Updated on March 1, 2024 by Ritwik Mitra: Update 4.0 was a major step in the right direction for Cyberpunk 2077. The game has turned its reputation around to become one of the best video games ever made, and CD Projekt Red has finally made up for one of the most disastrous video game launches in history. Players who love Cyberpunk 2077 to bits will love using the game's many attachments to wreak havoc against enemies, with the best of the bunch boasting some really high stats. As such. this article has been updated to feature more attachments, and to provide players with info on where to find them.

18 XC-10 Alecto

Tier 3

Most muzzles in Cyberpunk 2077 affect the weapon's damage, but at the same time, most have trade-offs that can compensate. If players attach this silencer to one of the better pistols, "Dying Night," the base stats of the pistol can compensate for the 15% damage reduction. The XC-10 Alecto increases the damage multiplier by 2.5%, but when players are silenced, it doesn't give away the player like other muzzles do.

However, that damage multiplier is negligible because of how much more the player will hit. With the base damage of the "Dying Night" along with the multiplier, players may hit harder than ever.

Where To Find

Players looking to get this muzzle can simply do the first NCPD scanner hustle for Rancho Coronado for the crime called Assault in Progress, or the fourth crime in Little China called Hidden Gem.

17 E255 Percipient

Tier 1-4

Cyberpunk 2077 has a ton of places where firefights can happen. Night City is a diverse world and shows how different enemies fight in different situations. The E255 Percipient scope shows how not every place is the same. Players need to fight at a distance with this scope; however, it can be applied in most situations that need a sniper.

If players are fighting at night, this scope can light up the area when players are looking through it. On top of that, this scope has one of the fastest aim-down sights times in Cyberpunk 2077. While players may shy away from sniping in Cyberpunk 2077, this scope makes it more manageable.

Where To Find

Enemies usually drop this scope in both the Badlands and Night City.

16 CS-1 Taipan

Tier 1-4

Despite the damage drop that all silencers have, the CS-1 Taipan has many benefits. Cyberpunk 2077 has a wide range of bosses, and some are harder to take down than others. The silencers help balance it out. If players choose to run in, taking down these bosses will be harder, since players have to deal with their henchmen as well. However, if players take a quiet route by using silencers, they can effectively take down these harder enemy types.

If players have a stealth build, this silencer will complement it. Even if they don't, it'll still help them more than other silencers. This silencer is a bare-bones attachment and does exactly what it's supposed to, so there won't be any surprises.

Where To Find

Much like the XC-10 Strix silencer, players need to build their Street Cred to level 19 for this to become available at weapon vendors.

15 Mk.2X Grandstand

Tier 1-4

This scope is very versatile and can make most weapons' range and accuracy better. If players can get the jump on enemies with the body perk "Guerilla," it gives players a 60% damage increase within the first 10 seconds of the firefight. The Mk.2X Grandstand allows that to happen much more often. With the viewfinder built-in, players will be exiting combat much more quickly than the enemy can react to them.

If players already have the "Edgerunner Artisan" perk, allowing them to craft legendary weapons, it makes the stats of the scope even better.

Where To Find

This scope can be found at most vendors. The other option is completing the crime in Arroyo called Hidden Gem.

14 RC-7 Kutrub

Tier 3-4

Ricocheting bullets in Cyberpunk 2077 make for a great time, as players unleash tactical shots to take out their enemies in an engaging manner. This can be a bit technical, but players who opt to use Smart weapons can unlock an additional layer to combat as they wallop their enemies with these weapons. There's nothing more satisfying than using a ricochet to hit enemies in cover and deal some impressive damage in the process.

There are many muzzle brakes that players can use to make this easier for themselves. The RC-7 Kutrub is a great muzzle brake that players can use if ricocheting bullets is their jam. This attachment is perfect for pistols and revolvers. Players who want to spice things up for themselves can use these handguns with the Kutrub to increase ricochet angle and chance while decreasing bullet spread.

Where To Find

Players have a good chance of purchasing this weapon from Robert Wilson in V's building after completing Shoot to Thrill.

