Which mode should you choose for Skippy in Cyberpunk 2077?

Once you pick up the legendary Skippy pistol, you'll quickly notice what makes it a unique weapon. In fact, like a certain Claptrap in Borderlands, Skippy is a real talker who doesn't let go for a moment. But at the first conversation he will make a very important choice for you. In fact, It offers you the option to choose between the following shooting modes:

• Merciless murderer
• Animal-loving pacifist

The first mode makes Skippy a real killing machine as you only use it to do headshots. The second makes it much weaker as it uses non-lethal bullets that take much longer to neutralize your enemies. But contrary to what you might think, if you really want to keep and get the most out of Skippy, You definitely need to ask him to use animal-friendly pacifist mode. Regardless of which option you choose, Skippy will actually choose to change modes permanently once you neutralize 50 enemies with your first option. When you start with Merciless Killer mode, you get a pistol that is wasted after 50 kills.

Should we return Skippy to Regina Jones in Cyberpunk 2077?

Once you have neutralized 50 people with Skippy, you can continue to use it as you wish for a short period of time. After a certain amount of time, they will contact you again and ask you to return it to the original owner. You will then have the choice of whether to listen to it or not, which will start the mission The machine gun.

If you made the mistake of choosing the “Merciless Killer” mode when picking it up, there is no doubt: return the weapon to Regina Jones. But even if you made the right choice to begin with, we strongly advise you to return the weapon as well. In fact, If you return it to Regina Jones, she will reset it to zero, removing the AI ​​from the weapon. She then offers to buy it back or return it to you for 7000 credits. Skippy, renamed Daisy for the occasion, will still have the same shooting mode he got stuck in after 50 eliminations Above all, it will no longer have the opportunity to disturb you.

If you don't turn Skippy back into Regina Jones, his voice will instead become much more annoying than before. He will regularly insult you and even try to harass you by shooting randomly at times you don't want him to, such as during infiltration phases.
