Requires License To Chrome

Ambidextrous opens another cyberware slot in V's hands. Hand implants are where the weapon handling and ammunition effects live, so another one is another layer on whatever V is shooting. It sits in the cyberware branch of the Technical Ability tree. A slot is worth more than almost any single modifier.

Effect

Slots are the scarcer resource in a cyberware build. Capacity can be raised by several perks and implants, but the number of places to put chrome is fixed.

Adding one in the hands means a build can take a second handling or ammunition implant without dropping anything. What that is worth depends entirely on what goes into it.

How to Unlock Ambidextrous

It sits behind the Phenom gate of the Technical Ability tree and is bought from License To Chrome.

Perk Tree

Ambidextrous is bought from License To Chrome in the Technical Ability tree.

Buying Ambidextrous opens the perks below.

Name Image Tier Effect
Doomlauncher Doomlauncher Phenom (15) Projectile Launch System cyberware receives: +1 max charges. +20% recharge speed. +25% additional recharge speed when you have no charges available. +200% additional recharge speed outside of combat. +5% instant recharge after neutralizing an enemy. It also receives the same bonus as grenades from Burn This City.

Character Builds

It belongs to a cyberware build with a hand implant it wants to double up on, which usually means weapon handling or ammunition effects.

Buy it at the Phenom gate from License To Chrome. Doomlauncher needs it bought, so a build heading for the Projectile Launch System takes it on the way. Capacity has to come from somewhere, which is where Renaissance Punk and the Engineer skill come in.

Notes

Doomlauncher needs it bought, and that perk is the one that overhauls the Projectile Launch System.

Renaissance Punk and the Engineer skill both raise the capacity that the new slot will consume.
