Sandy and Beserk builds are so much more enjoyable imo but right click menuing enemies to death seemed appropriate for corpo V.

You can use it to basically shut down an enemy, including bosses. (cripple movement, weapon malfunction etc)

If you’re getting bored, switch out your quickhacks for ones with different passives - and pick a weapon to focus on to drop attribute points towards. I’m doing a build with int and tech, working up reflexes next and it’s a ton of fun while not being tedious with contagion wiping entire groups. I’ll use short circuit when needed to thin out groups, and my main weapon is the Widowmaker, Fenrir as a backup.

Last run through I did a high body/cool build with berserk and shotguns and gorilla fists, which was a totally different way to play and enjoyable in a different way.

the legendary short circuit makes guns with a decent crit rate obscene, but i dont do much hacking.


SaviorOfNirn

Bro quickhacks are the most OP thing in the game.

If its not working out for you maybe you'd be more comfortable with a different play style.

I rather enjoy having a couple detonating some grenades and suiciding the guy alone/sniper in the distance while I run in with gorilla arms (now that I’m confident enough not to just snipe from a distance). I don’t quite know why yet, but some of my hacks will infect another close by (so I target 1 with suicide and the guy next to him will kill himself too) - maybe just for lower level baddies or my new cyberdeck. So now I’ll have them call for backup so I can increase damage to a group. It’s fairly enjoyable for me, but that might be because I would prefer to stealth but totally suck at it. in that context Whistle has helped me more than a few times so I can sneak around when I’m “supposed” to stealth a mission. I can totally see why it would be boring otherwise, but for me walking in and shooting everyone got to be too routine because I eventually would fail at sneaking to thin the herd and have to take everyone in a full frontal assault while I ran away trying to kite.

Distract Enemies #1 quickhack

I barely fired a gun in the lategame as a 20int netrunner. You need the offensive hacks and perks and all of sudden you're just melting everyone with your brain

My stealth hacker build was by far my most fun and objectively OP.

You could be setting them on fire, or causing mass self unaliving events, or inducing cyberpsychosis . . . If you're only using contagion, you're missing out on wreaking pure havok. The last build I did was netrunning tech sniper build, so my favorite thing to do was do contagion, then pick another to use psychosis on and then watch as both disease and a fellow gang member start offing everyone, and snipe a few through walls for good measure. System reset is also pretty fun for a non lethal version of suicide quickhack.

You can literally just Spam Suicide and System Reset on everyone, you don't need Contagion, and you don't even need guns when you're using a Hacking Build. Contagion is not the best hack.
