All Smart And Unique Weapons In Cyberpunk 2077 Ranked

Cyberpunk 2077 patch 1.2

Cyberpunk 2077 is a game full of distractions, actions, and commotions. This overload is already evident when taking a stroll down the street. When in combat, the muzzle flashes, grenades, and bullets from every direction all amplify the overwhelming environment. So how do you line up a good shot when all this is going down?

The easy answer is that you don’t. Trying to get off the perfect headshot during a hailstorm of deadly projectiles will mean taking more damage than the damage you cause. This is why smart weapons are around, to help mitigate standing around and trying to aim perfectly. Some of the guns leave a lot to be desired, but when you find the best smart weapon in Cyberpunk 2077 that feels made just for you. Here we will rank the best smart and unique weapons in cyberpunk 2077.

Rankings Of Smart And Unique Weapons In Cyberpunk 2077

#1. Divided We Stand

Divided We Stand

With a chance to poison and the ability to target up to five enemies at a time, how could this smart assault rifle not be amazing? This is not to knock the poison, it’s great against organic targets and due to the number of bullets fired, odds are in your favor of the target getting this status effect on them.

But comparing the stats of this gun to those of every other iconic smart weapon in Cyberpunk 2077, it has the lowest overall DPS by far. If you really like the automatic nature of the weapon, do yourself a favor and grab one of the two submachine guns on this list, you’ll notice an instant upgrade. The gold gun with the NUSA flag on the grip is iconic enough, but it’s all sizzle and not enough steak.

Where to find the “Divided We Stand”?

The proper way to get the Divided we stand is to win the Stadium Love shooting event. But players who don’t mind getting their hands dirty can go ahead and wipe out the sixers and take the gun by force.

#2. Yinglong

What is the biggest drawback of using a submachine gun? The inaccurate kickback. The smart modifier removes this drawback and so you’re left with a gun really ready to do some serious damage in combat. The shock chance seems low, but the unrivaled quantity of bullets essentially guarantees that it happens after emptying every single clip.

The EMP and electrical damage are superior against robots, so while other guns higher up on this list might have more versatility, keep this in your toolbox whenever inorganic machines threaten you. You’ll knock out their systems and push them down like a sack of hammers.

How to get the “Yinglong”?

To get the Yinglong:

  • Get the Edgerunner Artisan Perk.
  • Kill the leader during the Suspected Crime Activity in Wellsprings.
  • Take the schematic off of his body.
  • Craft it!

#3. Prototype Shingen: Mark V

Shingen: Smart and unique weapons in cyberpunk 2077

The other iconic submachine gun is specialized at killing robotics, this one is specialized at killing everything. Able to target three enemies at once with explosive damage, the DPS increase is immediately noticeable.

The rapid-fire nature of this gun will give you the feeling of shooting off a bunch of small grenades. And if you time out how quickly the enemies go down, that visual image is not all that far from the truth. Explosive rounds really knock enemies around, so using this against a single target means you don’t even have to take cover because they won’t be able to function.

How to get the awesome weapon Prototype Shingen: Mark V?

The enemies did not want V to get hold of this smart weapon. They’ve locked the Prototype Shingen: Mark V in a shipping container. It can be accessed during the Gimme Danger mission with code 667.

#4. Genjiroh

No other gun on the list has as many modifications as the Genjiroh. The electrical damage and shock chance both keep organic enemies locked down and it dispatches any robotic enemies in the opening wave of fire.

The gun would be ranked higher, but the modifications actually provide a couple of sneaky penalties. Firing four bullets at once dries out the gun fast, even with an increased magazine size. And targeting six enemies at once is actually a bit too many, it spreads out the damage too evenly instead of killing one after another. Still, it’s a solid choice for almost any build.

How To Get The Genjiroh?

This is one of the most easily missed smart weapons in Cyberpunk 2077. During the Play it Safe mission, there will be a door that requires a technical skill of eleven to open. However, those without that skill shouldn’t give up on this iconic smart gun, simply use the keypad and type in 2906.

#5. Ba Xing Chong

Ba Xing Chong: smart and unque weapons in cyberpunk 2077

Shotguns have been underwhelming in Cyberpunk 2077, but the smart ability takes away their biggest drawback. Every single bullet will find its mark, thus expanding both the range and damage of this weapon. It’s nice to use a shotgun that feels like it actually has enough kick.

Additionally, the iconic nature of this weapon has a chance to knock down enemies hit by it and because it fires so many projectiles at once, the odds of the knockdown are really pretty good. This is one of the most awesome smart and unique weapons in cyberpunk 2077.

How to get the Ba Xing Chong?

To get the Ba Xing Chong:

  • Acquire the key to Adam Smasher’s vault from Greyson.
  • Get the Edgerunner Artisan Perk.
  • Raid the vault in Ebunike.
  • Take the schematic.
  • Craft it!

#6. Skippy

Skippy: Most Smart and unique weapons in cyberpunk

With almost double the top DPS of the runner-up, Skippy deals absolute damage. When you first pick it up, it will ask you if you want to deal headshots or body shots. Choose body shots and after 50 frags it will try to flip the setting. Answer, “I don’t know,” and then it will permanently switch to automatic headshot mode.

Strangely, there exists a quest to turn it back into its original owner for a couple of eddies. Do NOT do it or else you’ll have given away the best iconic weapon in all of Cyberpunk 2077. Believe this, you don’t need the money that bad, you’ll more than earn it back by reducing your time taken on side jobs by 50% or more by kicking in the door, then spraying and praying with Skippy.

How To Get The Skippy?

To get the skippy you don’t have to do anything extra-ordinary the weapon is right out in the open, on the floor when completing the Machine Gun side job.
