Hmm let's see. For the most part you have solid life rolls on your gear except for your chest. I suggest getting a high health rare for a large increase in your hp pool. As you said damage is not an issue so Dendrobate isn't worth it anymore. Since you have Constitution and not Whispers of Doom on your amulet you can look to also put your additional curse enchant on your new rare chest. As of now you can't use two curses (despair and temp chains) which is hurting both your offense and defense.

As far as your tree goes it looks good as far as getting all the hp nodes you have access to on the right side of the tree. You could put 4 more points to fill in through Phase Acrobatics if you want but having at a minimum Acrobatics is good enough. Your offensive pathing could be more optimal but your damage is fine so we won't worry about that. You only have one jewel node when you are near 4 total so I'd definitely suggest trying to get those. Well rolled jewels with 7% max hp are incredibly strong. You can take a look at my tree, I dual wield daggers myself so the pathing may be more to your liking. Especially the bottom part of the tree, Ambidexterity and Dirty Techniques are very strong.

Bino's is amazing but I'd replace the Arakaali's Fang asap. Look to getting a delve crafted dagger with 60% chance for 100% more poison damage. Just like most assassin builds you can only obtain so much defense. A good offense is often times the better defense. A well crafted multimod weapon will be better than Arakaali's for sure. I'm pretty sure that dagger is for minion builds anyways, not poison-centric builds.

For your flasks I suggest dropping Atziri's for a Basalt Flask. The physical mitigation is huge and not diminished by Acrobatics like a Granite flask would be. You are also lacking anti freeze and anti curse suffixes on your flasks, so I would put those on the Basalt and Mana flasks. The anti bleed on your hp flask is good.

Ultimately even when this build is geared out to max it will never be able to face tank content. You'll have to be swift and reactive in your playstyle and constantly moving to survive. As good as plague bearer and withering step are for offense, forcing their use to get up close to a dangerous mob can sometimes spell disaster. If you have to, just stay at range and kill deadly rares and uniques a little slower from a safer distance. Attemping to save a few seconds for more dps is wasted if you die doing so. I'd also suggest Increased AOE support on your plaguebearer to make it easier to land from a safer range.

Edit: One final tip, you can use Enduring Cry for endurance charges.
