Introduction to the Ghost Build
Welcome to the Ghost Build Guide, focused on infinite scaling through Dodge and Ghost Axe stacking.
This build revolves around reaching very high Dodge early, then scaling Attack Speed and HP Regen, and finally transitioning into high HP for survivability. With Ghost’s mechanics, the build becomes extremely consistent and can scale indefinitely.

Conclusion
The Ghost Axe build is one of the simplest and most reliable strategies in Brotato.

With near-max Dodge and consistent scaling, elites and bosses become trivial, making this build one of the easiest paths to victory.
