Hey everyone! I’m currently level 93 playing a Blind Prophet with a lightning strike setup, but I’m feeling like trying something fresh before this league ends. I heard using a fishing rod could be interesting—does anyone have a good build suggestion using that? If not, I’m open to any fun, blasty builds that can handle endgame content like Exile maps. I’m a casual player, so having a leveling guide or at least a budget Path of Building would be super helpful. Also, I just found an Apothecary card, so I have about 50 raw divs and a Headhunter belt to work with. Appreciate any recommendations!

Honestly, I really enjoyed throwing together a Tornado Shot mines build this league. It’s super fun to watch the chaos unfold and works well for endgame content. If you want something different from your current setup, definitely give it a try!
A cool idea could be to try a Blade Vortex (BV) build that works with Headhunter for some explosive plays. Grab a Rathpith Globe and Obliteration for great synergy: Rathpith boosts crit damage and chance, Obliteration converts energy shield into life on your ascendancy, which is super tanky.
For a Surfcaster-type setup, pairing Font of Thunder and Divine Flesh makes your resistances easier to manage, focusing on lightning and chaos res. Use Purity of Lightning and a topaz flask to maintain lightning res, and a Chaos Resistance Light of Meaning for about 9-12 divs to boost your survivability. Some speedy boots like Elevated Tailwind Onslaught will get you moving fast. Replica Nebula can add cold and fire damage without needing max resistances, and Lightning Trap supported by gloves that increase cast speed can preload damage nicely. Your crit chance should cap easily with the right ascendancy nodes. You can expect to hit millions in DPS with this.
The only tricky part is figuring out the regen and life recovery, but it’s manageable with the right gear.
If you want some extra currency to play with, I actually finished my Phrecia build and don’t plan to use it anymore. Happy to hook you up with some gear or divs if you want to just jump in with a strong start!
You might want to check out a Volcanic Fissure setup with a snaking ancestral commander build. It’s got some solid damage and fun gameplay. Worth a look if you want something a bit different and powerful!
Thanks, I’ll definitely look into that! I’m just off to sleep now but will check back for more ideas later.
Regarding your question about minions, the Mage’s Fanning Arrows (MFA) and King of the Court (KBoC) support gems are great, but you’ll want to consider how they fit your damage and playstyle goals. With about 50 divs, you should be able to farm T16 maps fairly comfortably, especially if you focus on strongbox farming since you don’t have the exile idols yet.
That sounds amazing, but I’m not really sure how to get in touch. I’m pretty new to this forum stuff.
