Probably a bad idea, but, Penance Brand Raider maybe?

PoB: https://pastebin.com/AMH2jmE1

Why Raider?

• Haven't played her before. 20% Exposure. Great avoidance defenses including high evasion (with damage reduction from Wind Dancer), Dodge capping is doable, move speed for mechanics dodging, Phasing + Ailment Immunity, what's not to love?

Why Brands (why Penance)?

• Because I love the play style. I've played 3/5 Brands with Penance and Arcanist left to go. I want to do cold conversion because then I can hopefully leverage Taste of Hate, one of my favorite flasks in the game for its damage and survivability boosts. Also chill is pretty powerful for someone who has slow reaction times and poor hand-eye coordination.

Why Raider + Brands?

• Stacking Onslaught effect gives a nice chunk of base cast speed for brands (68%), especially useful for Penance which needs around 190%+ increased cast speed to hit the sweet spot of 19-20 energy stacks with Runebinder. Obligatory calculations spreadsheet.

Specific Notes:

• This is a barebones skeleton. I'll assume I can fill in resists and attributes later.
• I probably went overboard on the defenses, but I am not used evasion/dodge builds. I am used to taking hits on the chin. Ideally I'd like to be dodge capped, but probably have to settle for 60%+
• I am looking for help scaling the damage on the tree and with gems before I turn to gear. I want a solid foundation. Gear gets expensive fast and the sky is the limit, so I don't want to assume I'll be able to afford some combination of mods.
• Hitting 19/20 stacks atm according to the spreadsheet for Penance Brand linked above
• Exceptions to the 'no-gear scaling': Uniques, reasonable Watcher's Eye/Jewels, Clusters are okay to build around
• Please no, "Why don't you just play Assassin?" comments. I am aware of the meta and want to work with other players who enjoy exploring the off-meta

Thanks in advance everyone. Stay sane.
