Overview

Daniel showcases a Path of Exile 2 mercenary build focused on Plasma Blast, utilizing Scattershot to loose three projectiles along with elemental enhancements and terrain ricochets.

Support elements for the build incorporate Scattershot, Ricochet, Primal Armament, defensive flash grenades, health passives, and Inevitable Critical against bosses.
