First divine drop! Also possible LS build advice?

Just started this game a month ago and having a blast! Did a random vaal temple and got my first div! Was really happy! Just wanted to share. My lightning spear damage is so awful even do t7 maps I get mangled by boss taking so long to die. Any gear suggestions I should be on the look for? Tried getting HH belt but no idea where to get annulment orbs .. I found a velemont propulsion today when I was xp leeching not sure if I can trade it for anything useful. Thanks for all help! LS damage is like 25k right now so must be going wrong somewhere, no rakiata and having hard time finding a good weapon

I'm not playing this league so I don't know about hh prices but the thing about how to get the annulment orb or any type of currency there's two way

One is to be lucky enough with or without rarity on gear for them to be dropped just the divine you got (which we call it raw divine I'll explain about raw drops further)

Second way is to buy it on currency exchange using npcs and the way it works is like 1 divine worth 350 ex and there's a ratio between them also there's a ratio between divine and chaos and annualment orbs

The thing is exalt orb lose their value over time of a league so you want to just exchange them with divine and chaos for not losing value

My suggestion for you is to follow a guide and exchange your divine with chaos or exalted orb and upgrade your items step by step and follow a farming strategy for farming divine

The way farming strategy works in my experience (I'm not the most efficient player and I'm just giving an example of what is easy to do for me) is trial of chaos you farm it again and again to get expensive stuff and sell them in currency exchange

Then you can make enough divines to buy your first hh

Annuls drop like divines do, have you checked the LS builds on Mobalytics by chance? This one for example goes pretty in-depth: https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/tanky-lightning-spear-amazon Not sure what class/ascendancy you're playing though!

You can trade for annulment orbs from Ange in your hideout (currency exchange). You can sell all of your unused spirit gems for divine orbs while you're at it and then start shopping for upgrades!

You can trade any currency for any other currency as an option in Ange's shop in your hideout. The rates fluctuate daily so you may or may not have enough for HH. I'd do a trade market search for a weapon that has higher DPS than yours through the trade filter. Get as much as you can afford.

Also make sure your skills gems are upgraded to the highest level you have enough mana to support. Then use gemcutters prisms (another currency) to get your skill quality up to 20%.

Look for rings with modifiers like 25% increased lightning damage, should be pretty cheap. Also amulets with critical hit chance and critical damage.

Keep exploring and farming and you will get there! Just remember that the biggest sources of income will be from selling things to other players, not raw currency drops on the ground. Good luck, exile!
