Mantis Blades can be obtained for free. This is one of the most deadly implants в Cyberpunk 2077. However, not all players know that weapons have several improvement options. For example, you can:
- establish rotor, which increases attack speed;
- connect blades to power supplyto cause a short circuit in the network of robots;
- well, or supplement the legendary modification with damage from thermal burn.
We will talk about where to find these improvements, as well as how to install them, below.
New rotor for increased attack speed
Many Cyberpunk fans had no doubt that the new version of the game would feature legendary weapons. "Mantis Blades", because it was presented in the first teaser. However, despite the fact that the implant is strong enough, it has a small disadvantage - low attack speed. It will help to correct this nuance improvement in the form of a rotor, which can be purchased for a relatively small amount from a reaper or even received for free.
After purchasing the modification, you need to go to ranch "Coronado" and visit a reaper living in the local slums. You can buy a new rotor for the legendary weapon from him, which significantly increases the attack speed. The pleasure will cost everything 1750 Eurodollars.
So what does the new rotor do? Firstly, increases attack speed in melee combat by 35%. Secondly, it adds chance to stun the enemy. Both upgrades are perfectly combined with each other, so the strength of V with the modified Mantis Blades will increase many times over. So it makes sense to think about leveling legendary weapons as early as possible in the game.
You can buy a modification of the highest level from the reaper in the market "Cherry Blossom", however, such a pleasure will cost 4 times more - 7000 Eurodollars. On the one hand, the improvement seems very expensive, but it adds only 10% to the weapon. On the other hand, do not forget that the higher the attack speed, the more often the stun will fall. And overestimate the importance of stuns against bosses (which you can defeat with the help of a guide) and especially strong enemies is almost impossible.
How to add electrical damage to Mantis Blades
In addition to increasing attack speed, the legendary weapon "Mantis Blades" can also be upgraded by adding additional damage, for example, from electricity. This modification will be especially effective against robots and dronesbecause she can cause a short circuit in their network. Against ordinary enemies, electric Mantis Blades will also prove to be very useful, because they will deal increased damage.
Once the modification is purchased, it will need establish at the same dock. After that, you can go in search of enemy robots. However be aware that if you decide to add a thermal or chemical modification to the Mantis Blades, one of them will be replaced. On the one hand, this is correct, because otherwise the legendary weapon would be too unbalanced. On the other hand, it’s a little disappointing, because you can get such a weapon with all the improvements towards the end of the game.
Thermal modification
Another upgrade for the Mantis Blades adds a legendary weapon thermal damage. Unlike the previous one, this upgrade can't be purchased from the reaper. However, having mastered crafting specialization and purchasing the appropriate prescription from Cassius Ryder in NorthsideCan be create a modifier yourself.
If V has not mastered crafting, then, unfortunately, it will not work to improve weapons with thermal blades.
To create a modifier, you need to acquire 15 rare ingredients, which can be found during the passage of the main story and secondary missions. You will also need 5th level of technical ability and unlocking a perk to access legendary craft. Luckily, Cyberpunk 2077 encourages gamers to develop the Artisan profession no matter what class they choose to play as.
There is a small chance to find a modification for the implant almost at the beginning of the game, while completing the "Pickup" mission. To do this, you will have to load many times using the method with spawn lootdescribed a little earlier. However, if you have already completed this story quest, then the only way to get the upgrade is craft it yourself.
"Mantis Blades" are considered to be best legendary melee weapon in Cyberpunk 2077. With a full upgrade of the implant, V will be able to deal with any enemies in almost seconds. However, do not forget that upgrading weapons costs a huge amount of money. So, even if you manage to find the right merchants at the very beginning, this does not mean that you will smash everyone right and left in the very first act.
“has a small drawback - a low attack speed” ... I didn’t read further, because this line is already the worst nonsense.
Why nonsense? The Monostring has a higher attack speed. There is a knife and a katana that are not inferior in speed, and some also have it higher. Mantis blades nerfed ahead of game release
Hello!
And why do the legendary praying mantis hands have three modification slots?
In the first slot of the modifier places the selected variant of the blades (for physical, thermal, chemical or electrical damage)
The selected rotor variant is placed in the second cell of the modifier.
And what can be in the third cell of the modifier?
Hello! So far, I also have only rare and epic modifications in the improvements, I have not seen the legendary ones yet. Also interesting. Maybe they will bring it with patches later
sensory amplifiers are inserted into the 3rd stack, they are now rare (blue):
- on crit damage 30%
- 10% chance to crit,
- 15% health,
- 5% armor.
The translation is not correct "attack speed by a staggering 35%."
There is no shock.
Google translate is wrong.
"attack speed with a staggering 35%" would probably mean stun
