Cyberpunk2077 - Crafting for fun and Profit!

Howdy everyone! Today I wanted to do a quick Cyberpunk 2077 crafting for profit guide so you can make all the eddy's you need. Specifically, I am doing this in order to buy all the cars in the game. This is 100% in game mechanics and does not involve duplicating items. Although, I do have a little trick at the end of the video to get more rare and epic crafting components. that might end up patched at some point cause it doesn't seem right.

And since I talk too much, I am going to make a TL;DW version up front and then get into the details in the second part. As always, if you like what you are seeing, drop me a like and a subscribe and if you have something to add or change in this, don't be shy, drop it in the comments.

So let's get into it, Crafting for fun and profit! Well profit anyway. I wont lie, this isn't super fun, but there are ways to make it seem less like of a grind.

The basic of this guide is to craft the green (uncommon) sniper rifle Nekomata. Then sell them at the drop points.

Couple thoughts on this. It's important to stay in the greens here, cause once you get into crafting Rare level items, the components are much more well Rare. :D

Also, drops points only have 20k funds. These refresh every day. So you can either stand at one drop point and skip 24 hours or you can move drop point to drop point. This gives you a chance to get in more encounters and it's more fun than just skipping time to replenish the 20k funds.

For Perks, stay in the Technical Ability Crafting tree and grab anything that gives you more components or decreases the component costs per craft.

Ok, let's dive in a bit further here.

For general advice, I would suggest not upgrading your weapons. Until you are level 50 maybe.

The amount of materials you need to upgrade a weapon after the first 1 or 2 times is excessive. IMO components are much better spent on making money later.
