Overview

This Cyberware is great if you like using Bladed Weapons and Throwable Weapons, as it will increase the Crit Chance of these weapons.

How to Get Stabber

The Stabber is fairly easy to obtain, as they can be purchased at any Ripperdoc after level 20. The tier you can purchase them at will increase at every 10 levels.

Best Uses for Stabber

The Stabber is only meant to be used if your build uses Bladed Weapons or Throwable Weapons — if you’re not using either one, this Cyberware is completely useless.

High Reflexes builds will get some extra use out of this Cyberware, as it will slightly increase your Crit Chance for each point invested.

Build Combinations for the Stabber

If you like using the Sandevistan series of Operating System Cyberware, then the Dynalar or Militech “Falcon” versions will pair well with the Stabber, as it will further increase your Crit Chance while also increasing Crit Damage. For Throwing Weapons specifically, this Cyberware can pair well with the Handle Wrap (in the Hand section), to further increase their Crit Chance.

For using Blades, the Perks Finisher: Bladerunner and Flash of Steel (in the right side of the Reflexes tree) will increase the attack speed of Blades, allowing you to potentially Crit more. On the right side of the Cool tree, Scorpion Sting will cause your Thrown Weapon Crit Hits to Poison enemies, while Parasite will cause them to heal you. Finally, Sleight of Hand will Increase your Crit Damage when Juggler is activated, allowing the Stabber to increase your damage even more.
