Looking for best 1-2 button build that isn’t Witch/Druid for one handed gamer

As title states, my friend is a big PoE enjoyer but due to some severe osteoarthritis he can really only game for prolonged periods of time with one hand.

He’s tried gaming mouses but none have really jived so he’s essentially a Left Middle and Right click enjoyer.

He’s played BM CoC and Oracle Plant this league so he’s looking for some recommendations on a third char.

Preferably something he can run temple on. This community has provided some cool feedback every season so far and looking forward to providing him some feedback!

I really love this build for Witchhunter that basically spams Armour Piercing Rounds and gets around with high move speed literally with only 2 skills. It is really scalable and I have changed a lot about it since I got to t15-16 maps to make it continue deleting screens. Super off meta and so freaking fun.

I would like to recommend my current witch hunter whirlwind build.
I can stand there forever and get beaten up by pinnacle bosses and not die:

the only required gear is the constricting command helm with the -5 to surrounded corruption roll. crafted one in 2 tries so it may not be a hard roll to get. The reason is that the build is ALWAYS out of mana, but i dont need any because i can whirlwind with only 1 enemy nearby (due to the defy gem), and i drop bells by paying with health using a gem as well. For a boost, once you get 7 charges on Mantra of Destruction by doing an attack you activate charged staff to consume the charges, which requires only a tiny amount of mana so it's readily available.

Does he have a foot pedal? That could make a huge difference for him.

You can also do an autohot key script to make mouse scroll up/down press buttons so could even be a 5 button build. Or use it for potions. Idk why this game doesn't have the option to assign commands to scrollwheel despite having an option to disable it's zoom

I play crit galvanic shard, stormblast WitchHunter with the +100 wp swap passive for thunderstorm shock debuff and curses. But in temple, utilizing the headhunter I only need to press right click for galvanic and occasionally left click for thunderstorm if I need more dmg. I was running smoothly solo juiced temple but then I looped it. Don’t think it can run as fast as CoC for party play tho.

whirling assault is pretty good for 1 button play. 787prada on youtube has an interesting smith WA build p

Permafrost witch hunter can be two button with fragmentation rounds. Couple good build guides out there. Pohx the POE 1 righteous fire legend has a SSF version and aer0 has another good guide

I decided to try stacking energy shield - at minimum level.

I got bored at this stage in the league and decided to spend many of my hard earned divines on a small project. Wouldn't it be funny to stack Energy shield for a min-level char? [https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1a027](https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1a027) Tabula rasa has relevant jewel mods noted on it in POB so the math actually works out since it doesn't seem to work properly in POB. second screenshot is with a lvl 29 discipline aura with 36% increased aura magnitude - I didn't wanna spend another several thousand divines on a support character, I just wanted to see how well it would work theoretically >3000 ES without aurabot is possible, however, its basically impossible in practice. As of now, there are \*18\* 2 socket uncorrupted crown of thorns left on trade - on average it takes \~11 to hit a 30% and then another 1 in 3 to get a 3 socket one. Hitting a double corrupt on said 3 socket would be better then my current one, but that's not plausible sadly. Same for the boots. Hitting a better double corrupt on the gloves and focus would likely be plausible, but I couldn't buy more bases from Finn. Grip of Kulemak 59% ES \*should\* be possible, but it already took me over 40 attempts to hit 57% so I think I'll just leave it as is. Belt I didn't find any other way besides the 25% corrupt to get ES without a level requirement - if anyone has any idea tell me. Amulet could sanctify for 19/19 but again, would require silly amounts of currency (each try is \~30 div as is with annoint + sanctify + quality). I \*think\* patient barrier should be best annoint, but correct me if I'm wrong. Total investment into this character so far is about 3000 divines, probably a bit more. further thoughts \- maximum technically possible is 3112 ES at level 2 unless I'm missing something important. POB [https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1a02a](https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1a02a) \- doubting this but: is it possible to get an ascendency at this low level by skipping straight to geonor with a helper? In which case it might be possible that xp penalties kicking it would allow me to ascend at lvl 2? This would allow +20% +20% (ascendency) +60% (jewel) ES, which would get me to 3218 ES (actual build) / 3732 ES (max technically possible) Did I miss anything?

Rakiata who?

I made an elemental crossbow varashta sorc this season as my starting build (goal was to exploit yoke of suffering's full potential, you can find poe ninja below, don't be fooled by the dmg tooltip, it kill ubers before they can move) and so since I was in the intel side of the tree I used my weapon swap to maximize exposure (with whispering ice) and curse magnitude. Here with some non-optimized gear I'm reaching a total of -338% res (that's -169% on bosses), meaning it's better than rakiata's. I use cursed ground support to apply the curse and icestorm (which comes with the staff) with prolonged duration and potent exposure to make the exposure last longer. This tech doesn't require much investment apart from your weapon swap and a few sockets at most so it can be plugged into many elemental builds. As it is now, it requires you to cast the spells with your weapon swap, so I use it mostly for bosses, but i might cast icestorm on bulky rares in juiced maps once in a while. If you have a skill dedicated for mapping, it'll propably better to use rakiata on it, and remove it or use another skill for bosses. Here's the poeninja: [https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/McZaatar-0907/character/Dendjala](https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/McZaatar-0907/character/Dendjala) I might make a build showcase if people are interested, it's a fun league starter build. With yoke and the electrocution node on the tree, enemies have 120% damage taken, more if they're cursed, on top of the giant res drop, plus you benefit from a lot of the "damage against enemies with ailments nodes" so that's why the tooltip is low (explosive grenades indicate 60k in game but they hit bosses for like 2M) at first I was playing with permafrost bolt with frost nexus + navira's fracture + fragmentation rounds, it was a fun combo and really strong for leveling but I couldn't scale navira's fracture damage in late game (I had command + minion nodes on my second weapon instead of the curse/exposure at the time) Hope this inspires some of you!
