Piercing attacks are worth their weight in gold in Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth. When the game’s version of difficulty increases is raising enemy stats, you need something to punch right through! In this iteration of the Aggregate, we’ve listed all the best piercing attacks in Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth.
This article will be going off the fact that all Digimon are available in both Cyber Sleuth and Hacker’s Memory if you buy the complete edition, which is available on Switch and Steam.
I also won’t be listing Digimon that are under Mega level unless they’re fringe cases like Lucemon. It’s very easy to get fully digivolved mons in these games, so you don’t have to stick with weaker digivolutions. Crusadermon NX has a piercing attack but I highly doubt you’ll sincerely use that Digimon.
There are also only two free types (Hawkmon and Stingmon) with piercing attacks, and realistically you won’t really be using either of those mons.

Piercing attacks that ignore DEF use the attacker’s Attack stat. Piercing attacks that ignore INT use the attacker’s INT stat. INT is both Special Attack and Special Defense, like in the first generation of Pokemon.
Don’t worry too much about the description of the attack when it comes to medium/strong/extra strong. It’s more important that you’re ignoring the target’s defense. For what it’s worth, the modifiers are as follows:
If you played vanilla Cyber Sleuth then these numbers might seem low. The modifiers were initially 1, 2, and 3 respectively but as you can imagine, it was quite OP and was nerfed.
This is the smallest category. There are only three Data types with piercing attacks. All three of them are INT-piercing.
Quite a bit more variety here.
It’s probably harder to find a good Virus Mega that doesn’t have a piercing attack, honestly.
Most of the Mega and Ultra level Digimon are useful, and you shouldn’t discount any of them just because they don’t have piercing attacks. If you read my previous articles, then you know that I think MarineAngemon is the best mon in the game for its sheer utility. Don’t forget to use Accel Boost to amp up your attacks!
