I know i need to get one more small passive in the cluster jewel, but even i get the last node, i only have 90% fire and lightning, 87% ice. Can anyone tell me what have i done wrong and how can i correct it? thank you very much
PoB Pastebins are not working currently for anyone, but if I had to hazard a guess, I'm getting you don't have a lvl 23 purity of ice gem. To lvl 90% resistance takes two things.
+200% aura effect
Lvl 23 purity.
You can get a lvl 23 purity buy putting a lvl 20 purity in a +3 ring, putting a lvl 21 (corrupted) purity in a +2 ring, or in the +2 shield.
I'm betting that your Purity of ice is in your boots, and is a lvl 20, or 21 gem. Most people are getting around this by using these boots:
since they GRANT you a lvl 25 purity skill. That allows you to run the skill in the boots, the +2 to +5 skill in a ring, and a corrupted purity in the shield for at least lvl 23 on all purity skills.
i'm struggling mainly against physical damage, what can be done against this?
That's the build's weakness. You counter it with flasks (Granite, Taste of hate, Basalt) and the mod "%physical damage from hits taken as (element) damage" as a corrupted mod on your shield, or as a mod on your watcher's eye.
You can also get a +1 to minimum endurance charges for a bit more physical reduction.
It's on older and only pastebin that still seems to work.
Since POB pastebins don't work anymore (404 error) here is the code to import, with the latest version of my build variant, with a whopping 10M DPS PER GOLEM.
Copy the code, and paste it in POB and you're good to go. ;)
I hope those pastebins are getting fixed soon, not able to export them is a pain in the ***.
You know... Since you are running a cyclone varient, and don't care about maxing your resists. I would look at use "The Stampede" boots. Those boots are BiS for cyclone as they make cyclone not slow down your movement speed at all. In your build it's better than having quicksilver up all the time.
The action speed increase from Torrent's Reclamation would STILL boost your speed. AND with those boots you could annoint Gravepact for a 9% DPS boost, or Champion of the Cause for reduced mana reserverd, and more aura effect.
They also make your movement skills regain charges so fast that coupled with the belt, I'd switch to frostblink over flame dash, as it's truly instant, and the recovery on it would lightning fast. You also gain a flask slot since quicksilver doesn't do anything for you anymore.
You would lose a bit of energy shield, max lightning resistance and you would need to find a place for purity of lightning, but you should give it a shot.

My cluster setup is:
3x First Amog
1x Replenishing Presence
4x 25% increased effect
2x Renewal
1x Feasting Fiends
1x Rotten Claws
Also: 1 Anima, 1 Might and 2 Harmony.
What do you think about my next step should be?
Get more awakened gems, get a Renewal, Rotten/Feasting and Vicious...
Maybe improve my AG gear. I'm running the low budget version (Leer Cast, Belly, Dying breath).
Thanks!!

damn, right on, my ice is 21 and thats why i can hit 90%. So the way to work around is getting that boot, since it grants me a lightning 25, means i dont need to reserve mana for it right? Then i might be able to fit in another aura, like flesh and stone?
however, that also gets me another question, how can you hit the DEX requirement for the items? i checker your gears, main stats are pretty close to mine, do u have a node in your tree to boost DEX or STR?

Sadly it still reserves mana, but it saves you the gem slot!
I have quite a bit of increased attributes on my medium passive cluster jewels. Between that, my rare ring, and the +13 all on my boots, I'm sitting at 158 str, and 165 dex

Thanks for your input!
I know it would do those things, however, I'll lose my flesh and stone aura again to fit in purity of lighting. I also prefer Anomalous flame dash over Frostblink, because of the cooldown, which flame dash doesn't have and extra travel distance. On top of it, my movement speed is already "fixed" with cyclone thanks to my animate guardian. He's wearing Garb of the Ephemeral, which has the mod "nearby allies action speed cannot be modified below base value."
Honestly, I don't think the difference will be big enough to drop flesh and stone and I doubt my DPS loss is compensated by Gravepact.
I'm already clearing (decent layout) maps in under 2 minutes now no matter the tier, so speed is not an issue.
I'm also already on the low end in ES (6.3K in-game) so dropping below 6K is not an option defensive wise.

Is garb making your Cyclone speed normal? Garb protects you from action speed slows not movement speed slows like cyclone. I've been using Cyclone variants for like 5 leagues now. It's a total individual QoL decision, but pick up a cheap pair of stampede, slap in a lvl 18-20 frostblink and test it in a low map. Frostblink doesn't interrupt cyclone when using it, while Flame dash does.... they have the same travel distance when leveled, and with the stacked 100% cooldown recovery you'll rarely notice the cooldown.
Hi, try to move to your build, but can't get near 15M per Golem. Also have problem with max resist. Need yours advice what need to upgrade, how to improve.
Your resists are lower for two reasons, the main one is that you aren't hitting the 200% aura effect breakpoint due to your medium jewels. You grab self-control on one of them, and that's 8% less right there. Two ways to fix it.
1. Drop the medium cluster with Self-control for another replenishing/First amoung node. That should get you to 90%. But require you to get reduced reservation on 3 jewels (your golem jewels most likley).
2. Replace the phoenix shard medium cluster for one with 35% increased effect of small passive nodes. That should get you an extra 8% effectiveness as well, but that jewel certainly be expensive.
The other issue you have with resists is that the Purity of ice in your shield isn't lvl 23. You need to put a lvl 21 (corrupted) purity in there for the shield to boost it to lvl 23.
Here is what I would do:
First get a lvl 21 purity of lightning for your shield. That alone should take your resists to 89% all If you drop that Self-Control node, you should be able to hit 90% all... BUT in order to do that, you'll need to get three jewels with 1% reduced reservation.
As for your PoB DPS, the main key you're missing is Vaal Haste. Vaal haste is a huge "I win" button when it's up. I save it for legion monoliths, bosses, or other times when I'm feeling like I need a quick massive DPS boost. It's not up all the time, but you'll really feel it when you hit that button.
Most of the rest of the DPS is incremental. Gem levels mostly, make sure you have the gem quality type selected correctly in PoB. Some of those qualities can make a big difference.
I'm also not sold on Divergent Precision. The less AOE effect also gets scaled, so ends up decreasing everyone's AOE (including anyone you party with) by like 30% Not really worth it for boost IMO.
