Summary

He presents a Galvanic Shards lightning Mercenary build with Lightning Infusion, Heft, Super Critical, and Primal Armament for endgame maps. Galvanic Shards reaches 876 DPS, then 1,177 with shock-related bonuses; nine bolts and Plasma Blast around 8,000 DPS support clearing. He farms loot, raises gold from 58,000 to 66,000, but repeated deaths leave him stuck at level 73, losing XP.

Insight

Powerful clearing remains undermined by glass-cannon fragility, XP loss, and escalating frustration.
