POE2 Mercenary： Endgame Waystone Lightning Build - Ultimate Guide!

A newly found crossbow raised Galvanic Shards to 1,305 DPS, but accidental corruption blocks whetstones, extra runes, and orb upgrades. Meeting 95 strength and dexterity requirements forced attribute investment; he removed Giant Slayer for projectile, elemental, and critical bonuses. The Tier 2 Maya map proved easy: Galvanic Shards cleared packs, Plasma Blast one-shot a boss, and four maps remain.

The build’s trajectory favors overwhelming base damage, improving map reliability while gear restrictions remain.
