Hi, I played PoE1 and played both party and solo cipher. It was really fun and now that I have PoE2 and we can multi-class, I want to combine my two favorite classes and try soloing the game again as a mindstalker! So if anyone could help me out and making a build to solo again (not necessarily PoTD but wouldn't mind something optimized). I personally do not care that it's not immersive or how the game is played, I honestly enjoy the game more as a solo player (I love feeling like a one man army!) So any help would be greatly appreciated!

If I was soloing with a cipher I think I would multiclass either with a tanky class ie paladin or fighter

or

multiclass with a class that can summon a "vessel" type spirit creature like a chanter can or a ghost heart then you can do stuff like use that level 7 cipher spell that does lots of damage to undead by targeting your summon, and you can use amplified wave as well.
