I've just respeccced to this build for roughly 20 ex gears (2000 str btw). My initial impression is that it's very strong in clearing but for single target, even though POB put me at 24 mil, it's still difficult to quickly kill guardian-tier bosses unless I can dodge their mechanics very well. Phoenix and Mino, for example, are easy enough but Chimera or Hydra is a pain.
I guess the only choice is to invest more?
any poison build is going to struggle against bosses that have multiple phases and immune between phases because poisons and wither need to ramp
we lack initial burst but the good thing is once you have ramped few sec u dont need to attack till its dead
boss damage will get better when you invest more into the build :D

Can I use a small cluster to get Enduring Composure to get EC on hit instead of changing body armor? It may hurt dps a bit but I think it's better than changing gears.
Maybe I really need flesh and stone for blind / less damage effect.
Do you think shield charge + fortify is a good choice too?

yes you can use fortify but i chose dash because of phasing
Build looks solid , having no issues with whatever i throw at it.
Trying to roll better lethal pride but its a currency sink to actually get something better
If i change shield i can reach 2500 Str but damn that baby brings so much survival its insane
Having an Anomalous Kinetic Blast gem which pierces allows you to skip the pierce cluster and allocate those points elsewhere.

yeah i've changed to anomalous kinetic blast shortly after writing this guide. but i didnt remove pierce cluster cos its QoL and damage is high enough