13 RC-7 Yokai

Tier 3-4

There are many automatic weapons that players can get their hands on in the game, namely assault rifles and submachine guns. These weapons are great for players who want to spray a wealth of bullets without a care in the world, taking out multiple targets as they empty magazines without too many issues. These weapons are incredibly satisfying to use, and players who love the ricochet effect should use a muzzle brake to enhance the chance of the same.

The RC-7 Yokai is functionally identical to the Kutrub. The only difference is that it fits automatic weapons instead of handguns. It can be really effective if players get the highest tier, turning a player's weapon into something truly special and deadly in the right hands.

Where To Find

Once again, Robert Wilson is the person that players should visit if they want a chance of obtaining this muzzle brake.

12 XC-10 Strix

Tier 3-4

Silencers are great in Cyberpunk 2077 because they allow players to fight in more ways than being loud. It'll take longer, but players will be rewarded with more XP. One of the best things about the game is its good side missions. The Pisces side mission requires players to either kill the Tiger Claw leaders, or side with them. Killing the leaders is easier if players can be stealthy about it. All silencers lower the damage to weapons, including the XC-10 Strix, so it's best for players to sneak up on enemies and one-shot them.

To balance the damage drop, the XC-10 Strix gets a crit advantage, meaning players have a higher chance of doing a lot of damage at a closer range.

Where To Find

To get this silencer, players need to build their Street Cred up to 9 by doing side missions. After that, most vendors will have it in their inventory.

11 Hyakume

Tier 3-4

This scope can work on a range of weapons. Before Patch 1.5, the Hyakume was fine, but it didn't change much. Since players can put this scope on any pistol or submachine gun, it will increase the range. If the weapon itself has a good range spec, that increases even more.

Because this is a holographic scope, players don't need to worry about checking their ammo or surroundings. On top of that, it has a target identifier that can target up to four enemies at once. This not only helps players get a good understanding of targets but also increases the player's accuracy. Pair this scope with the clothing mod "Dead Eye," which increases crit shot to 100%.

Where To Find

The best part about this mod is that it can be bought at any vendor or easily looted from downed enemies.

10 TSX Tocororo

Tier 3-4

Most people wouldn't really want to put a silencer on their Power weapon since it makes more sense to use these weapons for their outright firepower instead of relying on sneak kills. There are better avenues to go for in this department. Yet, at the same time, there's something strangely alluring about using these bulky weapons in stealth.

The TSX Tocororo helps players out in this regard. This silencer turns Power weapons into dealers of death, which makes for a rather entertaining way to play this game.

Where To Find

This is an attachment that has a decent chance of being obtained as a random loot drop.

9 RC-7 Aswang Muzzle Brake

Tier 4

There's no reason not to put a muzzle brake on their weapon. They increase damage, ricochet intensity, and the total number of times bullets ricochet from a surface. The end result is a great weapon that players can easily use to kill numerous enemies without any issues, and the RC-7 Aswang will prove to be quite invaluable in this regard.

This muzzle brake comes in various rarities and can augment V's weapon extensively. It comes in various rarities, with the number of ricochets increasing even more if the muzzle brake is Epic or rarer. It's a simple but effective weapon mod that players should definitely use when they get their hands on it.

Where To Find

It can be purchased from the gun shop near V's apartment after completing the quest Shoot To Thrill.

8 Type 2067

Tier 4

A fun scope that players can attach to their weapon to get an edge on their enemies is the Type 2067. Players can enhance the range of their weapon with this attachment considerably, which is going to be useful for obvious reasons.

The spread of a weapon is also reduced to make shots more accurate. With the additional zoom, players can hide in cover and take potshots from a distance to make things easier for themselves and harder on their enemies.

Where To Find

This attachment can be purchased from Weapon Vendors at level 30.

7 RC-7 Liger

Tier 4

For some attachments, players won't notice their effect unless they read what they do. Muzzles are one of those attachments. Players will notice how fluid their shooting becomes since it can go only with pistols and revolvers. Not only do ricochet shots become fluid, but players can shoot at the limbs of enemies, which makes gunplay really fun and over the top.

