With the latest changes, anyone have a build for a casual player?
I'm just over 20k IL after the reset. Avernus/Juma type gear, Mountaineer weapon set, etc. This is an alt, so I'm not looking for a super-optimized build. Just something fun for playing through campaigns. With the reset, I need to rebuild and I'm curious what folks recommend.
Thanks!

If you want a build to play solo, i would recommend Vampiric Embrace, BoVa and anything else that gives dmg or if you feel confident, PoP. Use the Hellpact feat so your Lifespark can provide a little extra survivavility. And Eldirch Blast as at-will. This is my solo build and don't have much problems (we have less dps than before tho).
The meta it's just a guideline. And guidelines are boring.

I clearly had not had my coffee. I meant "Wizard" but I typed "Warlock."
I'm looking at my Wizard, which was reset with the latest mod. If anyone has a build for a casual 21k-ish IL wizard, I would appreciate it. PvE, for weeklies and going through campaigns.
Thanks!

I personally run a Control build for my wizard and have fun with it To increase the time of all my control effects I run all mastery insignias and if I want more I run the valindra set
For at wills I use Magic missile and arcane bolt
For encounters I run Ray of enfeeblement on tab for increased damage, Imprisonment for the control and increased damage, Entagling force to stun the enemies while doing a decent amount of damage, then I run disintegrate for a huge burst (normally fire off all other abilities before disintigrate)
I run Ice knife and Arcane empowerment for my dailies, I mainly use arcane empowerment so I can fire off abilities quickly, Ice knife is just there to do quick burst damage.
for features I run Orb of imposition and Arcane power field (Try to get 10 stacks of arcane mastery with a step above mastery before using daily for power field though)
for feats I run Spell twisting, Assailing Force, Chaos Magic, Nightmare Wizardry, and A step above mastery.
Companions really don't matter a whole lot for my build, I recommend getting energon for HP, but I will switch companions all the time, I like using slyblade kobold and Paranoid dellusion powers to increase damage against controlled enemies
This is no where near the BIS build but I have fun being able to keep my party from taking damage, making the healer, tank, and DPS's lives easier
