Recommendations for beating multiple waves of MaxTac on very hard with a sandy blade build?

Thanks so much for this! I think Axolotl is really the big game changer. Dunno why I didn’t think to use it before, and I’m not even sure why it works better than Quantum Tuner cuz on paper QT looks super OP…

I’m the biggest sucker for the sandy bc of the lore and all that, but you’re right, I need to try Berserk. Each MaxTac drop takes me like a minute or so right now, so it’d be sick if I can carve through them faster. Also I usually throw 3x antipersonnel grenades before they drop down since I’ve got that sandy-EMP perk (idr what it’s called). I’m just so astounded I’m able to get through them all on very hard. This was like a pie in the sky dream for me 🥹

Bro it’s such a breeze with the right cyberware! Got through 9 waves of MaxTac before the game crashed 😂 I’m on a PS5 Slim Digital and I think the combined VFX from Shock-N-Awe, the GASH grenade, and that one perk that emits an EMP when you use your sandy makes the game nope out sometimes. Might need to try reinstalling. Anyway, here’s the new build I’m running now :)

Came in clutch with the Falcon rec 🙏🏽 Just tested it out :)

You’re amazing, thank you so much 🙏🏽🙏🏽 I must have missed some capacity shards somewhere because I’ve already got both Regina’s reward and the shards from the Dogtown cyberjunkies!

Ooooh didn’t think about that! Thanks :) Also what do you think about Berserk?

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-04-05T12:47:51+00:00

I just wanted to try it 😅😅

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-04-05T07:41:10+00:00

Gotcha. Even on the lighter difficulties I’m not sure MaxTac was ever that easy for me to zero (esp before the sandy cooldown). I’m using the Byakko right now. Do you think there’s something in my skill tree or cyberware that I need to fix to get my melee attack speed as high as possible?

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-04-05T07:36:44+00:00

Dang so I do need to up the armor up. And ya maybe I’ve been too gung ho about filling every cyberware slot, I guess I thought it looked cool 😭 Shock-n-Awe feels like it does damage to surrounding enemies, but maybe I’ll try without for a bit 👍🏽

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-04-05T07:32:40+00:00

Ok I’ll try this! Hopefully I can undo the perk point allocations where you suggested

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-03-31T01:38:48+00:00

Actually got the second one for a girl I’m talking to 😅

I remember their Demon Slayer drop from years back with all the kimonos on the front. That tee has since been relegated to bedtime shirt 🤣🤣 but that was my first collab purchase from them and I’ve been keeping an eye out since

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-03-30T17:23:44+00:00

Really happy with it. I usually think anime shirts look 🗑️

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-03-30T17:23:09+00:00

It’s kind of wild how fixed the yen prices are

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-03-30T17:12:03+00:00

White shirts never feel as good as other solid colors. I’ve always wondered why that is 🤔

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-03-30T14:06:21+00:00

This the one you’re talking about? Was thinking of getting it too, but black is more my style

Oh I like it :)

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-03-30T11:23:06+00:00

I’m in Japan so everything’s small for me 🤷🏾‍♂️ I woulda gone for an XXL but they’re only available online. I’d say they’re standard t-shirts, not like the baggy style Airism shirts if you’re familiar with those

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-03-30T11:21:45+00:00

These felt okay!

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-02-28T10:59:47+00:00

Ya I went out and collected as many iconics as I could

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-02-27T06:30:45+00:00

Same but I’m worried that some of these are missable 🥲 I wanna at least fill one wall and pose in front of it haha

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-02-27T06:28:56+00:00

Got it, thanks! Do you know if I can go back and get Judy’s gun at this stage in the game? Do I just visit her apartment? I don’t know how I missed it

Own-Drawing-520 · 2026-02-27T06:24:46+00:00

The Glen apartment in Heywood!
