Cyberpsychos in Phantom Liberty

[Avocato]

I met a couple of cyberpsychos in Dogtown, but they didn't have a quest. I just wandered somewhere. One day I was just walking around the city and climbed into the greenhouse, I wanted to see what was there. Is there any quest specifically for them? As it was before, is it possible to continue that quest? Or can they be found without a quest now? Or do they not relate to any quest at all?

I haven't seen them yet but Kurt likes to discuss at least one of them over the radio. If it does anything at all to influence gameplay, it might prompt Kurt to offer a few more dialog lines if you've killed the cyberpsycho or two that he talks about on the open broadcast.

I don't think so. There is a specific quest line for these.

You can walk up on 'quests' in the game or you can select a quest in the list and it will show you where to go. But selecting the quest does not spawn the quest as far as I can tell. The quests are already there and you can find them naturally by exploring if you choose to do so. This lines up with how the Witcher series worked as well.

It is actually advisable to explore Night City a bit instead of just running to each specific quest. You will run into dynamic events that happen and it is a good way to get loot, sell it for credits and level up as well.

They painstakingly built this city for you. Enjoy it. Take time to stop and smell the flowers along the way.

That's the point: there is no quest. In a base game after neutralizing a cyberpsycho Regina always calls and there are some entries in the journal. Now there is nothing like that, I just neutralized one and that’s it.

He is talking about the DLC, not the base game.

Are you talking about the Increased Criminal Activity bosses? Two of those (Ayo Zarin and Ross Ulmer) are what I'd describe as "cyberpsychos" I guess (with the difference that they won't indiscriminately attack their allies)

Yes, I've found 3 so far and they are not associated with the story.
When exploring I found it and believe me, Dog Town has a lot to explore.

I haven't seen cybermaniacs in dog town so far, I've only come across some real mean fighting machines with triple skulls on them on the minimap, but they are not chrome eating junkies as far as I know, one was decked with the same power armor that Royce had, and another was netrunner voodoo dame with almost instant quickhacks to throw at me, and both of them had army of lackeys to back them up.

Exploring Dogtown, I found 4 cyberpsychos, all with victims littered around and a data shard that sets some context. Each time a pretty cool encounter.
I don't think they have any related quest as the main cyberpsychos sighting quest can be completed without the expansion - pinging Regina doesn't do anything (but there's a gig in PL that would [redacted]… ;) ).
I was wondering if there were more of them (gig, and ourselves excluded).

[edit: found 5 of them - sill very obvious setup w/ shard(s) for context and fun fight]

This are no cyberpsycho but cyberjunkies...
They are 11 in Dogtown.
