The Kyubi x-MOD2 is the Iconic variant of the Tsunami Kyubi, a semi-automatic assault rifle built for marksmen. The x-MOD2 adds two guaranteed mod slots and better handling. It also raises the rifle's already strong headshot damage even more. It works like a light battle rifle. It fires one accurate round per pull, deals hard-hitting headshots and has enough range for mid-distance fights. It works best in a Reflexes build that likes to aim rather than spray. The rifle lies at the bottom of a flooded pit in Dogtown, reached with a quick dive. The Kyubi x-MOD2 is a Phantom Liberty find in Golden Pacific, Dogtown. V can get it as soon as Dogtown opens.
Combat
The Kyubi x-MOD2 fires one round per trigger pull. It rewards steady aim at the head, where the Iconic bonus to headshot damage counts most. In open combat, a quick series of aimed shots works at ranges where SMGs and shotguns lose damage.
The rifle takes both a scope and a muzzle attachment, as well as its two mod slots. It can be customised more than most Iconic weapons. A long-range scope and a suppressor turn it into a quiet marksman's rifle. A short sight keeps it quick for fights at mid range.
How to Get Kyubi x-MOD2 Guide
- Reach Dogtown during Phantom Liberty.
- Go to the Golden Pacific fast travel terminal.
- Cross to the water-filled pit opposite the terminal.
- Dive to the bottom of the pit and take the rifle from beside the body.

Character Builds
The Kyubi's perks come from Reflexes, the assault rifle tree. Sharpshooter adds aim speed and weapon control, and each successful shot adds a Sharpshooter stack. Practice Makes Perfect gives crit chance and crit damage for every stack. Salt In The Wound adds bonus damage when the same target takes seven shots in a row. Tunnel Vision adds range and accuracy, and Mind Over Matter cuts recoil while aiming. Ready, Rested, Reloaded lowers Stamina cost and speeds up reloads while Stamina is above half.
For cyberware, the Ballistic Coprocessor raises ricochet chance and damage with Power weapons. Visual Cortex Support adds crit chance the further V is from the enemy. Tyrosine Injector adds headshot damage after a takedown, which helps when starting a fight from stealth. A Sandevistan slows time and gives V a moment to aim at each head.
