Running CI atm.

If I swap to abyssus, 6 power charges, blood rage, warchief, ice golem, and lion's roar, I'm sitting at about 3600-9500 main hand pdps compared to the op 6300-14000. I can't figure out where my pdps is lacking that much--seems like it should be obvious, but I am pretty bad at min/maxing.

Anyone mind taking a look at my gear (character is "FrankyBadfinger") and seeing if anything jumps out?

Here's my gear posted for anyone able to help:

[...]

Vinktars is really bad for this build because you don't want your phys dmg converted to lightning since poison doesn't scale with it. Swap it for Taste of Hate (added cold dmg, not converted) and swap Basalt Flask for Sulphur Flask - atleast when you like to post your biggest possible number.

The rest really is min/maxing; better dmg on claws, crit multi on gear and so on.

Hi guys i need some advices in this build i tried uber atziri and died and also tried chimera and died too, i have 7.3k ES

Also having troubles dealing with frost.

Thanks in advance

Hey, both of us have very similiar gear and I kill uber atziri, uber lab, chayula and guardians with it (not tried shaper yet). Most of these fights are just about learning the mechanics and knowing what to do. I failed one uber atziri run and one minotaur map too before I managed to kill them. Sometimes I still die to random shit (trash, wrong kill order on trio etc.) but 6 portals are more than enough to succeed in the end.

Yesterday I leveled from 91 to 92 only with 9 Chayula Breachstones and a few T15 maps.

For maps I switch my Witchfire Brew to one of the following flasks. Most of the time I use the Jade Flask since I'm skilled slightly different (Evasion; some ES/Eva hybrid nodes and Grace instead of Hatred).

Does anyone know if things like "increase area damage, increase damage, increase damage while dual wielding, increase damage with claws" = the same priority as "increased phsyical damage" when it comes to jewel shopping?

I was wondering, would the Death's Hand work as an offhand?

+30% additional phys dmg as chaos dmg
-70% increased dmg

Both scale the poison.
Bleed doesn't scale with death's hand, but I feel the bleed is minor compared to the poison.

I started this character in beginning of leage but as a new player I realised starting with ES build is probably not a good idea. So I rolled Life based dagger assassin and leveled all the way to 84. On my life based assassin I never had any issues with cold breaches.

Now I was able to afford one scourge claw so I decided to give this ES build another try. However I am pretty much 99% times killed in cold breaches now. I am always perma frozen. I am spamming anti freeze potion but nothing seems to help ... I don't know how to deal with those breaches anymore. On my life based char I NEVER had to worry about this.

Here are my items so far! It's hard to level. I think I die about 10-15 times per level so I gain like 1-2 levels per day at best ( I am lv79), kinda frustrating. Sitting at 6,7k ES with my bad gear.

I am hoping to get another scourge aswll however .. right now losing ES shield would drop me from 6,7k ES down to 5k, not to mention all the fire res I would lose!

So far enjoy this build very much though. If I only didn't die so much! But yeah looking for advice on why I am always frozen while on my life assassin I never even worried about that.

//edit ... also I could be wrong but as far as I noticed ... with all my charges up my crit is only at 45% ... what gives?
