Once you\u2019ve done that, get Body to 9, and then Tech to 9 as well. Once those are both 9, pump body to 15, Int to 20, and Tech to 15. Finally, max Body &amp; Tech (Body first).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For skills, things are going to be really hard early on if you\u2019re playing on Hard: As I noted the early game won\u2019t use the monowire much, so you\u2019re basically going to be playing a hacker build instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the Intelligence tree, grab everything on the left &amp; middle minus \u201cWarning: Explosion Hazard\u201d, \u201cBlood Daemon\u201d, and \u201cShadowrunner\u201d. Early on focus on the queue and the main parts of the trees; Overclock isn\u2019t going to be super useful until the later game when you\u2019re rocking a Tier 5 cyberdeck. Also, don\u2019t forget Car Hacking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Body, grab everything down the middle, focusing on the center part of the tree<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Tech, again grab everything in the middle (minus \u201cAmbidextrous\u201d and \u201cBuilt Different\u201d). You\u2019ll also want to grab everything on the left related to health items &amp; health item regen. Skip the grenade-exclusive stuff. Be sure to get the second level of Health Freak ASAP!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For relic perks (this absolutely requires Phantom Liberty), grab Jailbreak &amp; Data Tunneling first, and Emergency Cloaking second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Otherwise, feel free to grab some of the base stuff in Reflexes &amp; Cool as you have perks available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alright, now we come into the critical portion: Cyberware.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class='code-block code-block-2' style='margin: 8px 0; clear: both;'>\n<div id=\"gg_ads_midLeaderboard2\" class=\"gg_ads__adSpot gg_ads__adSpot--midLeaderboard\">\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-8114869302769879\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-8114869302769879\" data-ad-slot=\"6808095089\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 Monowire Build: Cyberware &amp; Equipment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2 biggest pieces of this build is your cyberdeck and your monowire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the cyberdeck, you\u2019re going to want to use the Tetatronic Rippler: This works really well with this monowire build, and also gives you some general \u2018runner abilities as well. You want to get this to Tier 5 ASAP: If you\u2019re focused you can get it there by level 30, but that will require some grinding (I personally did a lot of NCPD and carjacking gigs) to get the parts necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the monowire, ordinarily I\u2019d say use whatever you like, but in this case I\u2019d suggest the Thermal variant: It\u2019s synergy with higher-tiers of Contagion is fantastic, and you\u2019ll definitely be making use of Contagion when encountering large groups of enemies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, with Phantom Liberty you\u2019ll be loading up the Cripple Movement quickhack in your monowire; Because of this you\u2019ll want to ensure you get this to tier 5 ASAP as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next most critical cyberware is going to be the Blood Pump &amp; Biomonitor under the Circulatory system; This lets you focus on dealing damage, and gets you the most bang for your buck out of your healing (which you\u2019ll be doing a lot of). Heal-On-Kill is also good here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Frontal Cortex, Mechatronic Core and Ex-Disk are must-haves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the face, grab whatever Kiroshis you like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under Skeleton, you MUST have Dense Marrow and Feen-X. After that, use whatever you can to boost armor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Hands, a Smart Link is a good idea. I carry a smart weapon as a backup for vehicle stuff, and the bonuses for netrunners in general is never a bad thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the Nervous System, Synaptic Accelerator and Reflex Tuner are extremely useful to help slow the pace of combat down. NeoFiber is also good later on to help mitigate damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Integumentary systems, Optical Camo and Subdermal armor are good, but in the late game you may want to pop in the iconic Chitin instead of Subdermal Armor. Also, grab Painducer to help increase survivability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For legs, double jump is king. Grab Reinforced Tendons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s an important note: Avoid going overboard with Edgerunner. You will need your health, so do NOT max out your cyberware if it means maxing out Edgerunner itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s talk about playstyle, finally.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class='code-block code-block-3' style='margin: 8px 0; clear: both;'>\n<div id=\"gg_ads_midLeaderboard3\" class=\"gg_ads__adSpot gg_ads__adSpot--midLeaderboard\">\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-8114869302769879\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-8114869302769879\" data-ad-slot=\"4457812656\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 Monowire Build: Playstyle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This build is going to be really challenging at higher difficulties in the early game; Honestly, I wouldn\u2019t even suggest USING the monowire until around level 20 (by this time you should have your Monowire &amp; Cyberdeck up to Tier 3).. So start with the Phantom Liberty start to give you a leg up, but don\u2019t actually start Phantom Liberty until you\u2019re in your 20s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just stick with hacking and taking things slow. Once you are able to deliver quickhacks via your monowire, you\u2019ll be able to start using it effectively, but don\u2019t neglect quickhacking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, quickhacking is also how you\u2019ll slow things down and find your next target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Quickhacks to keep up are Contagion (once you\u2019ve got Tier 4), Synapse Burnout, Reboot Optics, Cyberware Malfunction, Short Circuit, Weapon Glitch, Memory Wipe; Suicide can also be useful to take foes out of the fight easily since you\u2019ll be doing lots of melee finishers to drop it\u2019s cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the start of combat, drop Cyberware Malfunction on everybody, and at Tier 4 of Contagion, drop that on a couple folks as well if there\u2019s more than a handful of foes. For harder enemies, drop as many Cyberware Malfunctions as possible at the start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch your health: You\u2019ll burn through charges of your blood pump fast in intense firefights, so don\u2019t hesitate to back out and trigger your optical camo to reset things and take a breather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, when possible make sure to mark everybody to get them highlighted; Things will be moving fast without Sandevistan, so keeping track of enemies without getting overwhelmed is a problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For bosses &amp; cyberpsychos, this build is just.. A dream. I basically would stun-lock foes consistently and took nearly every cyberpsycho without ever taking a hit thanks to uploading Cripple Movement via the monowire; For foes with guns I\u2019d also toss in Weapon Glitch on top of my Cyberware Malfunction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t neglect your finisher; you\u2019re invincible while it executes, giving you a bit of a breather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve got your cyberdeck to tier 5 (I was able to do this at about level 30), you\u2019ll be using Overclock as a general boost, rather than a way to drop additional hacks when you run out of RAM.. In fact, you want to avoid exceeding your actual RAM just to save that health for when it matters. Overclock is used to do a quick small extra heal and upload Reboot Optics + Weapon Glitch to nearby foes. Your Feen-X will help ensure you can keep dropping Cyberware Malfunction\/Weapon Glitch\/Reboot Optics on foes as-needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the biggest benefits of the monowire is also its biggest negative: It\u2019s great for tackling groups as it can hit multiple foes at the same time, but in situations where there are civilians around.. You\u2019re going to end up with the cops looking for you &#8211; guaranteed &#8211; more than once just because you\u2019re not able to prevent yourself from killing them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unlike other melee options in Cyberpunk 2077, the monowire doesn\u2019t have a bunch of perks to give it strength and usefulness in the early game; Instead, there are only a handful of perks that impact it, and cyberware synergy is also practically non-existent.
