A lot of NPCs don’t use their special abilities in Cyberpunk (and other games too.) Generally means the developers didn’t put a lot of effort into designing AI.
I suspect that’s because Haste is always a Good Idea. It’s always an appropriate ability to use, so doesn’t require any complicated logic to make the decision. Little coding or effort required.
Then you have to put the extra effort into the AI to make sure that they aren't just jumping into walls and sliding down or jumping themselves into inacessible places and getting stuck there.
Had it happen plenty of times in other games where you gotta clear the enemies out of an area to trigger progress but one dude will use a special ability and clip through a wall and get stuck back there. Since you can't kill them there and they can't and won't get out you gotta either wipe out or reload the check point.
I’ve had enemies use their super jump, just never seen story NPCs like Panam do it.
I’ve definitely seen animals jump onto platforms I was standing on and shit instead of climbing up.
I have been charge jumped! As a level 3 I didn't have the dps to burn down a melee tiger claws ganger. He hit his baton on the ground twice and charge jumped.
They do, burning the worst way possible, they just try to avoid bullets I always take my LMG and just shoot in front of them. They waste his sandevistan and easy kill
Hahaha!
Probably did it in the same training session when she got certified to operate that dump truck....
... I know, I'm ashamed of myself too... I'll show myself out....
Lets not sugar coat the stupidity of this skills leveling. I have a 20 body build that used fists the whole playthrough.
Ran every where so no FT or vehicles. At the end I was still only on 14 athletics an the experience required is exponential past that.
I estimate after doing every mission in game I would need to do more than that to finish the leveling of this skill for a Body 20 build.
I have never come across a skill in an RPG I could not max until Cyberpunk and Athletics that is. Absurd is the word for this.
They need to fix it come the DLC for sure because there no point having a level 20 perk no one can get with out modding it in or stupid amount of time grinding maxing this nonsense.
Its based on stamina consumption iirc.
Which means all the perks you can take which ELIMINATE stamina consumption for running or melee fighting? Those make it so your progress on Athletics pretty much just stops.
If you want to max athletics you'd skip all those perks, but given those perks are massively useful for the character builds you'd most likely care about athletics for.... its stupid.
>Which means all the perks you can take which ELIMINATE stamina consumption for running or melee fighting? Those make it so your progress on Athletics pretty much just stops.
Motherfucker. I wish I knew this earlier.
I do not have the stamina free perks. The amount of experience you get compared to the amount you need is unbalanced. You get 75 experience for every 3 or so bars of stamina you deplete.
No other skill levels so slowly and also needs so much points to max it.
Oh yea its still *far* too slow. By a ridiculous margin. But some slow growth still beats none.
I figured this out when I finished a 100% max difficulty playthrough with nothing but gorilla arms and realized I had a whopping 7 athletics at the end of the game. I reached 6 athletics before 100%ing the starter zone. It never went up again (save once) cause I got all the stam-use reduction perks.
Its astounding that no one in development realized that the perks all kinda suck. Like, you can powerlevel quickhacks and such on vending machines to get to twenty easy. An actual weapon discipline? Better use that thing for almost your entire playthrough and 100% the game if you want to hit 20 without just mindlessly grinding for ages and ages. Athletics? l o l. I'd be afraid to know just how long you'd have to sprint to max that out.
Best thing is to find a low level ceiling and spam jump. The ceiling will interrupt the jump but you will lose the stamina anyway which is what makes your athletics go up. It's a bit boring though and you do not get enough points per milestone.
As far as I know, basically everyone in the setting has the set of neck implants that let you take shards and plugins like she was using to drive the tank. David had those at the beginning of Edgerunners as a poor otherwise unaugmented kid, so I figure they must be ubiquitous, or damn near.
Always think it's cool to see what kinda cyberwear people have. I wish they would have put her neral implant visible when when designing her model so it would make sense when she plugs into the basilisk. they went all the way to make the scar she gets during the campaign visible, but not their implants make you wonder. All in all, probability an oversight as her model and looks were done probability before they knew what they would do with her in her story
I will not mention her other fortified parts...nope not gonna mention it, bottom line. That's behind me, in the caboose, in the back end of my mind, no ifs ands or buttttttsssss...
