Nice, this is exactly one of my builds I am running except all my quickhacks are control / covert. My build has a couple differences, I prefer Her Majesty and on top of Overwatch I also have a tech sniper on me that synergizes well with Ping when combat is inevitable since I can shoot through walls. Most builds doing pistols focus on Sandevistan but changing that for hacking increases the APM (actions per minute) of the build and adds another layer of gameplay on top the shooting. I nicknamed the build "Agent", as in, a Special Agent who excells in infiltration, reconnaissance and completing missions efficiently.
I use pistols more for combat but go for neturnning as well, with a focus on the control quickhacks. Destroy everyone's weapons and cripple their movement, then blast them all away with bolt shot chaining lightning in focus mode. Love the way you can mix and match the skill trees in this game.
You should try using the Raiju alongside Her Majesty and Overwatch. The Raiju will let you pierce through cover without using charged shots and it has enough shots that you can pick off quite a few enemies before needing to reload. If you really want to use a tech sniper Breakthrough is your best choice since like the Raiju it pierces cover un-charged.
@@allanmarques6812 Sandevistan has a much harder time doing stealth missions compared to cyberdeck, especially in the early game. You absolutely need Optical Camo and preferably Vanishing Act perk so you can toggle the camo off and on. You can't even get Optical Camo until level 20 IIRC.
@@styrfry I agree, I love my Sandy but the Deck is way easier for more than a few GIGs, while NCPD combat zones it doesn't help as much. In the rando Combat chases I spam reboot Optics and use an IGLA shotgun to kill them up close, works on Mantisblade Sandy Maelstrom attackers just great. FeenEx was tested and instantly recharges 4 ram so I can hit 2 guys with RebootOptics over and over and never run out of ram. Get it at lvl 10. Also until lvl 30 I use a Deck as the only Sandy worth having is the Militec Falcon IMHO. They nerfed the Apogee from 8 sec to 6 sec and the 20% extention of time per kill to 10%, so its a waste.
Holy moly, what a build! This is exactly how i want to play. I have a question... i just started to play this game and i am at lvl 15 now. Where should i put my first attributes and perks in first? Anywho, love this build! XD
Think I settled on 20 tech for cyberware, cool for pistols and stealth, int for hack and some smart weapons stuff for some diversity, 15 reflexes for air dash and some blade stuff when I feel like slashing dudes, and rest in body with. Maybe with gorilla arm for the body points. Unless I spec monowire.
Could you explain why you use Sonic shock + reboot optics + short circuit + synapse burnout. I only use Sonic shock + Synapse Burnout that does the job. Nice gameplay tho 👌🏻
I think the best gun for stealth kills is the Tamayura++ with top tier suppresor and top tier Pax. It has the highest dmg if i am not mistaken. I am not sure on this one, but it could be able to one-shot "skull" enemies outside of the combat, it the shot is critical. Feel free to correct me.
@@suntzuishere Ok, you may be right. The Pride may be better. I am trying to stay away from endings for know so i do not have the Pride in the inventory yet (after the 2.0)🙂
I've been trying a Sandi build on my new run and man idk I feel so bored with it tbh, and not being able to just turn off traps and open doors has been a pain. Im think of switching respecting to 20 Cool, Reflex and either Tech or Intel
Nice build, you've already mentioned it here in the comments, but why not just use Rogue's pistol instead? I'm able to one tap the enemies with skulls in stealth using it.
Ever tried using death and taxes? It's a iconic nue varient like Jakie's pistol except it double taps and for me at least has one of the coolest looks of all pistols.
Cool, I like it. I'm going with a slower, stealth build. I like silenced pistols and silenced snipers. I don't like the tech weapons mode, but tech implants are okay. Any weapon or skill tree tips?
if you going stealth, cool attribute is your best friend. Killer instinct and almost all detection perk is a must have. And always pay attention at headshot damage modifier in each weapon to calculate which weapon offering better dps.
I just realised that if I shoot a camera, I will be detected immediately, which is a shame because I invest everything on Sandevatian reflexes, now it's too late
@@Sima-hg5nl well that's strange, just shoved a muzzle on a random power pistol and it worked. Are you sure the muzzle you used isn't for ricochet boost?
@@froilanflorentino1252 I'm sure with you. I use silencer to shoot. Usually the enemy will just turn on their alert mode and start searching. Well in my case, yes, but immediately after about 2 sec I will be detected no matter how I tried to hide
I've had only make body builds in the past, a shotgun one, and a reflex one with SMGs, how this build do when you have to fight heat on?, like a boss? Aren't you very squishy?
The netrun combo dps is crazy, you didn't see it here because i turn off the damage calculation interface. Overclock + biomonitor + 4 combat quickhack queue can net like above 50k damage, and this build even doesnt invest at body at all, if you put atleast 4 to body and pick all the perks available to it, the combo can last even longer. We are talking like 100k damage. But then again, i bet the boss will already be dead. The rest is just playing with your optic camo and keep your distance
how do you manage against bosses like Oda or Adam Smasher ? I'm level 36 and fighting Oda is a pain in the ass. I'm trying this build out but it only seems good against regular enemies, fighting Oda is making me reconsider changing it
Use the netrun combo abilities and blast him with revolver or sniper rifles. Adam smasher is a bit harder tho since he will summon troops, but as long as you can keep your distance and use the netrun properly he will eventually go down. The biggest source of damage in this build actually the netrun skills not the silence method. As you can see in this video i've not yet reached max level and max perks, so if you do have more points, you could get the netrun skills that could heal you everytime you neutralize an opponent, which is extremely helpful against adam smasher troops to make your HP restored quickly and prolonging overclock with synapse. But yes, to obliterate bosses with ease, sandevistan build is without a doubt more advantageous than a stealth netrun.
@@suntzuishere thank you for your answer ! It's my first playthrough with a net runner build, I'm still figuring out the combos. I was using contagion and overheat a lot but I guess I'm going to copy your setup Btw why La Chorona? I upgraded it to Legendary+ and it's really good despite the low rate of fire when things turn south if I'm detected. Aren't there better alternatives later in the game ? 100% headshot multiplier doesn't seem that good later
@@FABIOZITO11 You could try using Pride pistol from the ending or Her Majesty (Phantom Liberty main mission reward). I've never use both of them so i couldn't really say if it's better than la chongada, but her majesty seems like 100% better pistol.
What mission is the first gameplay from? I found that corner of the map in dogtown but that backdoor was shut closed. There was an email about there being a stock of weapons or loot by the elevator but I never saw any elevators around there either, thought maybe it was behind the locked door.
hmm how come when i use optimal camo, and silencer pistol when i fight a group of enemy's, or sword.. i still get notice after first kill, they always spot me right away... im like lvl 30 ish is my game bug? while im still in camo
Go with cool and intelligence to 15, and then start to play around tech, after that you could invest to reflex. As for the perks you can see my build in this video
@@suntzuishere wow great! i think I will not use hacking things; it's too complicated for me. Any suggestions for operating systems except Sandevistan? Currently, I am using Berserk.
Cool but why put very hard in the title? You're one hitting all the mobs without dmg numbers or getting hit, so the difficulty would be irrelevant even if you were on very hard, then the point would be to show off your build, but the numbers are off so we cant see how good it is. Lol.
Forgot to change it when recording the build, I'm testing to add knife for the build. But i don't think there's a significant option at that time for me to use, or maybe i don't know it yet
