Hi fellow tankyblocktemplardudes,
Now, I think it's my gear's fault.

Yes.
Find a fast attack weapon, atleast 1.50aps. Doesnt matter if its a dagger, sword, axe, mace, claw. If it has +% physical damage, and 1-4 extra damage and attack speed you are in heaven.
all your gear that can have +damage should have it. The hat aint so bad actually. but your rings and amulet are. %-damage or elemental damage is almost pointless for us (atleast in the start). The attack should be supported by multistrike, faster attack, melee physical damage, melee splash or weapon elemental damage. If you find a mana leech gem, then you can easily use lightning strike also. Then add either fork or lesser multiple strike and you clear the screen before the mobs are entering.
Make a scion, steal its spectral throw, find a LMP and kill faster then ever, that skill just needs to be nerfed...

We use passive nodes to survive, and when we can survive we can re-focus the gear to damage. Having extra resists rings/shield to switch for the cold/fire/lightning specific areas are also very helpful.

In cruel, its worth taking a bit of time to level up in "The Ledge" before continuing or doing the extra side areas.

I love it, to stand there, surrounded by mobs, taking like no damage and hitting down everything around me.

I changed over to another weapon:

But as you suggest I'm still looking for a nice fast axe.

But it's going to be a slow process I suppose.
