Hey guys what you think is the best small tattoo to use, chaos res, life% or 1% aura improvement?
I managed to get a SotL but had to swap rings and ended up with lower chaos res and hp than i Had, now im not sure if my defenses are good or not and what should i focus on getting for it.

this is my pob: https://pobb.in/29JS4LweGd8k

Also I would really appreciate tips on whats the next step gear wise to improve on, im currently farming red altars with expedition and dont really know if I should switch it or not.

Thanks all.

I used the small tattoos to fill in holes in my build. Needed a little extra strength/dex, so I threw in some +4 all attributes in place of some int. Then I needed a little extra Chaos, so I threw in a handful of those. Getting a few of the reservation ones allows you to get defiance banner.

One thing I see is you don't have the "50 to max life" mastery allocated. I would drop one of the 4% life/ES nodes by purity of flesh and instead allocate that 50 to max life. I think you have enough % life on the tree that it would be more life. You don't have the best flat life rolls on any of your gear. So 50 life should be a lot better than 4%.

Why is my energy shield not recharging? I don't have mana for skills. There is my pob https://pobb.in/16NsaBQVLXeN.

Thats very for good advice once again, ty :DD Im very noob so I leveld up yesterday and instead of getting the +50 life I went with melding's 5% life talent, did what you told me and the difference was about 150hp lol, gotta a lot to learn on the passive tree.

Im running DB too, ended up using 2 chaos res tattos to get 50%+ and went with life on the rest, got the death rush ring and now I feel pretty good mapping.

Last quick advice I can see would be roll your eldritch implicit on your gloves and aim for the "When a Unique monster is in your presence, gain 19% cold DoT multi" implicit. You don't really need the extra 9% or so you get while mapping. You want that larger dps boost for bossing as you are geared enough to instantly melt everything you come upon in maps.

How are you dealing with ignite damage? It doesn't happen often, but a handful of times I have found myself dying to a strong, lingering ignite. I am running blue(eater) influence on maps, so I am running Gruthkul over Abberath. Would a few Tattoo of the Ngamahu Shaman be a solution? Or is grabbing corrupted blood immunity elsewhere and running an ignite life flask the solution? Thanks in advance.

Tattoo of the Ngamahu Shaman is fine if you have extra STR stats.

Other options would be to attempt to trigger feast of flesh to heal or just run Abberath.

If you wish to run ignite life flask and get corrupted blood immunity on a jewel/protection mastery, bleed is still an issue and you will need to find 60% more bleed avoidance somewhere.

Whether your defense is sufficient or not depends on the content that you are attempting and your playstyle, so I cannot speak for you. If you are happy with the defenses, then you can spec more into offenses (and vice versa).

1% aura improvement is the offensive route, chaos/% life is the defensive route.

Next upgrades:
1. Malevolence lvl 21 for more DPS
2. Look into stacking more resistances/life/attributes into gloves and amulet so that you can pick up Mark of the Shaper + Elder ring combo or Death Rush
3. Look out for corrupted belt and boots with useful corrupted implicit
4. Look out for Devouring Diadem with increased Frostbite or Ele Weakness effect (or get a lab runner)
5. Purchase Frigid Wake jewel set
6. Level up

Let us know how it goes. Cheers!

Seeing skin of the lords discussion, i spent 20 divs for mine without a detrimental keystone. They are really pricey
The forbidden jewel is insanely pricey this league aswell i remember crucible they were much cheaper. Saw on poe trade earlier today there is only one forbidden flesh or flame i forgot, for 25 divs

This is my current build
https://poe.ninja/pob/jrM
Thinking the biggest impprovement is switch jewels to get anather DoT multiplier line, get mark of the shaper combo ring, implicit on legacy, and frankly the amulet but not sure what to do there yet. Haven't touched tattoos yet so i think thats also something i neeed to get into

do consider death rush ring. OP prefers mark of the shaper for better clear, i prefer death rush for better zoom

On top of the rings/legacy implicits/tattoos, other improvements:
1. Get levels (you can purchase 5-way leveling service from TFT)
2. Replace the adds cold damage implicit on your gloves with CDoT multiplier
3. Get Empower level 4 for higher DPS
4. Get Frostbite level 21 for higher DPS
5. Get 20% quality on Faster Attacks, Flame Dash and Shield Charge for improved mobility
6. Get 20% quality on Efficacy, Divine Blessing and Ele Weakness for higher DPS
7. Replace controlled destruction on gloves with awakened CD

Sometimes you gotta wait for the cheaper price sellers to come online.