Since Cyberpunk 2077 has some very powerful pistols, the accuracy, and the ricochet shots make players a threat to all classes of enemies in Cyberpunk 2077. Since the RC-7 Liger can be put on pistols and revolvers, players can down more enemies faster and more often.

Where To Find

Players can buy this muzzle from Robert Wilson in the Megabuilding, but it won't be in his inventory all the time.

6 HPO Kanone MAX Mk.77

Tier 1-5

Sniper rifles are extremely powerful long-range weapons that take out enemies with ease. These weapons hit like a truck and allow V to remain fairly inconspicuous as he kills foes from a distance without breaking a sweat. However, a sniper rifle needs a good scope to be effective, and there are many options.

One such scope that players can find is the HPO Kanone MAX Mk.77 scope, which doesn't seem very special at first glance. However, for a piece of loot that is pretty common, this scope turns most sniper rifles into amazing dealers of death that can easily take out most foes in a single, accurate shot.

Where To Find

Can be found as a random loot drop pretty frequently.

5 E305 Prospecta

Tier 1-5

This scope is for long-range weapons, mainly snipers. Increasing zoom by 3.0, the player's accuracy will increase even more because of that zoom. It also has an angel finder built in, which changes sniper performance drastically. There are tons of excellent snipers to attach this scope to.

To make the right build with this scope, players should consider cyberwares, specifically those that have to do with the player's eyes. "Visual Cortex Support," for example, increases crit damage by 90%, making harder-hitting targets easier to take down.

Where To Find

Getting the E305 Prospecta isn't hard, since it can be found at most vendors. Players can also complete a reported crime in The Glen, where it can be found on top of one of the buildings in a bag.

4 RC-7 Strigoi

Tier 1-5

Typically, shotguns in Cyberpunk 2077 do not have the best aim but have deadly damage. That rule still applies to the better shotguns, because they require players to be close to the enemy. However, while muzzles hurt the damage a bit, the RC-7 Strigoi is quite different. It enhances many weapons, and for shotguns, it's particularly noticeable.

The ricochet damage comes in handy when players are running and gunning. Even better, this mod reduces the recoil of the weapon. For shotguns. With it, players can hit the target more and increase the crit damage over time.

Where To Find

Getting this muzzle is quite easy. All players need to do is beat the "Shoot to Thrill" side mission, which is located in the same mega building as V's apartment. It becomes available to buy after that.

3 Jue

Tier 3-5

Cyberpunk 2077 players can run with guns blazing, or they can use their cyberware to take down enemies more creatively. However, one of the better ways to play is using a sniper rifle, one with an amazing scope that can help the player's accuracy. The Jue scope is a long-range digital scope that helps players get headshots more often than not.

Players who use this scope should primarily fight from long distance because the ADS time is slower than most other scopes in its class. Its long range makes Jue one of the best scopes for players to get in Cyberpunk 2077.

Where To Find

The best part about Jue is that it's quite simple to get. It can be bought from Robert Wilson after players have finished the Shoot To Thrill side mission.

2 Kanetsugu

Tier 4-5

Scopes make aiming way more satisfying in Cyberpunk 2077. Sure, aiming down the sights is effective no matter what, but scopes make things look more visually engaging if nothing else. So, it's easy to see why some people would prefer using the best version of this attachment in the game.

The Kanetsugu is one such scope that lets players enjoy a wealth of benefits to make shooting more engaging. Better range, crit chance, and crit damage are always welcome in a game where damage numbers are all that matter in the grand scheme of things.

Where To Find

This attachment can be purchased from Weapon Vendors at level 30.

1 XC-10 Cetus

Tier 4-5

There are many silencers that players can obtain in Cyberpunk 2077. The vast majority of them are quite useful in stealth if players like to take out enemies from the shadows. The XC-10 Cestus is a decent silencer in this regard, lowering damage by 25% but offering a higher chance to land a critical while also giving a damage multiplier in stealth.

If enemies aren't at a very high level, it's possible that any powerful weapon with this silencer can one-shot most enemies in stealth. While there are arguably better attachments to put on a weapon, players who aren't too picky can use this one to great effect.

Where To Find

The best part is that the XC-10 is readily available. Players can easily purchase this from most street vendors after getting 9 Street Cred.
