My carcass is 5l with bv,echo,aoe,duration and added fire dmg. I swap aoe for crit multi when single target bosses show up. Is these stats fine for this lvl or do i need tweaking?

Also, i didn't go for poison on the ascendancy tree. Should i respec to it?

I'm feeling like i'm too squishy. I can run some tier 12's ad 13's with mods, but often i die in these instances. I's this simply because i'm still this low level?

You don't need duration in your 5L, you can swap that for Controlled Destruction for 40% more damage, swapping to crit multi for bosses is fine too, I use conc effect myself but it does reduce AoE.

If you did want to go with Poison ascendancy you would have to use a 5L like this: BV + Echo + AoE + Controlled + Poison (or get Cospri's). So if you are happy without poison keep it as is, it cost quite a few regrets to change, but poison is nice against bosses and getting Volatile rare to die at range.

Yeah the build requires flasks to feel safe in the higher tier of maps, getting a higher level will give you more HP, but running a Basalt + Rumi's Concoction is the biggest jump in defence, I can't see your character tab so not sure what flasks you're running. Here are a few budget flasks if you can't afford Rumi's:

Finally got up the courage to make a build guide video for this character, interested to hear your feedback and hear anyway in which I can improve. I've really enjoyed making and maintaining this build guide and I hope it brings many of you wealth and happiness in the lands of Wraeclast!

Thanks for this!

One question though, if you can't afford a 5-6 linked cospris or carcass jack would you just stick with tabula or is there another good choice?

Well in Essence league I am currently using a 4L helmet for my Blade Vortex, because of how good the Essence of Insanity is, 50% added lightning damage is really nice:

You could craft one on a life base helmet and just use Kaom's Heart as your chest piece for a tonne of life - you'd miss out on a few gem sockets though. Aside from that the other options are Lightning Coil for physical mitigation, Belly of the Beast for HP, Kingsguard for a bit of life recovery when immortal call goes off or a good rare 1.5k+ evasion or armour chest piece. You have to consider the cost to chrom the items though, Carcass jack being the easiest to get Blue and Green sockets on.

I might go a lightning coil or belly but yeah, the links are going to be a pain to chrome. Also how good is rathpith? at best i believe its a 15% spell block chance right? how good is that?

It's when you use Rathpith with Rumi's Concoction, it gives me 61% block and 53% spell block - you should be able to see it in the build video I did for the DPS version, I explain it here: https://youtu.be/2f6wXsx4rgo?t=380

The spell block it gives helps with reflect and the odd danger like molten shell, lightning thorns, fire thorns, etc.

Go for Rumi's first it works well with any shield, the prices for both will drop quickly, they used to be 60c each and are now almost 30c.

I bought two Divinarius and some other stuff, got 4k hp, put Vaal Pact. Got DPS gear on, what should I improve now? I'm lvl 81 but feeling far behind, somehow...

Your gear is fine, the amulet could have crit multi and life and you can roll alts on your granite flask for better mods but aside from that it's all good. Just keep levelling there is plenty of life nodes and jewel sockets for life/dps stats to get.

What is it that you feel behind on the most?
