Cyberpunk 2077: item tiers by level and crafting rules
by GG Guides ·
Since update 2.0, each item Tier unlocks at a player level: from then on it becomes widely available from vendors and in loot.
Weapons Tier 1 — level 1 Tier 2 — level 9 Tier 3 — level 17 Tier 4 — level 25 Tier 5 — level 33 Tier 5++ — level 51 (Phantom Liberty only)
Cyberware Tier 1 — level 1 Tier 2 — level 10 Tier 3 — level 20 Tier 4 — level 30 Tier 5 — level 40
You can still find weapons of lower or higher Tiers. Every Tier has a Tier+ variant, an improvement with no extra level requirement.
Crafting and upgrades Crafting panel in the main menu: you need a Crafting Spec and the required components. Specs come from loot or vendors. Components are looted or obtained by disassembling items of the same tier. Iconic weapons: raise their stats and move them to the next Tier in the Upgrades tab of the Crafting menu. Equipped cyberware: upgrade it at ripperdocs with components matching its quality.
