trying serveral characters

i try serveral characters and get ful res but die constantly in maps dosent matter how much i spend

I agree with seaman.

I play this game very defensively minded. I HATE dying. So my builds always invest in strong defensive items before damage.
I'm not a competent Necro so I can't make any recommendations there. But if you go back on your Jugg and cap all res including chaos, get 50k armour, auto Molten Shell, use a thick shield, pick up the 3 max endurance charges on tree and get a bunch of life/life regen... then you're basically unkillable in maps.

and? are you saying that you should be immortal because you have 75% resistances? capping resists isn't even a defensive layer, it's a mandatory thing

there's a reason we have so many defensive layers in the game, try to build some of them

As the other replies indicate, capping your resistances is where you START your defenses, not where you end. You still need to layer in other defenses such as armour (and other phys damage reduction), block, spell suppression, evasion, recovery, ailment immunities, etc. And more life... Always more life.

Without some decent combination of these layers, you should expect to die a lot.

Stick with a class and a skill that you enjoy.

The learning curve of this game is stiff, you have to play a lot and read a lot about the defenses and the merits of each class in combination with the chosen skill.

Nobody can help you with a few lines in a forum post, is more complex than this.

If you truly like this game I am sure that eventually you will find your way.

All you need is practice.

It's not mandatory, it's just nice to have. If you can reliably kill/freeze/stun mobs before they see you, you're good, even without defenses.

My glass canon Warden can easily complete maps with negative resists and no defenses (blue altars combos). If I get hit, I die. But usually I don't get hit for several maps in a row.

I'm curious about what level of PoE1 (and/or general dungeon runner game) proficiency one would need to be able to kill the act 10 boss as a glass cannon ?
