Use attack speed, evasion, and armour in your jewels. Also lots of elemental/projectile/crossbow damage. Yes this is me going over an update of the same build, but I think I'm pretty much done with it unless I wanna chuck infinite currency at it to make it look better than it is.

Heya, I could not see what amulet you have, as your gear does not show on mobylitics
i put persistence on poison grenade so i don't need to spam grenades for armour break . I use the balista to twice my damage with rage aura. my ballista regen my mana/health, maim and knock back enemies.
Is this still viable?
i play a version of this build, as PF ranger.
rapid shot, + Herald of Ash, Herald of Ice, Herald of Thunder,
you then run the unique helm, Three dragon mask, which mixes up all the elements, and suddenly, anything rapid fire hits, it shocks/chills/ignites, which then triggers the heralds, for chain reaction clearing. 1 mob dies, and the entire pack explodes, which in turn explodes more mobs, etc etc.
then i use cast on shock, since rapid fire shocks everything, it has comet + voltaic mark.
requires a decent spirit investment + hybrid stats, int.str.dex need to be about the same. But its worth 😀
i find ripwire balista usefull, for distracting mobs also.
Hey man great build, is there a website for quick reference to make this build?
Do you have any suggestions for how to build a Gemling Legionnaire? I’m a casual player. I love my merc, but I don’t have the time to start a new character and spec Witch Hunter. I like this build though because it’s interesting.
Also, have you considered running Scattershot on Rapid Shot? Maybe in place of Fork. It would basically triple the size of the clip/magazine.
Not like poe1 huh? Poe2 build playing poe2? Well, my poe1 juggernaut accuracy stacker with barrage bow frenzy begs to differ. It's pretty much the same gameplay. Without the movement while shooting ofc 😛
I'm doing this build with a Pathfinder for the 30% move speed when shooting, combined with Mobility support you don't lose much move speed with Rapid Shot.
Thanks for the great video. But I recommend you to watch other people's guide videos. Since there is no organized external page, we have to get information only from the video, and it is too messy. It shows this gem, then another motion, then another, and it is not well organized.
How does it work with Breach/Rituals?
By the way, I think that they could make a connection between oil grenades and rapid fire to those grenades after we reach the heat. Even visually they are burning after the shot so it could continue consequences. Burning oil would have better connections with rapid fire as well.
Man it's so nice look! Thanks for this)
What do y think about this build on dedye ascended?
i played this build too. but I'm Gemling .
This is a great build so happy to see a actual build and not just epilepsy simulator
Good job bro this is the best mercenary build I've seen that didn't went for gemling and HOWA.
Plss maxroll ..
seen a similar build but he playd pathfinder for the Running Assault node
Very cool build Shinshin! I've always wondered how to buikd on Rapid Shot's strengths. Glad you gave it a shot. Fork and Chain off walls seems like a pretty solid idea even for single target.
Just as a small addendum, I'm fairly sure due to the way conversion works in poe 2 that Heft won't interact with gain as extra fire damage. Order would probably be:
-take basic physical damage
-convert some of the base physical damage to base fire (the 60% from the gem itself)
-gain extra fire based on your base damage
-heft is applied only to the remaining physical damage (40% non-converted)
-other increases and multipliers are applied
I'm open to being corrected here though.
Hey Hash! Great video, i actually was trying to do something like this running through the campaign (this kind of build was my plan before release), sadly it didn't work and i eventually switch to galvanic (like 80% of mercs lol). Good to see that it actually can work and work pretty effectively! Nice work man!
Consider corrosive for gas grenades to break armor?
Great Video. Will try this when I start my Merc 😀
bro's playing top down Remnant
Hey, just came across your guide as this is my first character and i happened to be playing this same build (with slightly different pathing as I was going for more evasion rather than hybrid). Something that wasn't clear to me in the video is how to get Sorcery ward? I tried searching for it from my skills but i can't seem to find it. May you help me with this?
Seems like a deadeye would fare well with this build
Wouldnt this scale much better on gemling or titan? Great info!
much good
Seems to slow for some mobs that surround you
1:22 – well said, I wish the devs figure out what type of game they want to have here. Yea as the saying goes "comparison is the killer of joy" but it really is hard to play PoE2 when PoE1 type of gamestyle is so easy to access in this game
Dakka? Moar dakka
oh damn didnt know you played PoE , glad you're liking the game have a nice one.
I subbed because youve been doing what Ive been doing, Trying to Play POE2 and not turning into POE 1, I just Wish GGG had the game tuned for POE2…………Nice build because I am running a Merc playing with stat stacking but not trying to fall back into quarterstaff monk abilities but use the actual crossbow!
With that speed, a good old knockback on hit ^^
I would like this kind of builds being actually good, but the difference between this and meta builds is huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge
Fun to see you on poe2 man. Great videos, I enjoy them a lot
Can i do it with a Gemling Legionare?
Thanks for sharing uzi crossbow build to the community!
Why does the thumbnail say the only build Titans play but this is a Mern video
I gathered %40.0 attack speed, do you think we should gather projectile speed also? Since the game showed us rapid shot, i want to do rapid fire build and it seems there are no build for this but basic enhancements.
Nice an actual build for the actual video game that doesn't treat itself like a speedbump to a miserable experience.
i will try your build once i have enough gold to respec…. right now im addicted to gamba with alva
I’m really enjoying my merc. I’ve been using galve shards/shockburst lately but I’m excited to try your build out lol
These full auto builds make the game look so similar to The Ascent. Which is not a bad thing at all.
I remember you would constantly complain about sorcery ward and it reducing your defensive stats, so why even go for it at all? You are spending 4 ascendancy points on it, you could go for something else?
