Your build is missing a lot of things and your tree looks far from the build tree, get rid of hybrid ES/Life nodes.

Get Acrobatics to get 40% dodge and 30% spell dodge, that will be a life changer.

Switch that shit belt to a proper belt, you are missing around 100+ life from belt.

Low life on left ring.

Why do you have a mana flask, run level 2-3 clarity and replace it with Diamond flask.

Awakened Spell Cascade is the biggest survivability and damage boost there is.

I'm not quite sure what the reasoning is on why 100 life is better than the 2k ES I get from the replica soul tether.

It's not possible to run even a level 1 clarity because I'd have to drop either one of the aura's or vaal rf/assassins mark in order to run it, which would be an incredible dps loss.

Diamond flask is literally useless as I'm able to hit 90% crit without it.

Also, the tree im running is pretty much 1:1 on the end game setup 1 tree

I am in the start of maps but I dont have all the currency to max out my gear and im ripping a hell of a lot, more than I ever have on any other character, am i missing something ?

The soul tether is good, but its not super consistent because we dont have a good way to sustain energy shield.

With your ehp, i think your issue is dps? Having close to 7k+ ehp i wouldnt imagine any sort of survivability issue

You also need a -mana cost craft on your amulet, barrage actually costing mana might be a huge problem when trying to dash/avoid stuff. Mana might be a huge killer for you, 31 mana unreserved and 11 mana cost barrages, considering attack speed. Also, your dash cost 25 mana, after an attack, you are stuck being unable to dash, this is a huge killer

I built the original version of this build with MoM and 6kish ehp with it and i didnt really had issues with survivability until t16s, where i swapped into acrobatics(that is, with slightly more budget to get high life items)

This is not a build where you can stand and tank stuff, but i believe you are missing alot of potential life like crafting life on the rings

I would level precision so much at your stage, you probably have quite a bit of mana issues, making it hard for you to actually cast dash(you are reserving 85% of your mana +167 flat from precision). Not having flat mana cost reduction is probably killing your dash mid attack

I am having trouble obtaining the belt, should I stay away from the endgame 2 tree until I can obtain it ?

Ive been doing this build but a bit different LL version.
Thought id post where im at so far with it. Might help someone out.

If you have kinetic impacts up, you are pretty much good until t15-16 where the physical damage reduction goes up

I would focus on the body armor for now, better life rolls/resist, because it seems that your resist is your current issue with gearing

help me out with my single target damage. somethings off. it seems so terribly low. other than that my clear speed in t16 maps is really strong. do i just need an awakened conc effect that badly? thanks

Your set up seems fine and single target set up seems ok too, as long as you are dropping banner/focus and vaal RF, things should die decently fast


Except your gems arent fully leveled yet, but it shouldnt be that huge of a difference

Is it the map mods? extra life + phys reduction + less damage taken from crit can feel tanky sometimes

turns out I had +20% quality on my Spell Cascades giving the bladefalls +10% aoe. Got new gems without quality and that seemed to help a lot. Weird how much aoe on the bladefalls affects the damage but it makes sense. thanks for the reply
