Difficulty at 4:58 Stealth Takedown Smasher Update 2.1 :ruclips.net/video/Hqsv28rHNHI/видео.html Adam Smasher in patch 2.0: ruclips.net/video/GI-MoQ5gFi0/видео.html
its still possible to kill him using quick hacks, the counterhack bar can be reduced down if you attack him, it basically forces you to engage with him and not hide in a corner hacking him
It almost feels worth showing him Mercy, just because of how disgusting and weak he thinks mercy is, and it would probably piss him off more then anything else you could possibly do, because it's kind of telling him "I' sparing your life, because i'm stronger then you and you're not worth killing."
Maybe Morgan blackhand would since mercy is more of his style i dont think V tho as a character would since he knows how dangerous smasher is and alyways kills first V aint no Morgan blackhand in terms of morality
@@Nyghtking I mean Smasher literally kills lots of beloved characters I personally never spare him V stands for vengeance or vendetta there's literally a trophy called V for Vendetta 😂
He e is even harder on the “don’t fear the reaper” ending… you have to fight him completely alone and your max health slowly deteroriate because of the relic
@Trevbplayz it was ez enough for me to one shot smasher but it was pre phantom. Just used sande tossed a shit load of grenades in his face, about 3 melee combos into his back, 3 smart smg (legend with all element dmg) clips, and spammed wirst rockets until sande wore off. I jumped for a sec when the smoke cleared only for it to be the remains of his torso. For Becca.
@@THEPhantom2077 i die once in don't fear the reaper on normal and that because the server room door was bugged and the last enemy (which happened to be a heavy soldier) were stuck behind it so i walk up to him to try and melee and bastard just clip through the wall and 2 tap me
Fighting him with a max level reflex and cool build was truly badass. The fact he can move as quick a Max level V with Sandevistan made him truly a worthy boss fight. He actually keeps you on your toes.
I thought they would give him a self ice effect like in the anime. Seems like he just traces V even though he already knows where V is then if it completes he casts reboot optics. But can you still stun lock him with cripple movement?
He counterhacks. You have to physically attack him to stop it, and each uploaded hack jumps the progress bar on his counterhack. Going pure hack will presumably end badly for you.
@@keystrix3704 I had the same kind of build and had a bad time indeed, to the point I had to lower the difficulty for this fight because he was constantly 1 shotting me So maybe you'll be better than me (because I'm pretty bad in FPS) but for me it was a really hard fight
@@vayalond7203 I dunno. Oda was absolutely crushing me at level 40. Like, it was a struggle to get him down to 90% health as he, too, would one or two shot me. It took a lot of playing tag to get him down to 40%, where I then lucked out because he glitched and got stuck walking on air. I doubt things are gonna go better with Smasher.
how about going the middle way, and romance adam? :3 hes got cute eyes,you gotta admit,i bet hed give good head,just for the guys who like teeth tho i somehow feel like i need to convert to catholicism now...
@@brandonvortex995 Just do it yourself dip, either do stuff underleveled on Vh or go to the modding scene, not everything needs tob e done at the whim of cry shits.
I kinda wished they gave us some sort of execution animation. Like digging into Smashers' exposed brain and ripping it out by the brainstem and smashing it like a rotten apple under the boot.
Grab Rogue’s pistol and get the mission pop up “finish him” walk over, crouch down to look him in the eyes and blow smasher’s brains out. Stand up “fuckin gonk” *mission complete*
Every boss in this game DO have unique execution/takedown animations. They’re just hard to get. You have to lose the boss’s detection of you and sneak behind them. The RUclipsr “AbraHamSandwich” does challenge runs for Cyberpunk, and he discovered this in one of them. What’s even cooler is that every animation is different, based on the condition of the boss you’re fighting.
@@invert8505My Sandy+Mantis blade build was quite nice against him… if I used the mantis blades. I was running full reflex tree with full tech weapons tree and I ran out of fucking ammo 😭 Mind you I did this on DFTR so he one shot me no matter what, so I had to dance with death because my guns didn’t do shit to him.
I just love how in cyberpunk, it's not always about who has the best arsenal but the invisible battlefield of cyber attack. It's terrifying to think that even with the best implants, if you don't have any firewalls, anti-viruses, or jammer, someone could fry your brains or shut down your weapon systems.
This fight was great! I was playing on easy and he was still fun. I had to dodge, use my sandy, use my tech weapon Widowmaker to kill him and it took about 4 minutes to kill him.
