Hi!
I have been struggling to choose a build for my main character for a week now.
I want a melee build, tanky enough for the frontline, with good single target damage and AoE.
This is my first playthrough, so the difficulty level is hard and I will be playing with story companions.
I completed the first part of POE and at the end of the game, the fights became routine and it was very lazy to do control and micromanagement. So I wanted to have a build that would not require strong pre-buffs and a lot of control before each fight at the end of the game. I am not against control in strong battles or boss fights, but I do not want to waste time on it in garbage fights.
