In this guide for Cyberpunk 2077, we’ll explore the Ghost Wire build, centered around the Monowire cyberware, designed for players who enjoy a mix of stealth and melee combat. This versatile build allows you to eliminate enemies from a distance while maintaining the element of surprise. Let’s break down the attributes, perks, and equipment needed to unleash the full potential of the Ghost Wire build.</p>

Ghost Wire Attributes</h3>

Focus on Cool and Body attributes, with a supplementary investment in Intelligence. Cool enhances Monowire damage, stealth damage, and grants access to Stealth and Cold Blood perks. Body increases melee damage, health, and stamina while unlocking Athletics, Annihilation, and Street Brawler perks. Intelligence offers additional Quickhacking abilities and enables stronger cyberware that increases critical hit chance and damage.</p>

Ghost Wire Perks</h3>

Divide your perks into the following categories: Stealth, Cold Blood, Street Brawler, Annihilation, and Athletics. Stealth perks include Crouching Tiger, Strike From The Shadows, Assassin, Ghost, and Ninjutsu. For Cold Blood perks, focus on Cold Blood, Blood Brawl, Predator, Critical Condition, Coldest Blood, Cold and Calculating, Coolagulant, Unbreakable, and Merciless. Enhance your Street Brawler skills with Flurry, Dazed, Efficient Blows, Opportune Strike, and Frenzy. Annihilation perks should include Dead Center, Momentum Shift, and Skeet Shooter. Lastly, acquire Invincible and Steel and Chrome perks in the Athletics category.</p>

Ghost Wire Equipment</h3> Weapons</h4>

The Monowire cyberware serves as the primary weapon, dealing blunt damage with long-range capabilities. Obtain a Legendary Monowire from a Ripperdoc or find one in Night City. Additionally, enhance the Monowire’s effectiveness with mods such as Battery and the Sensory Amplifier.</p>

Armor</h4>

Focus on armor bonuses that increase Crit Chance or Crit Damage while maintaining good armor defense. Some armor pieces can also be modded for extra effects.</p>

Cyberware</h4>

Utilize cyberware like Microvibration Generator and Dense Marrow to boost melee damage. Enhance this build with Visual Cortex Support, increasing critical damage from stealth. Other useful cyberware includes Weakspot Detection, Threat Detector, and Synaptic Accelerator.</p>

Final Tips</h3>

Be prepared to adapt to the Monowire’s unique hitboxes. Keep a balance between stealth and open melee combat. Utilize the Big Sleep Daemon to avoid detection and equip the Ping Quickhack to track enemies. Players can prioritize stealth by investing more in Cool attributes, or focus on melee combat by enhancing Body attributes.</p>
