| Tier | Iconic |
| Location | Rancho Coronado |
The BFC 9000 is a novelty one-handed club with a very serious crit bonus. It has a large boost to crit chance, faster attacks and extra reach. A light blunt weapon can therefore land quick critical hits from a little farther away than its size suggests. It is a fun choice for a Body brawler. The BFC 9000 lies on a body at a crashed AV below the dam in Rancho Coronado.
Combat
The BFC 9000 is a fast one-handed blunt weapon. Its large crit chance bonus means many of its hits land as crits. The extra attack speed lets V land those hits quickly. The extra range lets V strike from just outside an enemy's reach. Like other blunt weapons, it knocks enemies out instead of killing them. It is therefore useful in jobs that want a target taken alive.
How to Get BFC 9000 Guide
- Travel to the Dam Viewpoint in Rancho Coronado.
- Cross to the far end of the dam and look over the edge facing Rancho Coronado.
- Find the crashed AV and Hugo Selvig on a rocky ledge below.
- Loot the BFC 9000 from Hugo's body.

Character Builds
The club works best with the blunt perks in the Body tree. Wrecking Ball cuts the Stamina cost of blunt attacks, which keeps the fast swings going. Quake adds blunt attack speed, which adds to the club's own bonus. Clapback adds knockdown and stun chance to defensive attacks and counterattacks. Finisher: Savage Sling adds a blunt finisher that restores Health.
For cyberware, crit damage works well with a high crit chance. The BioDyne Berserk adds crit chance and crit damage while it is active. Microrotors raise melee attack speed even further.

A shotgun blows enemies apart, and a club, bat, hammer or bare fists beat down whatever survives. Gorilla Arms keep the character armed in high security areas.
