Endgame Ready： PoE2 Mercenary Lightning Build - Level Up Fast!

Mercenary lightning build reaches 714 Galvanic Shards DPS, 14.75% critical chance, and 200% critical damage using three core gems. At level 70, he redirects points toward elemental, projectile, crossbow, two-handed, lightning, and critical bonuses; a ring raises damage. Endgame maps are large, swarm-heavy, and lost on death; he completes a tier 1+ map but finds no meaningful reward.

Build optimization succeeds, but repetitive isolation and punishing failure produce sharp dissatisfaction.
