Something needs to be done about stat stacking

Quit for a few weeks to play poe1 hcssf fresh start (again)

Looking around for build ideas and its still just howa pillar builds.

It may be a little better if we have poeninja to extract ideas from other people ssetups but i suspect if we had poe ninja the convergence of either ci caster or howa/pillar is just too insane.

I really want to play poe2. but what do i play.

Played already and not rehashing old builds
sunder/stampede mace on sc to 91
Ci spark on sc to 92
ice strike monk on sc to 90 (oddly enough this character felt the most fun to play and i have no interest in playing again. It felt really broken after playing titan and lost its fun.)

Sunder/stampede titan on hcssf to 82
Auto attack titan (don't have herald of ice ring) i used vine arrow till it was nerfed to 83
Ci frost bomb titan to 82
shattering concoction pf to 81 in hcssf

I don't play minions and im not interested in another 4.5k life build that gets rekt by on death effects (maybe theyre fixed now idk.)

I really dont like casters but i will play one it it seems fun to do. Not rehashing ci spark again or spark in general.

The only thing i can think of might be worth it doing again, since i have 1 more widowhail is i can rerunn shattering concoction again but im really tired of dying early 80s to stuff i cant see.

Is anyone else feeling the struggle or is playing shit builds not going to be viable in hc in poe2.
