Cyberpsycho Sighting: The Wasteland Choices and Best Choice

Quickhack Offense or Tactical Offense

Quickhack Offense If you have quickhacks such as System Reset, Weapon Glitch, or Short Circuit, you can use them to paralyze the cyberpsycho who is wearing an exosuit, making damaging him difficult. Through these quickhacks, you can lower the cyberpsycho's defenses.
Tactical Offense You may actually use snipers and precision rifles to attack the cyberpsycho from afar. You can use the terrain against him by positioning far away. When he rushes you, use EMP grenades to temporarily paralyze him

Best Choice

It is best to use Tactical Offense in this scenario since the effects of Quickhacks is temporary, takes time, and needs a lot of RAM. Plus, this boss will be quite difficult to damage with its high defenses with or without quickhacks. Further, the area where the boss is are filled with explosives making explosions very common, making this mission even harder.

Boss Tips and Strategy

Drag Him Out

Cyberpunk 2077 Cyberpsycho Sighting The Wasteland 05
There are a lot explosives around the area where he is. But, he will chase you down once you attack him no matter where you are. You can use this to your advantage to draw him out, making the explosives a non-factor. The huge desert around you will also make damaging him much easier (and vice versa).

Keep Moving

Cyberpunk 2077 Cyberpsycho Sighting The Wasteland 04
The cyberpsycho will chase you down and when he does he can use his blasters to deal major damage. Luckily, the blasters have a straight path and are quite slow hence very easy to dodge. He also has a wide, rotating sweeping attack that will deal massive damage. Move away or jump to minimize the damage.
