Letter of the Law

Learn how to find and neutralize Gaston Philips, the Cyberpsycho in Letter of the Law, with our Cyberpunk 2077 walkthrough. Includes tips on his weaknesses and strategy.

Alright, so you've got a new gig: take down a Cyberpsycho named Gaston Philips. He's hanging out in Wellsprings, and you can only get this mission after you've done 'The Rescue' main job. Don't worry, he's not too tough if you play it smart.

Where to Find Gaston:

You'll want to head northwest from the Parque Del Mar Fast Travel point. Look for a fenced-off area – that's where Gaston's lurking. The tricky part is that this area is littered with mines, so you'll need to be careful.

Neutralizing Gaston Philips:

When you get close to Gaston's spot, take it slow. Your main goal here is to disarm those mines as you make your way to the back of the area. Once you're in position, try to land a headshot on Gaston with your best weapon to kick things off. He's a Cyberpsycho, so he's tough, but you can use the environment to your advantage. Stick behind cover and only pop out to get a shot in when you can. A really good trick is to lure him around and then shoot any explosives you see nearby – they'll deal a ton of damage.

Strategy & Tips:

• Disarm Mines: Seriously, don't skip this. Stepping on a mine will hurt you bad and might even alert Gaston before you're ready.
• Use Cover: Gaston will shoot back, so always be near something you can hide behind.
• Explosive Barrels: Keep an eye out for red explosive barrels or other environmental hazards you can detonate to hurt Gaston.
• Quickhacks: If you've got 'em, use 'em. A 'Weapon Malfunction' quickhack can give you a window to deal damage without him shooting back.
• Heal Up: If Gaston's getting the best of you and your health is low, don't be a hero. Back out of the area, heal up, and then re-engage. Getting a headshot when he's not looking is a great way to start the fight again.

Once Gaston's down, check the messages on his computer and then send a message to Regina. That'll wrap up the job.
