After your first main has been put to bed or lucky drop just sold - what has been your favorite build to play with the best gear you can give it through the campaign?
My favorite has albeen mercenary, with a few good items blasting is a breeze and fun to play…
Same feels with minions but they never feel truly OP for me

Thunderstorm + Zealots this league, destroy everything

Permafrost bolts but I didn't do anything fancy. I just like the skill.
Before I played games I had a diff idea of what a twink is.
Permafrost Bolts this league.

That two handed mace with 50% attack speed let me zoom through act 2 through the start of interlude. It was hard to go back to normal attack speed.
Tangletongue ls zon and permafrost merc with infinite reload crossbow are both insane
I'm not into twinks.
If you’re like me and Gigachad, you use Ancestral Cry because it’s hands down one of the best buffs in the game. You can socket Wither into Ancestral Cry and you will max your stacks of Wither just by walking next to something. I was looking for a fifth support to place in it and figured fix it, I’ll try Wither. Wow what a goo choice that was. Synergy is super good with Whirling Assault as you count as stepping while whirling so adds some big time extra hit to your spin as well.
0:46Pretty sure it is working, since the boss's HP drops in 2 quick burst, doedre's shotgun should be 1 tick and hexblast the 2nd tick. Unfortunately, lacks the oompf of casting hexblast yourself, but can't see anyway to recreate that. pob: [https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/19699](https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/19699)
0:221. Use Fire infused ball lightning to created high damage ignited ground ( being an Infernalist helps here ) 2. Spit Tornado to carrying ignited ground for 10s+ 3. Triggers comet from Ignited ground and delete stuff [https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/19191](https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/19191)
Trying to figure out how to get more DPS out of this build. Started with one of [Deadrabbit's builds ](https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/deadrabb1t/builds/0-4-plants-lich)then threw on a few types of gems and stuff on it. To be clear it happily clears T15/16 juiced maps (especially if I swap Ingenuity for Headhunter), and map bosses probably last maybe 8-12 seconds if even that, with Pinnacles last maybe a few seconds longer. It cannot do 6 man fully juice 77 room temples. I play it as your standard plant dps, throw out entangles, CoC procs thunderstorm, cast slappy vines for more dps. I'll also throw down Vulnerability to trigger Rupture the Flesh if wanted. Should I swap this back to Temp chains in Blasphemy since I have Uul Netol in Entangle (will need to find more spirit to make that work I think) Reap is a red herring, I've just got it gemmed for funsies.

0:14https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1a375 I recently decided to try BM CoC and threw this one together after browsing ninja for +150 rarity ones. I went with choir of the storms one since I already have a character with mana stacking and I'm not huge fan of having identical gear on different characters and builds. Damage seems to be underwhelming. I do mostly abyss farming, no temple and want to keep rarity at atleast +100. What are my options here to improve damage? Budget is somewhere around 1-2 mirrors so can't really fit in adorned and new jewels.
