Path of Exile 2 Mercenary Fire Explosive Shot： AoE Leveling Mastery Build Guide!

Introduces a Mercenary Explosive Shot fire build using Scattershot, Heft, Fire Infusion, Oil Grenade, and grenade supports; DPS reaches 3,866. A boss exhausts potions, traps him, and kills him after Warrior fire, elemental, projectile, and crossbow passives enable one-shot clearing. Death costs a Tier 2 waystone, loot, XP, and gold; a Divine Orb lowers crossbow damage by roughly 300 DPS.

Explosive damage continues to coexist with fragile survival, costly mistakes, and growing resentment toward the game’s penalties.
