📋 About This Mod
Not a range buff. Just a little common sense applied to melee range.
Rebalances melee attack ranges in Cyberpunk 2077 by assigning practical weapon reach based on size, fixing odd vanilla values like the Baton's 4.0 range vs Sledgehammer's 2.0. Keeps Fists and Katana as vanilla anchors and adjusts Gorilla Arms, Knife, Axe, Machete, Chainsword, and Baton to new values. For melee players who find Mantis Blades and Sledgehammer frustratingly short.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 21 endorsements and 417 downloads, updated August 2026.
- Corrects a real melee annoyance — Mantis Blades and Sledgehammer no longer have same reach as a Tomahawk.
- Numeric changes are modest and anchored to vanilla Fists/Katana, so it won't feel like a total combat overhaul.
⚠️ Cons
- No install instructions or dependency info provided by the author.
- Description cuts off after 'One-Hand Blade' — full list of affected weapons unclear.
- Doesn't state which Cyberpunk 2077 version it's built for, so may need testing after game updates.
For Cyberpunk 2077 melee builds who are bothered by inconsistent reach — especially Mantis Blades and Sledgehammer users. For players who want a lore-friendly rebalance without overhauling combat mechanics. Skip if you're fine with vanilla weapon ranges or prefer more radical gameplay mods.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Load the mod after any other combat or weapon tweaks in your mod manager to ensure its range values win conflicts.
- Test in-game with Baton vs Sledgehammer side by side to confirm the new ranges feel right before committing to a long playthrough.
- If you use REDmod, check if the mod is packed for REDmod or legacy archives — otherwise place manually in the game's mod folder.
