few questionss:

As I dont have kaoms (and wont have any time soon) I have 5L Lioneyes and this chest

. Should I link one 5L with Frenzy+support gems and the other 5L with LA+support gems? Or would it be better to get one 6L item and link it together (frenzy+LA)? Or would be the best option be to get Thunderfists and link frenzy with it (in this case I would have one free 5L, what to link to it)? is the 25 ex+ investment rly worth it for those gloves?

Also my second question, how would Vaal pact work with this build? would it solve the issue with reflect?

thanks in advance

Vaal pact on life is the sketchiest thing in the game I don't recommend it at all. Dont put both active skills in 1 item if thats what you mean once you get a kaoms you would want thunderfists so that frenzy gets a little boost in damage from being in a 4L piece.

Just a quick question about Cruel bandit rewards.
Why choose 8% IAS instead of 18% increased physical?

My guess is that the physical damage is that low, because of using elemental attack type, that it won't benefit from physical? Just want to be clear on this one.

Might be a newbie question, but wouldnt it be better to get blood magic gem instead of passive, and use some auras? Assuming you dont run with Kaoms and can use 5+L on chest

I'm still not seeing high DPS with this build. All I have left is about 4 crit nodes as well. Here's my gear (Some of the gems in there are just because I'm leveling them for other purposes):

Any suggestions? Frenzy is around 8k with charges up and LA I only remember around 1600 without charges up. I have no problem just facetanking piety, but I still find it very fragile fighting bosses like the blacksmith on maps or anything else that can close the distance. I'm at 3.6k HP and am looking to reroll my chest piece or upgrade to one with higher HP. I know I need to upgrade necklace and a ring with better HP, but besides that I don't see why I should be getting 2 shot. Higher HP wouldn't solve the issue of life leech not outhealing the damage I take.

Also, I'm curious, the three 3% AS nodes just below the ranger tree seem to be very poor investments. If you shift one of the nodes over to a +10 dexterity it gives you two nodes to play with. These two nodes could be used for working towards projectile mastery or just any two big gain physical damage nodes couldn't they? I'm also working on getting power charges and ice spear going, but I have found it more trouble sustaining the charges than I gain in killing speed on packs (outside of big parties).

I am posting my adjustment suggestions for this build.
The adjusted build should be able to pull off more DPS.
It should also be more versatile item-wise.
I am not sure how these go along with LA, they might be a bit counter-productive.
