Power weapons are one of the weapon classes in Cyberpunk 2077, where players will need to aim manually at targets, unlike Smart weapons. Other than that, this weapon class in the game has the capacity to deal a tremendous amount of burst damage.

Effect High chance of applying Bleeding but a low chance to apply Stun

The biggest advantage of using the Gold-Platted Baseball Bat iconic melee weapon is that the weapon comes with a high chance of applying a bleeding status effect. This melee weapon is infused with something called Denny’s Rage, which gives it the bleed passive effect perk.

If you want to obtain a Gold-Platted Baseball Bat in Cyberpunk 2077, then you must play the side job called the Second Conflict. The weapon can be acquired after looting Denny’s pool. Again, it is not challenging to find this weapon, and it can be missed, so keep your eyes peeled.

If I have to name an iconic katana melee weapon that has at least three unique effects, then Jinchu-Maru would be a one-word answer.

One of the best effects of Jinchu-Maru is that you get a 100% Critical hit chance whenever Kerenzikov is active while fighting enemies. Lastly, the weapon does nearly double damage on enemies that have at least twice the health of your character in the game. This is by far one of the best katanas if you like to fight high-level enemies in the game.

To top it off, this melee weapon also comes with a decent chance of applying the bleed status effect on its targets.

Acquiring Scalpel is pretty easy as you only need to play and compete in the side job called Big in Japan. You’d get the weapon after clearing the side job and start slashing foes in style.

My Experience With The Iconic Weapons

cyberpunk 2077 why trust me
My hours of Cyberpunk 2077

As someone who has a combined time of 150+ hours on both PC and PS5 (Steam ID: LIONT4MER) via cross-save, Jackie Wells' La Chingona Dorada pistols are easily my favorite Iconic Weapons right now in Cyberpunk 2.0 as I used a hybrid Netrunner build with these pistols, along with raising my crit damage to make them do easy one-shot headshot damage to enemies with a silencer.

However, besides these pistols, I also love Johnny's Malorian Pistol due to its satisfying effects, as well as the Jinchu-Maru Katana due to its crit damage multiplier stats,
