Vaal all Crimson Jewels, or if you're short on vaals just save the jewels up until you farm Shaped Vaal Pyramid. You can also roll Jeweller's Strongboxes for additional items and then vaal that box in hopes that it decides to drop some Crimson Jewels.

I'd recommend to stick with your current setup. There's a couple changes you should do in the passive tree, first one is remove that random 8% mana/10% mana regen node above Arcane Will and put that point into Deep Thoughts. You also don't need Nimbleness, you'll still be above 5 casts/s without so it doesn't actually give you any real damage. Put those points into the Celestial Wheel, and then finish the Alchemist nodes to buff your flasks for more survivability/damage and to prolong their duration.

You have a nice setup, only two small details i've noticed: You currently don't seem to have Cold Damage to Spells anywhere so your Hypothermia isn't working at full effectiveness. The other thing is your Lightning Res isn't the highest overcapped resistance, so you don't gain the Penetration from Wise Oak. You can possibly fix that with a different pair of boots and helmet, could use that opportunity to get a shaped or enchanted helmet, whatever is in budget. And then try to farm a boot enchant in merc lab.

You could possibly also spec out of Nimbleness and put those points into Alchemist, and then focus on the missing life nodes. You'd still stay slightly below 5 casts/s with Arcane Surge up, could even fix that with replacing the Behemoth Spire jewel with a similar one with cast speed.

In addition to what alex_disp wrote about Elder Spawn, it needs to be 20 maps inside Elder Influence for him and his guardians to spawn.

You seem to misunderstand how Armour works. You don't actually get 50% physical damage reduction, Armour can only prevent up to 10% of your total Armour value from a physical damage hit, and no reduction at physical DoT's (like the ones in Elder/Uber Elder fight) at all. 6% life regen/s is indeed better to sustain whats happening in many high tier fights, and 50% damage is 5% additional monster life per explosion with a 10% Inpulsa, which multiplied by the amount of mobs usually in a pack can already make the different between killing that rare mob or beyond boss with 1 skill use, or not. Plus the duration is much higher if properly rolled, you have a third use compared to Rumi's two uses and you get another extremely important flask suffix.

The PoB linked underneath my videos IS NOT an Uber Elder PoB, and nowhere does it state that. It's simply the gear i've used for the videos and the text clearly states that it's a very highend setup, but still attainable in a temp league. It also doesn't matter through which gearing choices it's reached, i'm at 90% of its DPS in Delve without a +1 Inpulsa or damage-oriented Watcher's Eye, and with only roughly 20-25ex invested into the char. That may sound much now, but really isn't 1.5 months into a league and is also far beyond what is needed. 450k DPS is enough for all content except 300+ depth Delve bosses.

Matter of fact is, most people who had damage issues did something wrong. Whether it's ignoring flasks completely, not keeping EO/Arcane Surge up, using a wrong gem setup or what not, even had people using a completely different build. Often this was caused by just jumping to the PoB without reading the guide. But there was always a reason, and the reason was never "lack of highend investments that I haven't even done myself". And the amount of people who had no issues at all far outweighed those that did, you just can't see most of that right here in the comments because obviously mostly the ones having an issue will post.

It's understandable that Uber Atziri may not be worth it in a SC Trade League at this point, but now think beyond yourself and imagine a new player wanting to experience all content for once or doing all challenges on their own and not being able to just cuz' the build can't do the fight, when infact it easily could with just a small change. Or doing their first Racecourse map. Or SSF players. Or people playing in permanent leagues. Your version is simply too restricting and directly goes against what this build is made for.
