Hi,

Could you help me also what to buy next. I have some of 2 exalt of money and need to get more damage to Barrage.

Clearing in T12-14 is not a problem, but bosses takes too long.

- You have 2 mana flasks. That's 2 more than you should have.
Your flask setup should be:
• 1 Diamond flask with curse immunity/freeze immunity/attack speed (whichever the map mods call for);
• 1 Quicksilver flask of whichever you didn't get on the Diamond;
• 1 Dying Sun;
• 1 Bubbling/Seething Divine Life flask of Staunching;
• The 5th flask is situational.

My own favourite is replacing the Quicksilver with a Quartz flask of Adrenaline. This gives you max (75%) attack and near max (65%) spell dodge during Withering Step. This setup, though, is quite hard and probably pricy to obtain.
I run it with 35% MS (30% MS + 5% MS if not hit recently) boots to offset the loss of a Quicksilver, and a CoH Poacher's Mark which means my flasks are full basically all the time, even on reduced flask charges maps.
The only map mod that fucks it up is Hexproof and Reduced Curse effectiveness on high Awakening levels (which basically makes monsters hexproof, since Awakening 8 increases the map mod effectiveness by 24%).
I've obtained this setup specifically for those fucking poison bombardment Al Hezmin mobs, which apparently shoot 200 million projectiles at once, and have a great tendency to global you on T16's, even with no damage mods and a fully upgraded Soul of Shakari.

Currently, the biggest upgrade to your Barrage DMG by far (+40%) would be a Dying Sun.



It has to be a "decreased Charges used" Dying Sun, so it can be popped twice per boss fight. This is of utmost importance.



Your Barrage DPS without those 2 flasks:


Your Barrage DPS with those 2 flasks:


Each flask is a ~40% more modifier, wich is straight up 96% (40+(40+40*40/100)=40+40+16=96) more damage.

458121 + 96 * 458121 / 100 = 897917.

- Second thing, I'll quote myself:

"

- I strongly believe neither Tombfists nor Bubonic Trail belong in this build. At least not until you have some bonkers mirror tier rings (80+ life, 150+ total res, 40%+ ele damage, Warlord/Assassin Mark on Hit, spider/cat aspect, etc), which in leagues probably does not happen. They both use %life increases, which are practically useless if you have no actual base life to be affected. It's much better to use those 2 slots on defensive items and get offensive jewellery (Mark of the Elder + Shaper opal/diamond ring).

Get a pair of 70+ life & 3x 35+ res boots. This will allow you to drop all your resistance jewels, and get actual DPS ones. Here's how your jewel specific search should look like:



Play around with the count numbers on filter groups, until you find something you can afford.

There's probably still more you can do, but I've already spent like 30 minutes writing this, and that's just the stuff I caught at first sight.

is it worth it to save up for a double abyss slot tombfist or using the 1 good enough?

Cap your resistances. The PoB is just a theoretical showoff.
