📋 About This Mod

Kanshou & Bakuya

Two iconic shotguns built for weapon-swapping combat.

Kanshou and Bakuya are a paired set of iconic Testera shotguns designed to be used together. Drawing either weapon completely refills its magazine, while weapon swapping is 50% faster. In exchange, both weapons reload 30% slower.

HOW THEY WORK

Shots from Kanshou secretly mark enemies with Kanshou's Mark. Shooting an enemy carrying that mark with Bakuya deals double damage.

Bakuya applies its own hidden mark in the same way, allowing Kanshou to deal double damage against that target. Mark your prey, switch weapons, and keep alternating for maximum effect.

CET COMMANDS

Open the Cyber Engine Tweaks console and enter:

Game. AddToInventory("Items. Preset_Testera_Ivory", 1)

Game. AddToInventory("Items. Preset_Testera_Ebony", 1)

WHERE TO FIND THEM

The pair can also be found together in an weapon case near the most unusual twins in Night City.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Use the CET console command Game.AddToInventory("Items.Preset_Testera_Ivory", 1) to add Kanshou, and the Ebony variant for Bakuya.
  • The weapon case is near the twins in Kabuki; head to the Beat on the Brat: Kabuki starting area and look around.
  • Because reload is 30% slower, use cover or quick melee to interrupt reloads if you get caught.
