Lucyna Kushinada, also called "Lucy," is a highly skilled Netrunner who serves as David Martinez's lover in the Cyberpunk 2077-inspired Cyberpunk: Edgerunners. While many fans consider the feisty and lovable Rebecca the top female character in the show, no one will likely deny that Lucy's elegant yet deadly style in combat is second to none. Furthermore, she fights in a manner that contrasts with David, who prefers to powerhouse his way through enemies in Night City. Therefore, if players aim to create an Edgerunners Lucy build for Cyberpunk 2077, they must consider which in-game Cyberware and related items would best fit her style.
The first element of a Lucy Netrunner build in Cyberpunk 2077 would be her signature melee weapon — the Monowire. Manufactured by Kendachi, this Arms Cyberware can shred apart flesh and metal with a single yet exceptionally flexible wire. The Epic Monowire can be purchased from multiple Rippedoc vendors across Night City, but players are encouraged to aim for the Legendary variant, which can be obtained from the Ripperdocs in Downtown and Wellsprings for €$35,650 at 45 SC (Street Cred).
While Lucy's Monowire can take out groups of hostiles within a few swings, players should also focus on her role as a Netrunner. According to the YouTube channel KhrazeGaming, the best Netrunner Cyberdeck for an Edgerunners Lucy build in Cyberpunk 2077 would undoubtedly be the NetWatch Netdriver Mk.5, which offers exceptionally high Base Ram, Ram recovery, and bonus damage. This Cyberware can be purchased from the Wellsprings Ripperdoc for €$35,000 at 40 SC.
Best Lucy Netrunner Build In Cyberpunk 2077
Here is an index of additional Cyberware for a Lucy build in Cyberpunk 2077 for players who wish to enhance their stealth or combative capabilities. Of course, Lucy was not capable of slowing down time like David in the show; however, being granted several extra seconds to line up strikes with the Monowire can be extremely helpful in fast-paced combat.

While Abilities and Perks will depend on player preference, Lucy fans should focus on maxing their Intelligence and Reflexes before other Character Stats. Hacking skills and the ability to weaken enemies through Breach Protocol are also essential for an optimal Lucy build in Cyberpunk 2077.
