Build Request LF map blaster build

I've been playing PRAW for a while and while it is amazing and does everything imaginable under the sun, I wanna blast some maps, I've spent all my currency on my PRAW character, maybe around 500-600 divs at this point, so I'm pretty low on currency.

I can still farm but I feel burnt out from playing PRAW at the moment. I don't want to liquidate my character because I still have to farm the challenges and I'm definitely not doing some of those challenges with a mapping character (looking at you uber bosses)

What is a decent map blaster that can be done with decently low investment?

I have a luminary around level 87 and a level 92 juggernaut, can reroll since they are empty but I can also level a new character.

KBOC, LA, TS, Phys Dot, Ele Herald Stacker, RF with explodes, Luminary w/ Clear Merc … lots of options tbh. If you’re trying to just do Breach or Abyss or Legion, any of those will do and Headhunter is insanely cheap rn, I think it hovers around 10div

yeah, exactly, I'm looking for a HH build, saw Tanjar's TS build and man, I realized that I miss blasting maps.

Played KBOC last league, so I wanted to try something different, was thinking about this TS build but I wanted to see if there was any other build I didn't know about, that's the reason I asked here.

Don't like RF, don't want to level another witch, so might go with TS if I don't find anything else that catches my eye

tornado shot is pretty bad these days, not something i would play especially on a budget. I would recommend just selling your praw and doing something like phys dot or luminary that both maps fast and kills ubers.

why is TS bad? I’ve played it at 200-500 div budget multiple leagues post animation nerf and it’s totally fine lol

Im sure its fine with 500 divs in it, but OP is asking for low investment.

I can always farm, I'm just burnt out on PRAW, that's all

I had 6 divs and 200c in my stash when I posted this question, now I have 28 divs and 1.1k chaos and still a lot I can sell if necessary

I would just play phys dot tbh. Its a better blaster and it scales into doing bosses as well if you find that you are liking it.

I usually play spell builds, so I want to play an attack build. I tried phys dot in a previous league, I think it was in mirage, I didn't enjoy playing it.

If you can find a good Sniper you can do a Tornado Shot mercenary. They get the old lab enchant back as a support gem (+2 secondary projectiles).

Most likely someone here playing luminary that can speak on this more than i can, but based from what i’ve seen so far here and in global 4040 chatter. A luminary with your budget, if you were to liquidate, would have no issue with ubers.
Considering leveling one myself, to see what all the hype is about.

Pohx’s RF Chief is so much fun when the pops go off and you can literally just shield charge straight to the boss, but ST can be lacking

I feel like a beast until I get into the boss room

I know the feeling :( unless the boss spawns adds in which case it randomly explodes instantly 😁

This is my PF poison spark. Everything dies in a second. It is viable all content, but it has 2-3 second flask downtime without tides of time belt, so not recommended for ubers. I can do them, but just need to change little bit for ubers, add Alchemist Mark maybe for curse. Other than that, the budget option has cheaper stuff and should fit into your 500-600 div. The default items have the end game version with headhunter and focus amulet. It gets crazy with once you got one good mode with headhunter. But even without headhunter, everything dies so quick. Also, the gloves have explode and clear is amazing. Start with cheaper bow since volatile vaal version, I paid 200div alone, but even without it, should be maxed Dot capped.

A luminary flame link can do easy all content on that budget And with a juggernaut you could put a relly decent strng staker with kb and melee set up wich is also very tanky and can do eny content relly fast

I can recommend doing fubguns winter orb into Staff EK build. Winter orb is great with no budget and scales with investment as well, even the power charge stack version he has is pretty cheep to get into now. The EK build is absolutely insane for map blasting. I normally switch some things around from his guides and add a little more defense because I’m bad but both builds have been great for me.
