You don't need the recipes just unlock quickhack crafting and you'll be able to make the shit.

This. To craft a legendary, you need a purple version(+ mats , which are easy from access points), and so forth down the line. So save purple ones. Just get the perk and you can automatically craft them.

Quickhack inventory is weird.

Once you unlock a crafting tier, or have one of a certain tier, you'll start getting others/duplicates within that tier when you do datamine breaches (at least if you pick up Datamine Virtuoso). You won't even realize it unless you open the cyberware menu at a vendor, because you can't see the full list in your own inventory. I think the intention was to be able to equip the lower-tier hacks in your cyberware since they require less RAM, or duplicates at different tiers for focused builds, but at some point my cyberware inventory stopped showing everything and now just shows the highest tier of each hack. Also unlocking the legendary crafting only allowed me to make 1 of each hack, but I get lots of duplicates from datamining... which are just vendor fodder for 700 a pop.

Wasn't there for me. Just a standard loot chest.

edit: nevermind reloaded and it was there I think I just looted too fast and you don't see it in your inventory until you goto a ripper

I did abit of reload because there was a sweet crit pants and I died to the psycho the first time. The second time it wasnt there so there seems to be a small chance for sure it will not spawn.

Some of these side quest chains are surprisingly really long and deep. There is a lot to miss if you rush through.

You'll miss a lot of good loot as well. Like I did one side gig and nearby was a dead NCPD dude with legendary pants that made you run faster.

Where are all these great side quests you are all talking about? I’m in ACT 2 and started down a couple main quests and the only thing popping up for me are psycho kill quests, chasing down cars for the robot cabby, and some gun range thing. Maybe I’m in the wrong area or have to phone someone like Mr hands when I’m in Pacifica?

Visiting new areas and getting street cred seem to open up a lot of side missions. I stop whenever i see a random events so I have like 10-15 side missions in my journal. Most are too high level for me, though.

Doing the taxi missions is good since it takes you all over the place and you'll get calls from a lot of the fixers

Act 2 is everything after the title, btw. There is no Act 3.

Is there a way to respec or is it simply a reroll situation?

Ripperdoc Tabula Rasa item lets you respec perks but not stats. Costs $100k.

Cheers. Way off having that kind of money yet but I'm kind of pleased in a way you can't do a full reset as it just massively reduces the playability of a game.

Anybody find the legendary upgrade plans for lizzy or widowmaker yet?

You don't need to find the plans. You do not "upgrade" weapons to another tier (in the sense that you don't use the "upgrade" button), you craft them.
When you get an Iconic weapon/armor, you automatically get the schematics, and they are at the same tier than the weapon. You found a rare iconic weapon ? You get a rare schematic for it. You then have to craft it (at least twice I think), and this will unlock the "upgraded" epic schematic. Want legendary ? craft the epic version first, and you'll get it.

So I figured a way to make money, as well as kind of bork the crafting in this game.

To get right to it, for some mystifying reason, epic consumables can be broken down for epic components. So, if you get the recipe to make a health booster epic item, it only costs like 15 regular crafting components to craft, you craft about 10 of them, then instantly break them down, and you get a good amount of epic crafting components.(lol) I was able to upgrade the Overwatch sniper rifle in like 6 minutes lol.

This is completely broken and should be fixed. I believe you can break down epic grenades as well, not sure.

Anyway, in regards to making money, Ive found the best way is to find enemy camps/assault taking place spots and kill them all, loot them all and sell every single item you get unless its epic or better. Rinse repeat 3 or 4 times you can make an easy 20k-30k. I finally sitting at around 75k money now, and already paid off everything and bought most cybernetics. (lvl 24)

On one hand, it does break the game... but on the other, the crafting itself is so broken if you play normally that you can barely use it at all. And it also requires Tech 18 and a bunch of perks to really get the most out of it, which is a pretty hefty investment.

You can indeed break down the grenades, epic EMP is the easiest to craft (1 white and 1 green with perks) and breaks down into a whole bunch of blue/purple mats. No easy way to make legendary mats out of nothing, but you can easily make enough money to buy all you need from the vendors.
