Any chance someone can take a quick look at my profile and tell me what my next step is? I feel like I get destroyed on some maps that I don't feel have bad affixes for me. Am I missing something? Anything to improve on damage-wise? Thanks in advance.

I don't have much to say but here is a couple things that could help you.

1) First of all, you can add some quality to your gems. That should improve your damages. (Maybe not very usefull for your aura gems, but definitely a step up for all your other gems).

You can vendor one level 20 gem + one gemcutter and it will give you back a gem level 1 with 20% quality (don't do them all at once though).

2) Level up some gems in your offhands, so you can vaal them once level 20/20% and get a 21/20% gem if you're lucky.

3) Add quality to your flasks with glassblower's bauble.

Your Doedre's flask and granite flask (as you already have a Lion's Roar) could be removed for a flask with movement speed (Quicksilver flask) and a flask with immunity to curses (a must have ? you can go for a Quartz flask or a Basalt flask for damage mitigation).

If you have to keep the Sulphur flask, craft the immunity to freeze on this one, as you should be resistances capped.

You can craft a prefix and suffix using alterations, and check Einhar for the suffixes craft he can provide.

Don't hesitate to use them during mapping when you're in a fight.

4) Your "Cast when damage taken" can't support your "Wave of conviction", so lower the Wave of conviction with a scouring, or level up CWDT.

5) Get an abyssal jewel with %chance to blind on hit, if you're looking for more defense, or %chance to gain onslaught on kill for extra damage.

6) Flesh and Stone aura might be better than Blood and Sand if you still want more defence.
As you already have a lot of unreserved mana, the Enlighten support can be swaped for an "Enduring cry" if you keep Anger-Herald of Ash-Blood and Sand.
If you can't sustain your mana keep the Enlighten.

Besides that, your gear seems good, the next step would be to look for cluster jewels for more damages but I have no idea if this build has possibilities this way, keeping an eye on better rare items on trade...

few things i noticed.

Thread of hope is too large, get a smaller one that allows Magmatic strike Versatility, Steadfast and Butchery

You have a few passive spent on STRENGTH, seems to be wasted points

Cast when Damage taken should be a little higher and Berserk is WAY too high

I actually backed off on some of my damage and increased hp/def. killing stuff was easy but some thing one hit me

Awakened Fire Pen is also cheap


Hope this helps, I have done several t15-t16 maps

Yeah but in build, it says to not level some of the gems from that level? What should I do, and what do you mean by "You have a few passive spent on STRENGTH, seems to be wasted points"
