Could someone looka t my gear and tell me what I should improve? Hydra always beats me up.
You need more Int. Your chest has zero Int, i.e. that's not a chest for this build. Your boots are very low Int as well. Your rare jewels are weak too. What's your Int with that stuff? Something like 1300? I don't think you are quite ready for the Hydra yet.

In your opinion, Rainbowtride are a good option for boots? I dont find any goods boots while farming map for the moment, and i'm short of currency for the moment to buy rare boots with int bonus, ES, movement speed and rez. But with Perandus 2% int bonus per unique, it's like Rainbowstride can give a light int bonus isn't it?
Rainbowstride is OK for leveling, but I always skip straight from Shav Pace to some cheap rare boots. 2% Int bonus from Perandus just for being a unique won't be enough to use Rainbowstride over a 5-10c pair of rare boots. No Int is a serious drawback for any boots. 60 total resists you can easily find on rare boots on poe.trade. And for 40-50c you can find far better boots for the endgame.

Hey guys can you all take a quick look at my char for me and give me some instruction on what to upgrade next! thanks
Find a chest with good Int. Zero Int = bad. Find better gloves too. Start trying to make a better belt as well (with Shrieking Spite; keep yours, buy another base and roll it until you get 2 res mods).
You are exactly where you should be at 85. Keep leveling and grab more sockets.

But now have moment when dont know what next :( actually have 6,5k es with discipline is low to uber lab and end game content. Iry dont know how pass 8k es :(, 82 lvl and there is my gear:
Have 1 ex budget to change some , so pls of feedback :D
6.5k ES is not low at all for lv 82. It is enough for Uber Lab as well, if you don't let Izaro max buff (he has charges + curses today; don't do that with 6.5k ES).
But your tree shows that you skipped both of the Brute Force jewels! Ouch. That means you have a ton of Str unconverted to Int. Grab those ASAP. That Int will give you ES and DPS. It will likely push you over 1300 Int too, time to switch from Doedre's Scorn to Black Sun Crest for even more Int.
And just keep leveling.

I got a last one question about perdanus gift effect, did the unique flask gems count as a unique piece of equipement for the int bonus? If yes it could be very usefull to put one ore two unique flask into the belt, like one unique sulphur lask and wy not, Rumi's?
No, only the worn items count for the Perandus bonus.
Ok thanks for the precisions! I will search for goods boots still I get enough chaos
I love this build. Doing well so far. Level 84 doing T8 easily for the most part.
My trouble so far is dealing with ignite map mod? All monster hits ignite you. I watch my ES go down to 0 and die.
Once I get ignited and with the recommended flasks, there's no way to deal with it. Should I change a quicksilver to prevent ignite?
Edit: typos
It usually is no problem at all to outleech the damage if you just clear the map at a "normal" pace. But if you're having trouble with ignites, sure, grab an ignite flask.
I mean, come on guys, use your own brains. You dont have to ask papa Kelvynn for permission to try a different flask setup. ;-)

That's a good point but I was curious to hear the input of others and how they are dealing with it. The problem was usually after the mobs die the ignite would finish me and I had no mobs near me to leech off of.

how many minutes do you typically take to clear, lets say, a mesa map?
what you're describing sounds like a case of not enough clearspeed.
Wow - started this character as my 2nd this league in LSC (casual player, 1-3h a day, weekends more) and just hit lvl 90 yesterday and my little witch just rocks. I pretty much only die because of bad PC / connection issues, but apart from that: super tanky and kills everything (even bosses) within seconds. Enfeeble, EE Core map with some more map mods - ez game...!
My gear:
Spoiler
Thanks to some wiggling with my jewels I was able to put my resistances at 132 for all 3 elements - so not only helps with extra penetration but also with a nice reduction to all incoming elemental damage. With end. charges and the flask ele weakness maps aren't to much of a problem either.
Next I will try to get the jewel socket in the shadow area, try to get some better jewels in general and hopefully claim my gfs PC on one of the upcoming weekends to try my luck against the guardians (and shaper). With 8.3k ES, 6.5k Icestorm damage (with golems, sulphur flask and pend. of destr.) I should have a chance, right? Would be my first shaper kill ever, so I'm hyped.
So a big thanks to Kelvynn for this great build and guide!
So you are uncapped on resists in Merc without wise oak up? Is that normal for this build?
Currently level 78 and unable to get all 3 capped in merc due to gearing being difficult and very pricey!
Well - res isn't easy to get on this build, I guess. I'm using some nodes in the passive tree (and jewels with additional int) to get to 132 all which is nearly capped. But there is def. room for improvements on my gear - my chest has a grand total of 0 elemental resists for example... But since each end. charge gives 4% all res and you create them fairly quick (even with IC), I'm basicly capped all the time. And in clutch situations, my flasks are up either way... So I think uncapped resistances aren't too much to worry about, at least they are no problem in low/mid level maps, because you outleech any damage. I even did a T10 or T11 ele. weak & ele reflect map some days ago. Alternated between wise oak and a ruby flask and I had no problems.
I can't say anything on mid- to endgame performance, but your levelling guide is the most detailed and noob firendly i have seen in my 1.5 months of poe. firestorm got a bit cheesy in a4 normal from before lvl 39 but i just transitioned into cwc sr and it plays great. facetanking all the bosses is pretty funny. the sr targeting feels a bit odd for a 5-year d3-player but i think i'll get used to it.
