In Cyberpunk 2077, there are three operating systems which can be utilized by your character all of which grants different capabilities. They are called Cyberdecks, Berserks, and the one we will be focusing on in this article: Sandevistans.
These items provide the player with the ability to move faster; in other words, go slow motion. There are 10 Sandevistan implants dispersed throughout the map, which might be motivation for players to explore and find these items benefiting their build.
1. Militech “Falcon” Sandevistan Mk. 5
This item is an Iconic tier Cyberware implant produced by Militech which enhances the characters reflexes and accuracy in combat. “Falcon” slows down time for the perspective of the player along with other effects it offers in terms of critical chance and critical damage.
If you are planning to or currently have a character who masters a mobilized approach towards combat, there is no chance that you will dislike this item. Compared to other Sandevistan implants, its cooldown time which is 60 seconds might seem too much. Yet, it should be mentioned that this is not an item that you will be spamming all the time. Instead, you can consider it similar to an “ultimate” skill which should be used at the right time.
What Militech “Falcon” Sandevistan Mk. 5 excels in:
- It provides the player with an acceptable time slowdown which is 30% for 18 seconds.
