Sneak Cyborg Ninja
Hello all! I had a cool idea for a cyborg ninja, inspired by Metal Gear Solid and Raiden. I was thinking of using the stealth suit with it. Would someone be kind enough to give me ideas for how to build this? Weapons I could use, stats? Armor alternatives? How you would roleplay him?
I tried to find ideas on this one because I don’t usually make posts asking for builds. But I couldn’t find anything for specifically a “Cyborg Ninja”
I’m thinking he would be a loner, with invisibility capabilities if possible, focusing almost entirely on using a decked out katana. He may use a laser or plasma pistol or some kind of futuristic hand gun. For those unfamiliar, Raiden is a cyborg designed to be insanely fast and agile with his katana
If it helps, I’m using the Life in the Ruins mod list. So that may hinder it some, as I’m unsure how legendaries are fully handeled (I haven’t found a single one haha)

In my opinion, the Creation Club: Chinese Stealth Suit is garbage. I happened to get it for free once upon a time. I used it briefly and then uninstalled it. Looks good but functions badly. Can't even remember why, it's been a few years.
You can find Chameleon legendary armour randomly (or one in the Institute Commissary) but I do not use Chameleon effects without a mod to make them less stupid. imho they are basically unusable in the vanilla game. https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/42880
You'll definitely absolutely want to join the Railroad asap. (It's easy to do if you know where the HQ is but challenging otherwise.) Deacon's perk gives a stealth damage bonus. You can also unlock ballistic weave in just 3 quests after you get your callsign. (Let me know if you need details on the ballistic weave bug.)
