How to make my SRS necro tankier?

I started out with Zizaran's SRS guide which was great for leveling and getting up to red maps. Then I invested about 10 divines and switched to Vikton's SRS build. The investment is very noticeable, I have about 7M DPS survivability feels better: 5.2k health, all res capped, 10 fortification, block caped and almost spell block capped (when Rumi's is up...), 5% life on block.

Still, the build feels squishy in more difficult maps and especially when I go to higher difficulty lake tiles. I got one-shotted from off-screen mobs a couple of times in difficulty 12 reflection of tyranny or they jumped me and mauled me in seconds despite Molten Shell being up... I feel like the next big upgrade would be to go CI with Aegis but all together that will require A LOT more investment. Is there anything that could make the build tankier right now with smaller changes or a few divines? Should I use chaos golem instead of the stone golem? Compared to Vikton's build I have two extra sockets (skipped Lifetap, added unset ring) so I'm currently running Haste with Divine Blessing but I could also put those towards something more defensive if that makes sense (though it would cost me about 1M DPS).

thats how Ziz builds are
No build creator's builds are tanky. NONE.

You can invest 300-400 MIRRORS. Your build will never be tanky.

Hard mode says you can kiss tankiness GOODBYE. Forever.
I am emotionally & mentally drained through the sharking waters.

You could check out my skele mages necro for a tanky minion build.
