hi Blastrophe,
first of all, gz to lvl 100!
The build is fun, but I am having huge troubles. First of all, my damage is simply horrible.
I deal 1.5 K with LA and 5.9 K with frenzy (no auras, no charges), I have 30% crit chance.
Second issue, survivability. I have poor 3.7 K HP, 75% fire and lightning and 63% cold resist.
I used Iron reflexes and unwavering stance but I was getting killed under 1 second with 44% phys reduction, so I switched to eva (ondars guile etc) I have around the same eva chance but I survive longer.
This is my equipment:
Spoiler
I can clear safely Docks and Lunaris, Scepter of God is impossible for me, so are higher lvl maps. I understand I am still kinda low lvl (73) but I truly expected a bit more with 80 exalts worth of equipment.
I am getting owned by any melee with gap closer (any higher lvl versions of Kole, Blacksmith, those frogs in Scepter and also having huge trouble with those Evangelists). I speced CWDT+endu charge+decoy totem+molten shell and also second setup CWDT with immortal call, it helped significantly but still huge troubles.
Obviously my next goal is to get legacy kaoms hearth (I tried the new one, only gave me poor 1K hp so thats not an option) and replace Le Heup with Taming and then run the lottery for 6L Voltax, but I am currently rly hesitating if I should even continue and dump another 150 exalt into this as I am rly struggling.
Please could you tell me what I am doing wrong, what should I replace or how to modify the skill tree?
Any help appreciated
Since you are ondar's you can still spec into unwavering seeing as dodge and evade are two different things. Your HP is quite low and I have taken a good amount of damage from those kinds of monsters the difference between us besides damage is that I have a higher life pool. If you think your damage reduction isn't high enough pick up that extra endurance charge and make sure they are up 100% of the time and buy yourself a jade flask and use that + granite flask at the same time.
Oh and another thing priorities your life passives. I see you are filling up the 3 life clusters next to the shadow tree but you haven't taken the 2 12% life nodes next to blood magic.

In the video where u solo 75lvl map u somehow get power charge when u crit with frenzy or LA. How do you do that ?
Also i am now sitting on 1,3k LA dps , 4,4k frenzy. 42.4% crit chance and 464% multiplier.
Still working to get 6l on my new chest and maybee 5l on bow if by then i won't get something better. I know its kinda slow but packs now just melt...
My gear now
Spoiler
Yea I like the bow alot because of its insanely high crit base. To answer your question in that video I hadn't thought of using Ice Spear at the time I had Power Charge on Crit linked to my LA i believe.

thx for the response,
well doesnt Unwavering stance nullify all the evasion? It clearly states "cannot evade enemy attacks" also the ondars guile states "evade", only Acrobatics states "dodge"...I am confused.
Also I dont know why is my HP so horrible, I have HP on most of my gear and took most of the HP nodes already and I am still on 3.8 k...I even tried the new kaoms, gave me 1k hp so assuming the legacy one will set me up on 6k hp orso, still dont understand how can you have 9:)
I still dont get why is my damage so horrible with this kind of gear, I went through this whole topic and I have same damage as ppl with 15 chaos worth of equipment <>

Ondars guile is the only one you can't get if you go unwavering which is pretty sketchy I suppose. The tree you sent me only have 188% life while mine has 256 or something like that. As for your damage you are still missing heartseeker which is a good damage boost once you get good enough crit and also missing deadly draw which is a pretty good cluster for crit. Getting into the shadow tree will also provide a good damage boost seeing as you get alot of projectile damage and crit and those life passives which will be needed for high levels.

Using it for the most part. Has worked well pretty much since lvl 1.

If I were you I would swap out added lightning on frenzy with inc crit strike it would help out alot lot more.

Hey guys so I'm currently 61 with this build and I guess now is about the time I should start investing in gear. I've currently saved up 2 ex 7 chaos 1 regal to spend on stuff. What would you suggest I buy first, obviously with most of your gear being incredibly expensive I'm not sure what to go for myself. I need things that will keep me going through my 70s & maps. Cheers

Amulet for sure and some whetstones to use on that bow till you can find a replacement xD