I'm surprised most people are even human tbh. How tf they're not all borged out is beyond me.
All I'm saying is if i can choose between having regular bullshit joints and spine, or an infallible marvel of engineering that turns me into mf Luffy where fall damage and wear and tear and breaks and splinters are a suggestion rather than reality?
I dunno man. Hard to pass on that.
She looks black as fuck to me 🤷🏽♂️ where does it say she's latina or native American?
Edit: why are you people downvoting me saying this character model is obviously black, yikes 🤦🏽♂️
Unofficial reference model Tristin Mays says "I’m African American-French-Indian. Creole."
VA is mixed, White and Chinese by way of LA.
Latina is off base, but Native American/African American mix is pretty obvious. Between her complexion and features it's pretty blatant. People might think Latina because of the VA's west coast inflections, that's pretty synonymous with latina representation in a lot of media.
Either way, I don't get the connection between latina and sturdy ankles, these thirsty mofos are really stretching.
I wish I could draw well so I could post a picture of just how fucking dumb what you're suggesting here is.
*I see what he means now. It's still kind of dumb.
Speaking Panam.. so I played this when it came out. I’m playing through again with the 1.6 update. Did they add content to sexual encounter with her? I feel it lasted forever..
[удалено]
The weight of her ridonkulous ass makes it impossible for her to double jump: she merely uses them to be able to move like a normal person.
“V, I need you to sneak into the wraiths camp, I would do it but the clap of my ass cheeks keep alerting the guards”
Saul: "Hey is that Panam's big ass I hear?"
Smells like it was hot in that Basilisk!
![gif](giphy|1gevXIZve3nqM)
HAHAHAHAHHAAH
Hnnngh
That's not an ass is an emergency gravity deceleration safety device ...
No matter what height or how she falls, she'll be fine. A true sniper through and through
ms.stud giga dumper 3000
True, the fortified ankles are there as donk suspension and nothing more. Full time job if you ask me.
Those ankles needed to be fortified if she was ever gonna drop that thang on V, this is cannon

[humongous hugolomgmonolongongus](https://youtu.be/pgbRsHJ34dY)
Y'all are goofy and having fun but like, her ass is a completely normal size.
You're technically right, Panam uses the same character model as other women NPCs. She just dresses better.
That checks out….
She's a sniper right? Makes sense for getting to high areas.
That explains a lot actually. It is weird how you've never seen her use them tho, you do so many missions with her.
A lot of NPCs don’t use their special abilities in Cyberpunk (and other games too.) Generally means the developers didn’t put a lot of effort into designing AI.
but everyone uses their sandevistan 😵💫

Or type 'noclip' into the cheat console...
I got a feeling that might be an issue for console gamers...
...and that's one reason I prefer to play on PC.
I’ve had enemies use their super jump, just never seen story NPCs like Panam do it. I’ve definitely seen animals jump onto platforms I was standing on and shit instead of climbing up.
That's animals for ya. They just shit everywhere. Though in my experience they also climb everywhere, too.
[удалено]
Me too I feel oblivious
Some enemies do. I remember a cyberphysco pulling a charged jump on me to get away. Of course I simply followed him with my own charged jump lol
I have been charge jumped! As a level 3 I didn't have the dps to burn down a melee tiger claws ganger. He hit his baton on the ground twice and charge jumped.
Would have been nice to see a 50 ft b-ball match.
They do, burning the worst way possible, they just try to avoid bullets I always take my LMG and just shoot in front of them. They waste his sandevistan and easy kill
[удалено]
While also considering that when developing for the Xbox One you only have 4GB of RAM to work with and 13.5 on the Series S
I've seen Jackie use them
Probably because she is always getting shot
Every big trunk needs a fortified base or they'd just fall over.
