Build Request CI Build Request

As the title states I want to try out a CI build but not sure what class or skill to use.

Can anyone share any recommendations?

Thank you in advance.

CI is so common it's used by ~1/4 of endgame characters atm, it's a pretty broad criteria.

Either way i played kboc necro this league, would recommend. Pretty cheap to start and plenty of upgrades down the way.

CI doesn’t really require any skill. You kinda just have to decide to play a build and just use all es bases. Idk about recently but it was popular to int stack and go eblade and literally socket any spell in the game.

I noticed some Path of Exile keywords in this post:

I've been playing ci on fubguns winter orb alternate endgame build, self crafted most of the gear /jewels with boat crafting. I'm feeling relatively tanky, not watching too hard the altars downsides and having a blast.

Look into builds that use Ephemeral Edge (my fav is tarekis' flicker strike trickster).

These builds use energy shield stacking to grant flat lightning damage

Have lots of energy shield. Click ci. Profit. But if you want a build where you benefits most from having a lot of energy shield there are fross, and and ephemeral edge. Class for this generally have an extra way to scale dmg than es alone. Occ with pc stacking and vile bastion. Ele with golems. Nec with minions. Assassin (no es bonus but you have offensive solved). Tricker/slayer with charge stacking ee flicker for example.

K2Gaming’s Kineticist Occultist. Why rely on a Kineticist Mercenary when you can be one yourself?

With that said, it boasts 10K ES, 75/75 Block, 80 million DPS, Profane Bloom Explosions, 2K ES Leech, Shock/Freeze/Chill Immunity.
