Cyberpunk 2077: Best Sandevistan Weapons

The Sandevistan is easily one of the most overpowered pieces of cyberware that eurodollars can buy in Cyberpunk 2077, and it’s something that Adam Smasher uses to conquer the competition. Now, V can wear their own version of the Sandevistan, in which they can slow time and still enjoy rapid reflexes to unleash deadly attacks before their enemies can even blink.

Sandevistans are so much fun in Cyberpunk 2077, which is why it’s going to help players to know what the best weapons to use will be while in this slowed reality, ensuring that every bullet does its job, and every melee hit works its magic.

Archangel

Fully Automatic Revolver with Great Headshot Damage

• How to get Archangel: Complete Kerry Eurodyne’s mission, A Like Supreme.

Revolvers are one of the coolest weapon types in Cyberpunk 2077, and although guns aren’t the greatest weapon types to use with a Sandevistan due to how the bullets don’t travel that far unless they’re practically already set to go off in someone’s face, the Archangel does help somewhat with that due to its full auto spread and ability to knock enemies to the ground with successful hits.

This means that those who want to represent Kerry Eurodyne can do so with Archangel, a weapon that has exceptional headshot damage, along with fast-firing rounds so that players can line up bullets across multiple enemies during a Sandevistan burst, so that when time returns to normal, enemies are going to be pulverized by lead.

Agaou

A Thrown Axe to Emit Painful Shockwaves

• How to Get Agagou: Obtained from Ayo Zarin in the Increased Criminal Activity: Voodoo Boys, found in Luxor High Wellness Spa, Dogtown.

With a fast swing, the Agagou axe makes for a slashingly good time against opponents thanks to how V can swing it wildly into enemies that are too slow to respond to the Sandevistan’s slowing time. The Agaou axe also benefits from its unique perk, in which throwing it at an enemy’s crit spot will grant a surge of shockwaves that can damage multiple enemies at once.

With that in mind, players can throw Agaou at an enemy from close range, to both grab the shockwave effect and return the axe, only to do it again during a period of time-slow. Melee weapons are great for the Sandevistan, and Agaou’s electric capabilities prove just that.

Comrade’s Hammer

Fire Explosive Rounds That Reload with Quick Melee Attacks

• How to get Comrade’s Hammer: Obtained from a Crafting Spec looted from Darius Miles in the Suspected Organized Crime Activity found in Hargreaves Street, Arroyo, Santo Domingo.

Comrade’s Hammer is perhaps the hardest-hitting revolver that players can get in Cyberpunk 2077, making it a must-have not only for the cool factor, for the immense damage it is capable of when it comes to halting time with a Sandevistan. While bullets don’t travel far, if at all, during Sandevistan’s time stoppage, Comrade’s Hammer hits hard enough to negate it somewhat for those at close range.

This means that players can fire off an explosive shot directly into an enemy, then use the Quick Melee Attack on another enemy to get the bullet back, just to fire it off again and repeat until time returns to normal and players are standing in a pool of exploded limbs.

Butcher’s Cleaver

Make Enemies Bleed to Cut Them Into Rapid Pieces

• How to Get Butcher’s Cleaver: Picked up from Rolland’s Butcher Shop where Placide is butchering a chicken in M’ap Tann Pelen.

The Butcher’s Knife is a rare weapon indeed, and a constant reminder of the Voodoo Boys, but that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be wielded against them. With the Butcher’s Cleaver, players will have access to an extremely fun weapon that synergizes so well with its iconic modifier to allow faster attacks and less stamina consumed, but only if enemies are bleeding.

The Butcher’s Cleaver has a 20% chance to make someone bleed with every attack, and if that enemy is bleeding during the Sandevistan’s activation, players can swing even faster than before, ensuring a thousand cuts into each enemy before they realize that they’re missing limbs.

4

Guts

A Heavy Yet Pulverising Shotgun

• How to get Guts: Found within the Memorial Park in City Center, within the bushes near to praying monks.

Guts was once Rebecca’s shotgun, a small woman with a true style for brutality when she was part of the Edgerunners crew. While Rebecca might not be with Night City anymore, her weapon certainly is, and V needs to wield this at least once to see true power in the palms of their hands, considering this heavy shotgun will unleash an absolutely brutal burst of pellets to rip heads clean off of necks.

While Guts is a slowed weapon due to its weight, the activation of the Sandevistan means that players can quickly get to opponents, line up a close-range headshot to enjoy the damage multiplier and extreme damage potential, just to chain to the next one until heads pop and blow.

3

Byakko

Leap Towards Enemies for Rapid Attacks

• How to Get Byakko: Complete all 8 of Wakako Okada’s Gigs

Byakko is easily one of the best katanas in Cyberpunk 2077, and with its iconic modifiers, players are in for a great time ahead as they activate the Sandevistan and prepare to slash the limbs off of their enemies with ease. Byakko benefits from fast flurries of attacks, which is perfect when one considers the attack speed, damage, and the ability to leap toward enemies at full force.

With enemies unable to move much during the Sandevistan’s activation, using Byakko means players can rapidly chain attacks by leaping towards their victims, slashing them for a bit, gaining a temporary surge of rapid combo attacks for the next enemy, and creating a domino effect of bloody death.

2

Scalpel

Increase Bleeding and Crit Chance During Sandevistan Activations

• How to Get Scalpel: Complete the Big in Japan Side Job

Scalpel is a beautiful katana, but it’s also one that’s practically built for the Sandevistan. This weapon is a fast striking katana, and a hard-hitting one, but it’s one that practically needs the Sandevistan to truly unlock its potential. With the Scalpel, players are going to enjoy an increase to Crit Chance by a whopping 50%, which doesn’t even include the already 30% Shock Chance to make sure that the elements are truly against each of V’s victims.

Each hit with the Scalpel will also apply Bleeding, ensuring that enemies have no chance of escaping alive once V activates the Sandevistan, providing a weapon and a cyberware combo that even Adam Smasher might get a tad nervous about.

Sovereign

A Double-Barrel Shotgun Created for Point-Blank Shots

• How to get Sovereign: Crafting Spec from Shinobu Amai in Suspected Organized Crime Activity: Modern Labor Market, found in Willow Street, Japantown, Westbrook.

If players like to get a tad sadistic with their kills, then Sovereign might be just what they are looking for. With this double-barrelled shotgun at the ready, players can approach their enemies and fire off a point-blank shot that will always be a guaranteed critical hit. Even better, is that a torso shot provides an increase to movement speed and reload speed, making the Sandevistan work even better than before.

Sure, melee weapons might be the smarter choice for the Sandevistan, but why not have some gory fun with Sovereign and blow out torsos and heads, just to rapidly rush to the next target and do it all over again?
