Hello, I will give you a list of upgrades you should do:

-Your wand you can easily get a better one, if you cant upgrade atm you can get some juice from your wand, I think there is an suffix open so what you can do is craft aspect of the spider(aura).

-Use aspect of the spider instead of skitterbots(needs less mana reservation and you can have one free gem socket).

-Your helm you can upgrade it in 3 ways: divine it/get a better roll, lab enchant (you are looking for either reduced reservation on hatred/disc) and you after you do those two you can up the item quality to 28% (syndicate) or corrupt it for 30qual( beastcraft)

after you do the first 2 steps you are closer to being able to run discipline.
(worth over 2k es in later levels).

-is your reservation almost full? you need to have under 100 mana unreserved.

-you will get loads of Es and mana the next few levels since you are lvl 86 still. the next nodes you are getting are the 3 points in heart and soul and the 3 points in prodigal perfection.

-your shield can give you a lot more es, upgrade it for a roll above 185es with high mana roll (near 25) then either craft 28 resist from syndicate hakuor corrupt it from beastmastery for 30% qual.

-change poacher's mark ==> vulnerability and spirit offering ==> flesh offering. this will give you the dps boost that you lack.

These are your first priorities atm.

To not die from metamorphs you need to need soul ripper yeah.
I would say soul ripper is mandatory, bottled faith is optional.

That hasn't been my experience. Soul ripper is mandatory for deep delve (full disclosure, I've never done "deep" delve), but T16 metamorph I haven't seen the need.

Capped (30k) increased duration VMS should be sufficient for juiced T16 metamorphs on juiced T16 maps. Don't forget degen bypasses MS/VMS, and with the black on black on grey on black you can take 3k+ a second. Sometimes I come closer to death looting after everything is dead than during the fight.
Hits usually don't get through VMS, and increased duration should be enough.

My general strat is pop armor flasks(rumi's is one of these), capped MS (10k), hit meta. Clear any rares that spawn at 75%ish, pop flasks again, capped VMS (30k), stay on meta until dead.

I did die to a juiced phoenix meta though, before VMS I never saw the aoe cast animation. I was looking at the meta, but black on grey on black I didn't see much until the aoe wave one-shot me. Otherwise its been a long time since I died to a meta.
