Overview
Daniel presented a Path of Exile 2 Monk lightning leveling build utilizing the ranged area-of-effect skill Storm Wave, linked with Elemental Focus and Primal Armament support gems to boost elemental damage.
Daniel detailed equipment such as a physical and lightning Quarterstave, an orange helm, and a Blackheart iron ring, alongside passive tree investments targeting critical, elemental, and power charge bonuses while noting alternative melee skills carry higher survival risks.
The build employs a backpedaling playstyle to funnel enemy packs into narrow spaces while managing mana with a strong flask, and Daniel collected a spirit gem during the combat showcase.
Daniel promoted aoe2.com with code EXPERT for a 3% discount on Path of Exile 2 currency and orbs before starting the guide.