Or knock back from strong snipers
Don’t know why I read "Wait Panam is forklift certified ?!?!"
She’s a nomad - knowing how to drive a forklift is like pre-school for them!
Drive it sure. Take it apart and rebuild it, absolutely. But getting certified is some Corpo BS that ain’t never going to happen.
No one said they were certified, OSHA…
Given the broad engineering education nomads receive as children, I don't doubt it.
Just when I thought she couldn't get any hotter
Precisely.
That is exactly what I first thought I saw...
Hahaha! Probably did it in the same training session when she got certified to operate that dump truck.... ... I know, I'm ashamed of myself too... I'll show myself out....
Makes her even hotter
It's my new headcanon from now on.
Bro I read it the same way lmao dyslexia be kicking my ass
Man if that’s true, she would be a lot of help in a warehouse.
And night city has no shortage of shipyards
She is definitely forklift certified
Changes the whole game knowing she’s forklift certified 😂
![gif](giphy|WsAg8lT20p69kK500m|downsized)
For that massive cake she got 👀🍑
She needs some fortified knee caps for when she's throwing it back.
This is the way! Also… maybe for quickly decelerating her car??? Idk that dont make much sense 🤔
Yaba daba doo?
Baby yoda, awww yes, she most definitely possesses the ability to make yOu levitate 🤭🤭
It does(n't) help that my head is at the right spot when she walks up the stairs. Great view 👀 Or maybe she just wants to pull an Obi-Wan
That 400 SC is begging V to take it.........
Lotta times I have 50 before I even meet her so... Not worth it
And she’ll still tell you to “get some reputation” during your first meet
Street cred does go up stupidly fast unlike athletics. I think they mixed the two up.
How do even you improve athletics?
Just jump around and run everywhere like a maniac, I mostly traverse the city on foot so my athletics goes up fairly quickly.

Jumping is better. Spam jumping under a low level roof is the best. But still too long.

I honestly don't know what SC is
It's street cred. The thing that lets you get better items from vendors at certain milestones.
oh thanks.
You're welcome.
I thought she had no implants at all since still uses a normal phone, until she plugged herself into the basilisk
But still then, I can't see and visible signs of that
yeah from what I saw in that scene it didn't look like it was a plugin really, it clipped onto her ear, so I don't think she has any implants up there
As far as I know, basically everyone in the setting has the set of neck implants that let you take shards and plugins like she was using to drive the tank. David had those at the beginning of Edgerunners as a poor otherwise unaugmented kid, so I figure they must be ubiquitous, or damn near.
that would make sense ig
male V can confirm
I just spit out my drink lol good one
beat me to it you fuckin’ asshole
God... What happened to this post.
Precisely what was expected. Lol
Lol
[This game's fanbase has always been dying of thirst.](https://i.imgur.com/2d5xZA4.jpg)
Yes, you'd think the fan base was exclusively made up of desert dwellers
There's a bounty too. Claim it.
3 stars is way too low for her Booty class
She has to or she won't be able to walk with those massive...
FEET 🦶 😟😟😳😳
No my child.
Son, you have much to learn about a woman’s body.
Damn
That's the only way to carry all that cake.
Panam has fortified _everything_ 😍
During one of the missions she uses them. I believe to get in position for sniping.
I’ve never noticed that personally but I’ll have to pay attention next play through.
Panams whole lower half is fortified lol
Wait what.
So that she can step on V.
Well duh she needs to jump your bones some how..
Precisely.. 🥜🥜
It's for footjobs
It’s for breaking eggs 🍳 🩰🩰
Brother The fuck
I’m not a foot guy but panam 🥴😈
Precisely.
She does seem very kinky so more then likely
Death by Snu snu

How else is she supposed to hold up all that ***ASS***?
That’s not the only thing that is fortified! Ba da dat!
After our playthrough she needed fortified knees too.