David vs Smasher was a legendary showcase of animation but god damn, at this point I need an Akuma mod... I wanna show Smasher that V can move around with Murderous Intent,,, THE POWER OF HADO!!
The only thing it lacks is the intelligence... he could perfectly destroy the turrets at once, but he doesn't destroy them... What a shame, it could be better.
@@skell6134 the separation of hp visible stages was an addition in 2.0 now they just added more to it and actually made smasher visually and physically threatening
Loads more hit points, very difficult to get spacing and even the little bit of extra enemies mid fight made this fight waaaaay more entertaining. I remember slicing him to death before finishing his opening dialog in the past.
He killed me twice on my run of the game on the hardest difficulty. Max body, tech and cool and basically spent the fight switching between the explosive lmg, an explosive sniper and a big fuck you hammer. That 3rd try victory was very satisfying against this guy.
The sandy visual effect is super cool, but I feel like CDPR dropped the ball with having it only on Adam's sandy, and having it be visible when you're not under the effects of your own sandy/kerenzikov(and the slow down of scanning as well). The whole point of that rainbow effect was for Trigger to better convey when someone was using a sandevistan in the anime in a more stylish, artistic way, and it seems that CDPR completely missed that memo when they gave Adam the effect.
Detonate grenades halves his health immediately begining the fight. Would be cheating but his one arm phase has a rocket volley that flatlines V if it catches you standing so im calling it even. You can really run out of bullets during this fight in the Dont Fear The Reaper ending.
Honestly, with my sandy samurai build on Normal, Smasher still made me pause the game for a sec to actually comprehend what the cyberfuck was happening and then he killed me.... until Second Heart kicked in. Still he almost killed loads, was the most dashing to actually dodge an attack i did. Now im on a netrunner build on hard..., this is gonna be fun. Side note: Why does hard feel not hard. Cos usually theyre grueling in other games but for me, its like Fallout 4 Normal.
@@OraoraoraorraBody builds are on top so ofc you killed him first try ahaha. Did you use the Berserk that literally makes you invincible or did you run another?
Bruh i played on very hard and went in with the storyline without the side missions....big mistake, paper ass V i had got destroyed easily, took me 3 days to beat him But then i did the dlc and all the side missions,and got as maxed out as i could,and beating smasher was a joke
Update 2.0 made the game not just playable, but one of the best games ever made in the history of video games. Sadly I have to stick with version 1.61 because they won't update it for Xbox One.
Ok but in the TABLETOP smasher is even STRONGER and has two giant power armor things for his already metal body to wear. Where's tabletop accurate smasher
Tried this with runner build V, max health 340 something. Were it not for Yinglong I had in the inventory, I wouldn't have gotten through this on my fourth try. This fucker was seriously difficult with a paperthin V.
Ngl its still really REALLY easy and kinda underwhelming. He lacks aggression considering how overkill his tech is relative to yours, and he genuinely would've been much more difficult if he actually pushed you with a higher damage output. (max difficulty 20b 20r 20t shotgun build)
I never played this game but from what I see I feel even I would be able to 1 shot this guy. He doas a lot of random nothings. He Is no stronger than a "Strog" In Quake just more hp.
This makes it look so easy. I just finished my very first game of Cyberpunk and of course on very hard difficulty. I didnt upgrade my cybernetics or armor at all (I wanted to be purist) and my perks were mostly something that seemed useful or cool (like dash). I had done most of side missions but not too many gigs. It was fun when his rocket ability was instant death and he would kill me with two punches. Now those I could deal with by just dashing around and getting the occasional shotgun hit on him, but when the npcs spawn it is just rng. They hit me regardless of me dashing around. I lost count how many times I just died because of that phase. Eventually I got lucky when I got good grenade throws to knock them down and they didnt kill me in nanosecond when they got up. Most miserable experience of boss fight I ever had in my gaming career. When I am gonna replay this Im gonna be sure to read some build guide to stack the most op shit just for this fight.
No matter what update/DLC the best weapon are still h@cking and meele. Gun in this game don't do $hit. The bigger and scarier the guns, the weaker they are.

