Enki's Arc Witch Memorial Page & POE 2 Arc Summary

Is there any weapon upgrade i could make that would increase my dps without having to spend the currency right now to craft 2 ilvl85 shaped daggers? That is most certainly my next upgrade but first id like to buy the watcher's eye, and maybe 6L my inpulsas, but i dno i might go for end game daggers before that.

For now, was hoping i could find some sort of dps upgrade in the meantime for maybe under 100c. Buy those, save up 3ex for watchers, then buy 2 daggers which looks like another 4ex for bases. Currently at 46.8k in game tooltip dps.
Is anybody able to tell me how I might fix my problem of being so squishy? I'm currently 89 and I feel like I'm getting one shot by a lot of things. Having trouble with certain bosses after about t11 and I find myself dying a lot. I'm not sure if this is just the fact that this is my first time through the game or if I'm doing something wrong with my build. I believed that my 4300 hp and 670 es would be enough for most content, but I must have been wrong. I hope somebody can help me find out what I should be moving towards next. Thanks for any help.

zero HP on jewels. All that "minions deal # additional *** damage" doesn't do anything even with spiritual aid node, it's not "increases". You stacked all your resistances on jewels, it's just not good to exchange HP for res, you should try to get more resistances on your other gear in the future upgrades.
Get all flasks, that are recommended in the guide
Get essence worm ring with wrath in it. Kill your enemies before they can kill you :)
Bubonic trail boots are not great. Again, low HP, no res
Very low life on amulet. only 60 life on gloves, only 73 life on helmet.

I don't wanna judge your loreweave choice, you can keep it. But inpulsa's is just up better for this build.

Ive tried looking at blg_RealiZe character but i dno if im just retarded but clicking on the character doesn't do anything?

Im fine on dps for low red maps with my shitty weapons except for syndicate. Id like to try out lightning spire, i loved it in my arc trap during flashback. I just dont know what to drop, etc?

I want to switch to inpulsa's but I managed to 6l this loreweave on accident and I've had these survival problems so I figured that switching out the resists and hp wouldn't be the best choice until I can figure out my problem. Do you have any numbers in mind that I should aim for as far as hp on each jewel and gloves/amulet/helmet? And should I be looking for rare boots instead? I was lured in by the big damage that I'm getting from the abyssal jewel types, but if I'd be better off without the bubonic then I suppose I should switch. Trading survival for 40% probably isn't a good choice in hindsight.
I just crafted a pretty good helmet :D

Fossil crafted life + res + -9% lightning res
Slamed exalt for prefix the first time - got trash mod. Successfully annuled trash mod, slamed ex again - lightning damage to spells :O

p.s. Bought a pretty good belt too

90+ HP on a helmet, 80-90+ on boots and gloves (better 100+ HP or HP + strenght), 60-70+ HP on ring and amulet.
Preferably 40-50 HP on abyss jewels or 6-7% HP on a regular jewels

7% double damage, 11% non-chaos damage as extra chaos
And, IMO, just 18% cast speed (without arcane surge)
Think about it this way: do you really need that extra damage from arcane surge while clearing maps? You should have enough damage vs regular monsters anyway. But vs bosses you want every single point of extra DPS (and you don't kill while fighting vs bosses most of the time so you can't proc arcane surge from your crafted mod).
And we have arcane surge in our storm brand setup anyway
Thanks Enki, for a great guide. I have followed this guide in multiple leagues.
This was the first guide that really tought me how to build a character.

One question; Is it possible for you to add a custom filter to the guide, that you would use while leveling this build? I have been making my own filters for a couple of leagues now, via filterblade, but I am always a bit worried that I hide things I shouldn't, or don't highlight things I should.
If this is not something you want to spend time on, I understand, but it would be great for us not so experienced players.

Thanks again for the great build.