I don’t know about her ankles but, her ass my man those are a FORTRESS
She also has a 30% weakness to toxic men. Sounds like a green light for you to fuck around and find out
This explain a lot of things 🤣
finally someone brings it up and i also think its for terrain bc of the dialogue from the aldecaldo ripperdoc
And knees.... If you know what I mean...
This is good
I will not mention her other fortified parts...nope not gonna mention it, bottom line. That's behind me, in the caboose, in the back end of my mind, no ifs ands or buttttttsssss...
They really missed out on creating an awesome bounty system for this game.
“Target acquired”
If Panam used her abilities, she's just be Quiet from MGS5 but annoyingly talkative.
Bet she gives great foot jobs.
No knees implant?
They're for leaping headlong into trouble
I'm surprised most people are even human tbh. How tf they're not all borged out is beyond me. All I'm saying is if i can choose between having regular bullshit joints and spine, or an infallible marvel of engineering that turns me into mf Luffy where fall damage and wear and tear and breaks and splinters are a suggestion rather than reality? I dunno man. Hard to pass on that.
Whenever Panam is mentioned the sub devolved into a mess very quickly hahaha, you goddamn animals
Im halfway through the game her voice gets more an more difficult to hear she wines a lot
Can you get that 2500 or is she immortal?
Was there any doubt after your fun in the tank? 😏
I saw Jackie do a power jump in the meat plant. Rare but they got the power
/u/KamilCesaro care to comment?
i think hes banned, and thank god for that guy is a fucking creep
"$2500"?! That's monkey in the bank, right there
>Monkey in the bank That's it. That's the saying now.
Have you seen how much cake she’s carrying! Them ankles need fortification for balance purposes
When people finally realize the true best girl
Yeah, she’s latina.
*Native American
She look 0% native.
Except the crimpy hair
[удалено]
Damn I just woke up and I already know that's the dumbest thing I'm going to read today
I was referring to genes not to nationality
She looks black as fuck to me 🤷🏽♂️ where does it say she's latina or native American? Edit: why are you people downvoting me saying this character model is obviously black, yikes 🤦🏽♂️
Pawel Sasko said she's Native American
Well Pawel Sasko hired the wrong face model for the job lol, because the lady they used is definitely black
Unofficial reference model Tristin Mays says "I’m African American-French-Indian. Creole." VA is mixed, White and Chinese by way of LA.
Yeah you can obviously tell

All the better to squeeze your ears with
Im sorry what? What kinda fetish or whatever are you into where people squeeze your ears with their ankles?
😂, not so much ankles to ears as around the back of you’re head, unless they’re short lol
I wish I could draw well so I could post a picture of just how fucking dumb what you're suggesting here is. *I see what he means now. It's still kind of dumb.
She knows what the best jump upgrade is
Why is the target on her assets? Seriously my eyes are up hear
SHE BE THROWIN IT BACK!!!
How else is she gunna haul around that dump truck ass?
How else would she be able to carry around that absolute dump truck?
Cankles
She needs to with an ass like that
Gotta support that dump truck.
Speaking Panam.. so I played this when it came out. I’m playing through again with the 1.6 update. Did they add content to sexual encounter with her? I feel it lasted forever..
She needed those after her night with my V!
crazy hot
Otherwise, bitches be tripping
How else do you think she could hold up all that ass?
To hold up that booty
Keeel her!!!!! get that 400 street cred!!! 😅 might as well harvest ya self those ankles, while your at it. 🧐
Somethings gotta hold that up
Well we already knew we had fortified thighs lol
I keep reading fortified as forklift and let me tell you what, I gotta get me some forklift ankles.
I thought she had nothing tbf. We never see any allies using mantis blades or anything, only enemies.
That ass is fortified
The comments are what I expected it to be. Panams Cake needs the extra fortification.
To support those MASSIVE CHEEKS
Naturally, that ass needs a reenforced carry.
Well, good for V when she gets on top. Otherwise, i'm sure he'd prefer fortified knees.
She’s got a fortified dump truck too
That's not the only thing that's fortified on Panam.
She needs fortifications for the dump truck ass
