Homie just wrote a novel and disguised it as a character build video.

[@AR-db1vp]

Great work, thank you! Build is looking very powerful and fun to play, will definitely use for my next CP2077 playthrough. Love how you are always trying new styles and making your videos better and better each time!

[@Dalfang]

Thanks for the support :) Glad you're enjoying the videos! Been working on making the builds more concise and engaging, so hopefully it's going in the right direction!

[@rammy4671]

Incredible job. Loved that the guide felt like a story. And thank you for including the details in the description as well.

[@tylermckernan4838]

Not gonna lie, been checking this channel multiple times a day waiting for this video

[@AR-db1vp]

Same here

[@michaelcatalfano4242]

Wonderful work again, Dalfang!

[@MidTierVillain]

This is gonna be my next build, I may drop the Almighty Rune King Thor build- somehow my Thor Hammer was wiped clean out the mods, but I still have the legs, arm rocket mod that goes with it. Another legendary video by one of the GOATS of cyberpunk build channels.

[@macknight4469]

The writing on this is absolutely incredible ❤

[@koolkiwidude3820]

I’ve always called it the Net-running Ninja, when using a cyberdeck. Build turns you into a straight Jedi…or Sith if that’s what you prefer. It’s not the most fun build to me but is indeed the most broken

[@Dalfang]

Thanks for sharing! Loving the idea of a Jedi build with modded lightsabers and quickhacking. Might just have to give that a try myself in the future!

[@The_Fearshredder4444]

Amazing. Great work!

Your videos are so good I play builds I have no intrest in before watching. Thanks again for the great content.

[@dragonray9450]

Wow one of the best build videos i've ever seen!

[@BelphegorTheSloth]

How does this man only have 5.5k subs? That’s wild this is my first video of yours I’m seeing but you already got my sub. Awesome video man

[@HumanKatamari]

The quality of this video is top notch, subbed straight away! More please : )

[@AzraelTekkenSarran]

That is some impressive high quality build video !

[@KevinMcClanahan]

This was a great video!

[@Lklimas]

I only started playing cyberpunk a few days ago and I’ve been doing a silenced pistol/throwing weapon build but when I finish my first playthrough I’ll definitely try this Thanks

[@equaltoreality8028]

As Fang requires a certain choice in Phantom Liberty or hacks, what would be a good alternative if you go down that line? If you don't make that choice or want to hack the game.

[@Dalfang]

The perks and cyberware in this build should work with any throwing knives. CDPR designed most knives to have a high bleeding chance, which naturally synergizes with blade and throwing knife perks, increasing dismemberment and finisher chances. Simply use the best throwing knives you find during gameplay, and equipping three of them can make missing a bit more forgiving. :)

[@norsia1946]

wow, an AI voice used for good effect, love it. I don't think I've ever seen a build video so wrapped up into a story.

[@DarkTouch]

Mark Strong?

[@Lagrangeify]

Beautifully put together, lots of flavor. Reminds me of those Warhammer 40k lore videos I'm into. I'm playing a corpo ninja character right now with emphasis on intelligence, cool and reflexes, almost nothing in body, just enough in tech for the med enhancements, so pretty glassy and fragile. I'll sling a few control hacks then close in fast and get some bleeds going with the Nehan knife and then slice and dice with the Satori katana. Most of the time they're all dead before the hacks have worn off! I tend only to use optical camo as an "oh shit" button.

[@theDudeStandard]

Amazing video!

[@TsapkoAndrii]

This is amazing ❤

[@rickmaher44]

Interesting take on a build video. Personally I prefer a katana to the mantis blades so I can use the Arm Launcher for a decent ranged option. Especially nice for dealing with mechanical enemies and vehicles

[@mitchellmercurio676]

Great vid!!!

[@joshuasquance6293]

Wish console had mods for this reason

[@adamwalker4889]

[@anthonywashington32]

yooooooo this video is amazing!!!!!!

[@RG-xl7ql]

This is actually the build I’ve been trying to make, thanks! Btw, is there any tangible difference between the katana and mantis blades for this build?

[@bennpope]

Do you use mods? Cause i dont remember being able to have that outfit and sword on back?

[@hanspierrenoah7011]

Please make more of these videos

[@BowForGlory]

0:57 that npc was like NOPE

[@YourDepressoSir]

Lol my first proper build was something like this, but I did not go for stealth at all. Sandy, katana and knives are lots of fun. Then instead of Mantis blades I took the grenade launcher arm. Run in and dismantle first enemy, skull tap his friend with a knife, charge up grenade launcher for nearby group, then "oh shit" sandy when every one comes to zero you. Squishy as hell, especially in Dog Town where everyone does crazy damage, but it makes for some cream worthy moments. Run up on a guy and cut him to bits, then you turn around and bam, a guy with a revolver about to blow your skull apart, only for you to last nanosec deflect his bullet into his own brains. Or you finish cutting up like 3 guys and you're out of stam, then a guy with a shotgun comes out of nowhere so you clutch a knife throw for an insta kill.

[@thehighlander8322]

You can switch blood pump for bio monitor, you’ll recieve auto healing from your healt items. This no need for bloodpomp

[@Business101HQ]

[@pbalu6564]

How are u able to do stealth kills with a knife? I only have the option to grab the enemy and then do knockout or right off kill them with a neck snap...

[@AR-db1vp]

You need to install a gameplay mod to do that.

[@Dalfang]

Yeah, as someone pointed out it's from a mod [www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/9360]. It's pretty cool 😆it lets you play like Assassin's Creed!

[@arthuralford]

@@Dalfang Just be careful where someone is standing when you kill them. I've done stealth kills with a knife and had the victim's body fall into a wall or under a car, and couldn't take their loot. It's a glitch in the mod

Wish we had a way on console to stealth kill with the mantis blades. The stealth kill from above is cool just wish they added to it

[@MrJohnnybe123]

That’s sick

[@Xsnipeassassin]

Would this build work without the extra levels from phantom liberty? Just base game level 50 with other skill points from side quests and skill trees?

[@RichQ33]

Awesome build and backstory

[@juanvaccalluzzo2749]

First of all, great video! I like the narrative style over simply "this is why it's good". I'm having a weird interaction, possibly bug? Trying out the build in a modded game, but only texture packs, and tactical cammo seems to do....nothing. Running all the cyberware in the guide and everything spots me regardless of the situation. Playing on Hard difficulty.

[@Ecniv8891]

how do you get the green interface with the new look to it? its perfect. btw best cyberpunk build videos., really immersive. I have a bilbo baggins build I made as well as a ciri build in my documents that i wrote. Good to see someone else do this too!

Heavily modded clothing, vehicle, game features including modded in extra clothing slots. You'll never be able to replicate this build visually but 100% doable if you follow everything else.

[@Dalfang]

At around 07:33 in the armor section, you'll find a list of all the clothing pieces I used. However, most of them are from 3rd party mods and not available on consoles. Sorry! 😅
