Build provides zero defence, sadly.
So many mandatory uniqs do not allow us to collect good amount of life and elem/chaos resists.
Just comparing with my BV - there I have 2 uniqs (Divinarius and Cospri's Will), and with another gear I've collected tons of elem resists (overcapped to make elem weakness debuff pointless), capped chaos res, good amount of evade and block chance (coz shield)
Here we have 5 uniqs, and to obtain another gear with good stats you'll spent tons of EXs - every part of other gear (2 rings, amulet, belt and boots) would cost you per 2ex or more.
Without it you'll be at low HP, maybe with capped elem resists but with still minused chaos one...

Still have no any idea, how it's possible to have 5k+ HP without Kaom's as it shown at his videos...

Qotf, 3 jewels with life, good gear with life and u can get 5k+ at lvl 90 - thats what i have, with respeccing into scion wheel 6k+
With pathfinder atziri promise gives 42 chaos res which helps a lot.
Vs ele there is 8% reduced from pathfinder + vinktar (helps in - max resist with reflect rares)
Vs phys basalt could help (especially on vulnerability maps)
And best defence is vinktar with vaal pact.

Yeah surviability its hard in merc specially with out max resit... and you can't really compare this with BV at low level. When you get to 85+ then thats when you'll see how great the build is. ofcourse the surviability is not cheese like BV, but clear speed will be crazy. I will start streaming soon (later today) since im finally able to afford HH after grinding and speed clearing t14 maps. speed clear really makes a big difference in making $$$$$ in this game. Specially when you one shot t14-t16 mobs.

Failed 3 Drillnecks: 1 becomes rare (><), and 2 without any changes.
Bought this one for 6c

still better than the deafult...

Tested Orb of Storms too.
Found, that manual implementing curses is an easiest and fastest way :D

if you're using the unset unique ring just put curse on herald of thunder and you'er golden

Works pretty fine.
All the charges are up almost all the time.

i use perandus mod on my maps. always good money for me, got like shavs and taste of hate. and i switch bow to windripper for quantity, but voltaxic is still best for reflect and damage. and chaos>ele.

and switch to path finder to test it out. DeadEYE is still alot better than path finder so will probably switch to deadeye soon. just needed change lol, 97 with same everything burns you out sometimes.

just wanted to switch it up.

windripper + 34 penetration (10 from pf //14 from tree//10 from boots) is better than voltaxic.
i was hesitant to change from voltaxic (afraid of reflect) but so far no rip cos of reflect :p so it isnt that scary. of course reflect maps are not doable anymore, but with voltaxic it wasnt 100% safe too).
and dps with ripper is much higher - not only tooltip, but penetration is very important (almost doubles dps vs bossess//or even triples vs high lightning resistant stuff)
according to poedb most bossess have 30lightning res//15 chaos, shaper+ guardians got 40//25. so its just 15% res diffrence- thats why 34 lightning penetration > chaos
poison could be good with cospri's will + witchfire brew, otherwise ripper is clear winner (tbh phys bow are clear winner but they are expensive). also most endgame stuff is resistant or even immune to poison.
deadeye is nowhere close to pathfinder level. it may only have higher tooltip dps, but offer nothing for survivability//utility.
while pathfinder has lots of usefull stuff like better flask (20% effect is huge), elemental status immunity, ele penetration, reduced elemental damage.
while deadeye is just dps, but in current meta high end content is testing your survivability rather than damage dealing abilities. and flasks are really important part of current meta, and pathfinder is better in that field than deadeye

Yes, we know that. Hope, it will be nerfed soon or this is just crazy.
Anyway, why Windripper is better than Voltaxic? What so special it brings to the table?
You can use Voltaxic without poison, really.
