Very nice build indeed, but it seems that I missed something big but I can't find it.
I lack damage and with this also some defenses.

Could someone take a look at my Character and maybe help me and point me to my fault?

Well for a start you can switch from two 5-link to two 6-link by not running 2 lightning pen in storm brand and and 2 added lightning damage in HoT :D

Well thanks and I'm stupid ^^

Can someone explain how do you generate frenzy charges with this build? I have a Inpulsa and badge of the brotherhood, so i dont have the chance to get freeze on chest. I need another way to proc the frenzy charges.

Cold snap in your CWDT setup will get you sorted when it comes to mapping.

I need help with this build. I've spend quite a lot in this, but getting often clapped by random mobs is really annoying (to the point where i consider to sell everything) and i wonder how to make this build more tough, like the ones i see on youtube where ppl are facetanking conquerors or similar.

You have low level, low life rolls on your items and no ES rolls on your items. I believe this results in you having just below 4K Hp and probably below 1.6K ES, and negative chaos res. With such numbers you have no chance at surviving high tier maps with bad mods or legion encounters.

I would start by leveling by speedrunning yellow maps or heists contracts or charged/enriched breachstones (or whatever thing in which you don't die). Levels will give you flat life and points to spend in life or ES nodes and life/ES jewels. When I had your level of gears, I bought 30 life + 30 ES + chaos res jewels. 7% life jewels with chaos res are good too.

While your amulette gives you damage, it brings nothing else. I completely skipped it and directly awakened a +1 intel and +1 skill amulet. It's more damage and a chance at having some life/resistances.

Also about ES sustain: right now you stack Storm drinker, energy leech support and Heart of Thunder but all of this is literally useless. You reach the maximum recovery cap, which is 10% of your max ES, with just energy leech. The way to increase this cap is to get a higher ES pool and to get increased maximum recovery. For the higher ES pool you can get it by anointing Foresight or rather Consitution (life = ES thanks to Timeless jewel). For higher maximum recovery use Divergent Energy leech support.
If you wonder why you sustain life better with just Doryani's notable, it's because the max recovery cap for life is 20% of your max life (so double of that of ES) and you have a higher health pool.

You said you "spent quite a lot in this", and while it is true, this builds needs a lot of currency to feel good. It's basically a kill things before they see you build. We don't have many defenseive layers. Now that I have 4.5 K life, 3.7 ES and 60+ chaos res I feel fine but I still fear some very bad map mods combination and legion encounters. And I added Anomalous artic armor with enhance lvl 4 to get phys dmg reduction, fire damage reduction and permanently freeze map bosses, and balanced resist to get less damage from all elemental sources thanks to the wise oak flask. These two addition gives nice % damage reduction and bring necessary level of mitigations for this glass canon build. To add artic armor (or aspect of the spider) you need a 30% reservation enchant or a 20% reservation enchant + unatural instinc in the witch jewel socket (just for mana concerns).

So, while you have a clear path (get level and more life, ES and recovery, then add mitigation sources) it will ask quite some more currency to do so. While you say you have invested a lot already, I say you just invested the minimal amount to play the build in a ok-ish state.

Thanks for the reply and tips. I think that i will try something else instead anyways

Loving the build so far, trying to path out where to spend currency next to take the character to the next level. Anything obvious I am missing? I guess enchanted helm with +1 power charge would be nice, anything else for raw throughput?

- Storm's gift with elemental weakness on hit corrupt - ~8ex
- Bottled faith - ~25ex
- Helmet with +1 power charges and -9 ele res to nearby enemies, HoT damage/nmanares enchant would be great too - 15ex
- Staff with +1 power charges, +17% inc dmg per power charge and atleast 15% lightning damage as extra chaos damage (+ ideally ele/lightning pen or +% increased lightning damage)
- At this point I'd swap to The Ephemeral Bond - TONS of extra damage
- Explo chest with gain power charges on hit and good life roll - 25ex ?
- Tailwind boots - ~10-20 ex

Also, for really, REALLY fast mapping, 2x inspired learning + replica headhunter works really good on somewhat low budget (replica HH is like 17 ex)

EDIT: If you do not have Awakened added lightning damage lvl 5, get is ASAP, it's dirt cheap for what it gives you. Similiar with Awakened lightning pen lvl 5.

Liking the build so far for any improvements shoot away i want to min-max this build