Adam Smasher in patch 2.0: ruclips.net/video/GI-MoQ5gFi0/видео.html
Honestly, I like the fact that he counterattacks your quickhacks more than him using Sandevistan.
its still possible to kill him using quick hacks, the counterhack bar can be reduced down if you attack him, it basically forces you to engage with him and not hide in a corner hacking him
This version fits the anime one a lot lol
Nah a giant hunk of metal moving like The Flash is still worse lol
My honest reaction to Smasher taunting us for being weak is first go kill a MaxTac Squad
@@D201-o4kBruh you literally just described Adam Smasher, sounds perfect to me.
Finally from Adam Sandler to Adam Smasher.
It would be funny if someone made a model that replaces smashers face with Adam Sandler's 😂

That’s the only ending I’ve done, besides the Panaam one (:
That’s the ending I went with and even though I was on normal ( everyone legit thought I was on easy ) I didn’t die somehow in the whole mission

@@THEPhantom2077 Pfff normal might as well be easy. On normal, you can easily do the entire mission with all stats at 3 and no cyberware.

3:55 Smasher being Smasher
the Adam smasher rework on don't fear the reaper was intense he would zero me the second he got close, and just turn off my cyberdeck occasionally.
100% it made bezerk mandatory for a melee build. Sandy didn't do shit against Smasher, he'd just graze you and you'd end up a smear on the wall.
@@caad5258Well, cause now we really can feel what canonical Smasher is.
@@caad5258Sandy helps evade a lot of his attacks…
f you're using a mantis blades berserk build then this fight can be over in less than a minute on very hard.
@@Matikz007 Berserk is op, especially if you combine it with iconic reflex tuner, it's basically sandy + berserk at the same time
FINALLY LORE ACCURATE BOSS FIGHT

Finally Smasher gets to use his rudimentary upgrade :D

and romance adam?
:3
hes got cute eyes,you gotta admit,i bet hed give good head,just for the guys who like teeth tho

Gorilla Fists + Very Hard = Maximum adrenaline. Add a double barrel shotgun and you're borderline canon.
I really wish 2077 could buff more those bosses.
They did
Buff it more until he is like a fucking dark souls boss, buff it more I'll say

dude same i made it hard for myself too intentionally by using nehan, satori and a militech tricon
Made David look like a pawn and yet V took him out. V is on a whole other level than the edgerunners
Even if he's not too hard, at least he's cinematic now

Adam Smasher as Sword Saint Isshin.
A netrunner who fights in a fist fight?! Well, well...
I thought you pulled out an umbrella for a second XD
Everybody uses guns to fight Adam smasher you use your fists.
seeing those turrents and hacks plus the pause in this video just make me think I am wasting my time
this patch will be perfect once they fix melee finishers. the only ones i get are the slow motion lunge and none of the cool ones.
I was hoping he'd say this after the patch:
Rudimentary implant
Detonate grenades halves his health immediately begining the fight. Would be cheating but his one arm phase has a rocket volley that flatlines V if it catches you standing so im calling it even.
You can really run out of bullets during this fight in the Dont Fear The Reaper ending.
You every played Fallout 2? This boss and the way you play, reminds me of Fallout 2's final battle
Now *this* feels like the Boogeyman of Night City
I didn't even notice the upgraded fight berserk burning Gorilla arms for the win
I read the title as ‘Adam Sandler buff 2.0’
Now, imagine if in patch 2.2, Adam gains the ability to counter your healing... Yea, that sounds fun, don't it?
Kinda wanted to fight him before the rework but guess that ain't happening any time soon
Looks harder, but not by much. A good Tech weapon will probably still run his fade.
a stealth approach will also take care of him.
I have never seen a beating of that caliber
I don’t understand what smasher is doing for half this fight. He’s saying “come face me” but running from v the whole time 😂
im still waiting for the mantis blades to have ninja tricks and a stealth takedown. i seriously wish i could wall hang.
Hooray. Now I have to do more than circle strafe and spam click to beat him.
They made him scary especially when you don't haver any healing items
Nice build
imagine adam smasher going into cybersychosis
The funny thing is he's already a cyberpsycho
He's already a cyberpsycho, just a high functioning one who's more machine than man.
I think more defense for Smasher, more speed, need more RAM to hack would be good
I'm gonna fight him on max with an ordnance build in spite of the fact that progression shards are STILL broken on PS5
He still has a brain
I doubt Arasaka is ever using him again 😂
