Edgerunner Lucy build Cyberware requirements

Here are the core Cyberware requirements for Lucy’s build in Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty 2.0:

• NetWatch Netdriver Mk. 5
• Memory Boost
• Bioconductor (Upgrade to COX-2 Cybersomatic Optimizer which is an Iconic Cyberware)
• RAM Reallocator (Iconic Cyberware)
• Chrome Compressor (iconic Cyberware)
• Kiroshi Optics
• Heal-on-Kill
• Camillo RAM Manager

The Bioconductor will be one of the most important Cyberware to get early in Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty 2.0. This is because the Frontal Cortex implant will let your quickhacks finally start to deal critical hits. It also comes with a 25% Crit Chance. However, once you are high level enough upgrade to COX-2 Cybersomatic Optimizer, it will all your combat quickhacks to then have 100% crit chance.

To complete the Lucy build, you will need the Thermal Monowire, which is one of her signature weapons. You will find the arms enhancement at most Ripperdocs, even at Viktor’s.
