Thanks, so let me get this right before I mess up.
As soon as I will replace my belt and/or boots to maintain my resistances capped without the contribution from my rare ring, I can slot in the gifts from above (with its proper blight enchant etc etc) and start moving around points in the tree to get closer and closer to the level 93 tree [that has some crit-related differences from the previous one], did I get everything right?
I think I am getting the gist of this.
The build is feeling so much better with automated flasks and a lot more ES.
Yea you got it! Incremental improvement in other spots as your gear improves.

Hello.
I've got a question regarding the cluster jewel. Does it matter how many small passives it has or is it more important to have 3 passives?
Because I bought one with 9 small passives and I had to use 3 more passives to get Sap Psyche and Seal mender.
But then I bought an 8 one and I still need to use 2 passives more than your POB because it doesn't seem to have a third passive (Seal Mender + Sap Psyche + (any passive)).
Also, if you could take a look at my character (Maj_Peyalos) and tell me what I should improve on next, I'd appreaciate it.
Cheers
Edit: Right now the only issue I'm having is surivability in some t16 maps with certain mods (vuln and crit off of my head) and bosses from Virisium Nodes are also difficult to kill due to lack of being tanky, and not enough dmg at this moment.

You'll want either a budget cluster jewel with just seal mender+sap psyche and 8-9 passives, or a finished jewel with 8 passives, seal mender/psyche, and one of the four listed 'positioning' notables (see POB). The correct third notable wastes itself to push the good notables forward.
The biggest quick upgrades i can see on your character would be:
- Your gloves should be thunderfist.
- Double gifts from above, requiring better resistances on belt+boots.
- Vaal or level 21 Arc
- Harvest craft wand
- Helmet and Glove corruptions (use thunderfist gloves)

Is it really worth it dropping both rings and gloves for dmg and lose being that tanky? I have 6.3k ES atm and I feel like it would drop to 5k at least :x
And thanks. I'll try the changes anyway and see how it goes.
Edit: Lost 1k ES xD

Yea, it's worth the tradeoff. You're looking at easily 30% more damage for 16% less ES. If you decide to run uber pinnacle bosses (such as uber eater), where EHP matters more, you'll need mageblood+max res setup. That has approximately 200% more EHP from different mechanics rather than max ES.

Yeah I've noticed the dmg difference and it's worth it yeah.
Getting a mageblood at this point won't be possible for me though haha since I started playing only a week ago and PoE 2 is right on the corner. 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for all the help!

Hello,
managed to upgrade my belt, put second crit ring, enchant it properly, find a great cluster jewel and overall progressing well.
I got most of my gems to 20 now, what to do?
Vaal them?
make them 20 quality with GCP then vaal them?
Anything else?

21/20 active gems are the main one.
I see you're gonna need catalysts, anoints, enchants, and corrruption implicits on most of your stuff still, as well. You can reference the POB for those specifics. I see your shavs is 5-L, that could be 6-L with damage corruption, for example. You'll want to save up for power charge rings too.

oh yeah i'm conscious i'm really really far from "the cap" on my build, but i'm really enjoying the journey and the improvements.
I have the POB setups well in mind, I feel like I cannot shoot Arcs as often as I would like cause i'm a bit bottlenecked by mana regen, I might suck it and buy an Enlighten for my boots setup and then get my clarity to higher levels to try and mitigate it somehow.
Gonna also try and get 21/20 gems done asap.

Leveling into sap psyche nodes is also huge.
