Where the hell...

...do I find a crafting bench in Cyberpunk? I'm level 40 and didn't know these existed.

Thanks-

They don't, but you'll find a crafting tab in your inventory, right beneath your backpack. ;)

There is no crafting bench. You craft in your inventory in the crafting tab.

Right. Thanks! This is how I've been crafting. But for quickhacks, I specifically need "crafting components", and I don't see what I'm missing. I can't see any way to craft "quickhack components." Not that these are different from simply upgrading say tier 4 to tier 5 components. You need, again "quickhack components" to craft tier 5 quickhacks. 12 specifically. Mine is stuck at 11. I have 44 Tier 5 components, which work fine for say upgrading "chrome". But without the so called "quick hack component", I can't craft quick hacks at the level my tier 5 deck will support. What am I missing?

Thanks as always y'all!

Pretty sure quickhack components can be obtained from quickhack vendors, scrapping unwanted quickhacks, and hacking access points

Quickhack components from what i know can be found in 2 places.

You get them from hacking access points (The third combination should be giving the best quickhack components) which is based on your level. As you level up, you should be getting more tier 5 quickhack components from the minigame

You can also buy them from quickhack vendors, such as the one you pick up the ping quickhack early on. There's a tab in the vendor that holds the components and they have stock of them, but they are expensive from what i remember.

If you keep hacking data points in various places, you will eventually be downloading both high-level components and quickhack patterns. If you want to raise the quality of
quickhack components higher than Tier 2 (IIRC) you have to buy crafting patterns at a netrunner shop...either Yoko in Kabuki market or the shop in Japantown. Watch out...those crafting patterns are expensive.

I don't think you can buy quickhack components from from vendors. You only get them from hacking and from dismantling quickhacks, like EJR mentions.

In addition, you can craft higher tier components by combining lower tier ones. The netrunner vendors, the ones with the quickhack icon, are the only place you can buy the skills to craft those higher tier components, and those skills are very expensive.

(Sorry, I didn't notice Tokenn's post until after I posted :))

Thanks everybody for the advice. I seem to have no trouble buying the quickhack patterns mentioned above. But the components to build them seem perpetually stuck (in my case) as insufficient; says I have 10/12 I need to craft tier 5. This is annoying I didn't seem to have similar troubles with crafting said tier 4 components....

Again, thanks much!

What I'm looking to build specifically says "Tier 5 Components"

Hi Bjorn,

Yeah, I seem to have no trouble up-crafting lower tier components into higher tier components. It just doesn't provide me with "Tier 5 Components", which also have an entirely distinct icon than straight up "Tier 5 Item Components." The quickhack components have a graphic depiction completely distinct from simple "Tier 5 Components."

Ugh. Anyway, thanks sincerely for your patience and help everybody!!!!!!!

I don't recall 2 different types of tier 5 components from the top of my head, but iconic quichacks also use the same tier 5 components to craft as the normal tier 5 ones, only many more. Not sure if that is related.

But remember you also get the quichacks themselves - including iconics - from hacking terminals and antennas and such, so unless you really need one of them right now, just keep hacking until you get the one(s) you want.

But of course, the hacks that are dropping are related to your current level, so if you're still level 20 (for example) but have upgraded your cyberdeck to be able to use tier 5 hacks, you won't get those high tier hacks.

Hi Bjorn-

The difference in the visual is both the label (tier 5 components vs. Tier 5 "Item" components) and in the small square visual. Tier 5 components look like a generic CPU while the "components" look like a blue circuity board. Wish I was more skilled at inserting photos into Steam, and I'd just give you that.

In any case--- thanks!

Ah yes I guess those are normal crafting components? For crafting and upgrading weapons. Then there are other components for crafting and upgrading quickhacks, discussed earlier.

Item components have different icons depending on the tier, or colour, so they are a bit more confusing compared to quickhack components, which look the same except for their colour, if I remember correctly.

Item components you get from dismantling weapons and clothes, or from looting. Can't buy those anywhere either. Dismantling weapons is the quickest way. You'll get 5-7 components from each. One from clothes.

Maybe from other places I don't remember now as well.
