Cyberpunk 2077’s Phantom Liberty DLC introduces a variety of new choices at the end of its gripping story. These choices not only affect the narrative but also determine the powerful loot you can acquire. If you’re looking to get the best gear, you’ll need to decide carefully—or make a manual save so you can experience both endings. This guide covers all the Iconic weapons and cyberware you can obtain in the final missions, including their requirements and where to find them.

Key Loot from the Final Missions

In total, there are nine Iconic weapons and cyberware available through the last missions of Phantom Liberty. Some items require specific stat levels to obtain, while others are tied to your choices. The key Iconics include:

  • If you side with Songbird:
    • Peria
    • Murphy’s Law
    • Quantum Tuner
    • Manella
  • If you side with Reed:
    • Wild Dog
    • Bald Eagle
    • Fang
    • Crowbar
    • Manella
    • Aras
    • Corrupted Militech Canto Mk.6 Cyberware

Major Decision: Siding with Songbird or Reed

The critical choice occurs in the mission Firestarter. At this point, you must decide whether to help Songbird escape or assist Reed in capturing her. Your choice determines which Iconic items you’ll be able to obtain.

Siding with Reed – The Heavy Combat Path

Choosing to help Reed gives you access to combat-oriented gear, including several Iconic weapons and cyberware. Here’s what you need to do:

  1. Kill Hansen – This rewards you with three powerful Iconic weapons:
    • Wild Dog (SMG)
    • Bald Eagle (Handgun)
    • Fang (Blade)
  2. Technical Ability & Body Stat Requirements:
    • To obtain the Aras Iconic blueprint, you must have Technical Ability Level 20.
    • To unlock the Crowbar, you need Body Level 20 to force open the gate where it’s hidden.
    • To get the Corrupted Militech Canto Mk.6 Cyberware, you’ll need Intelligence Level 15.
  3. Optional Choices:
    • Calling Mr. Hands and paying 15,000 eddies allows you to access a Netrunner who can provide useful information.
    • When you reach the engineering room, locate the maintenance area, where you can unlock the Arasblueprint if you have the required stats.
  4. Final Step:
    • After the mission, you’ll receive the Behavioral System Component from a disabled robot. This is crucial for crafting one of the two cyberware blueprints (you must choose between Aras or Canto Mk.6).
    • Later, after a few in-game days, you’ll receive a message from an unknown sender, starting the Corrosionmission, where you can complete the cyberware crafting process.

Siding with Songbird – The Stealth and Tech-Focused Path

If you choose to assist Songbird instead of Reed, the loot you receive shifts towards stealth and tech enhancementsrather than raw combat power.

  1. Obtaining Songbird’s Exclusive Iconics:
    • Murphy’s Law (Iconic weapon) is looted from Murphy—make sure to kill him during the mission to claim it.
    • Peria (Reed’s pistol) is only available if you follow through with helping Songbird until the very end and kill Reed.
    • Quantum Tuner (Iconic cyberware) is unlocked a few in-game days after completing the mission. You’ll receive a message leading to the quest From Her to Eternity, where you can collect it from a special location.
  2. Final Steps & Hidden Iconics:
    • After Songbird is sent off in a rocket, skip time for a few in-game days to trigger a mysterious text message leading to From Her to Eternity.
    • Travel to the marked location and scan the area near the sofa to find the Quantum Tuner—a powerful cyberware enhancement.

Unlocking the Manella Iconic Pistol – Available on Both Paths

Regardless of whether you side with Reed or Songbird, you can obtain the Manella Iconic pistol through the Run This Town mission, which becomes available after the credits roll.

  1. Mr. Hands will contact you once the story is completed, offering you the mission.
  2. Meet him at the Heavy Hearts Club and go through the dialogue.
  3. He rewards you with the Manella Iconic Pistol.

Best Strategy: Getting Both Paths’ Loot

Since each path offers exclusive Iconic items, the best way to experience both is to create a manual save before choosing between Reed and Songbird. This way, you can complete one playthrough, reload your save, and try the other path without starting a new game.

For items requiring high stat levels (like ArasCrowbar, or Canto Mk.6), consider respeccing your character before making your final choices if you don’t meet the requirements.

Final Thoughts

The Phantom Liberty DLC adds a wealth of high-end gear to Cyberpunk 2077, but acquiring the best loot requires strategic choices. Whether you prefer Reed’s combat-heavy path or Songbird’s stealth and tech-focused rewards, this guide ensures you don’t miss any of the game’s most valuable Iconics.
