Discover the ultimate Stealth Assassin experience in Cyberpunk 2077 with our Contract Killer Build. This guide will walk you through the weapons, skills, and tactics needed to stealthily eliminate your enemies using silenced pistols or revolvers. Embrace the shadows and become a Contract Killer in Night City.
How the Contract Killer Build Works
Start by activating the Big Sleep Daemon to neutralize all cameras, preventing detection as you sneak around. Then, employ the Ping Quickhack to locate enemies, letting you choose your targets with precision. Eliminate your targets one by one as you navigate silently, ideally killing each enemy with a single shot from your pistol or revolver.
Contract Killer Attributes
To make the most of this build, you will need to develop Cool, Reflexes, and Intelligence. Cool grants increased stealth damage and unlocks Stealth and Cold Blood Perks. Reflexes provide additional Critical Chance and better Handguns Perks for greater damage, while Intelligence enhances your Quickhacks and access to better Daemons. Your attribute distribution should be:
- Cool: 20
- Reflexes: 20
- Intelligence: 15
Distribute your Attribute Points evenly between Cool and Reflexes, with Intelligence slightly behind. This mix allows for powerful pistol shots and versatile Quickhacks usage.
Contract Killer Perks
Choose Perks related to Cool, Reflexes and Intelligence. These will enhance your stealth capabilities, handguns effectiveness, and Quickhack performance. Some notable Perks in each category include:
- Stealth Perks: Silent and Deadly, Crouching Tiger, Strike from the Shadows, Sniper, Ghost
- Cold Blood Perks: Cold Blood, Frozen Precision, Merciless, Critical Condition
- Handguns Perks: High Noon, Rio Bravo, Desperado, Long Shot Drop Pop, A Fistful of Eurodollars, Wild West, Westworld, Brainpower, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
- Breach Protocol & Quickhacks Perks: Big Sleep, Biosynergy, Forget-Me-Not, Signal Support
Contract Killer Equipment
When choosing the best weaponry, opt for a pistol or revolver with high per shot damage and a headshot multiplier of 3 or more. Silencers are crucial to maintain stealth and boost your critical chance. For armor, prioritize bonuses to Crit Chance or Crit Damage performance over armor protection. Also, consider special armor mods for additional effects.
