Where To Get Legendary Mantis Blades Cyberpunk

So, you're itching to slice and dice your way through Night City with some fancy Mantis Blades, huh? Everyone wants to be a cyborg ninja, and let’s be honest, who can blame them? But where do you actually snag those arm-mounted beauties?

Ripperdocs: Your Cyberware Santa Clauses

Forget chimney-diving Santas. In Night City, you go to Ripperdocs. Think of them as your friendly neighborhood body modification experts. They’re like tattoo artists, but instead of ink, they’re wielding chrome and bio-enhancements.

These aren't just some back-alley butchers. Most Ripperdocs are skilled surgeons with a knack for making you a walking weapon. Just try not to think too hard about what "warranty void if removed" means in this context.

The Importance of Location, Location, Location!

Not all Ripperdocs are created equal! Finding the *best* Mantis Blades requires a little bit of map-hopping. Some specialize in certain upgrades, or might have limited stock at any given time. Shop around.

Specifically, early in the game, check out the Ripperdoc in Watson near your starting apartment. He will be able to sell you a Mantis Blades mod. As you level up, you'll find the better ones at different locations.

Street Cred: The Currency of Cool

Here's the kicker: you can't just waltz in with a wad of eddies (Night City's currency) and demand the sharpest blades. You also need Street Cred. It's like reputation points for being a badass.

Think of it as a VIP pass to cybernetic enhancements. Do more gigs, help people out (or, you know, "help"), and watch that Street Cred climb. The higher it is, the more the Ripperdoc will trust you. And the better gear they will sell!

Looting and Plunder: Becoming a Cyber-Pirate

Sometimes, you can just *find* Mantis Blades out in the world. Technically you are looting, but hey, finders keepers, right? Plus, some of the enemies might carry the Mantis Blades themselves.

This is a less reliable method than visiting a Ripperdoc, but way more fun and a great way to save money. Just be careful out there, some of those containers might be guarded by some very unfriendly people.

Keep an eye out for suspicious crates or containers in gang territory. You never know, today might be your lucky day, and you will find those shiny Mantis Blades just lying there, waiting to be used.

A Word of Caution (and a Little Humor)

Remember, hacking up everyone you meet isn't the answer (usually). There are consequences, like, you know, the NCPD deciding you're not so cool after all. You can get the Mantis Blades, but just don't be a total jerk.

Imagine trying to explain to your grandma what you do for a living with Mantis Blades. Good luck with that. Let's just say, don't bring them to Thanksgiving dinner.

So, go forth, get those Mantis Blades, and become the chrome-plated legend you were always meant to be. Just try not to accidentally slice your couch while practicing your moves. Happy hunting!
