In my opinion, you shouldn't focus on the staff. The 6-link there will only bring some improvements when you have an Enlighten lvl 3/4. It's going to take you a while to level your current gem.
You can get much more out of it by upgrading the rest of your gear.

I have already explained most of my decisions and how to upgrade gear a few pages back, but just a quick on-point suggestion: start by getting a 6L STR armor. Earthshatter benefits the most from having a 6l. The base costs like 7 chaos and then you just to dome essence spam to get lots of life.

P.S. Fix your flasks. You still have a normal-rarity one :)
P.S.S. Check your PoB. I think you benefit more from war banner than from blood sand, at this stage (in the weapon sockets)

That's a really terrible armor. The reason we use this essence

is for that amazing life roll.

You miss, basically, like 120 flat life. That's really huge.
Get the essence, apply it on the armor and hope for 1-2 rez rolls and armor. If you are not happy with the result, apply another one. Until you get a decent one. Ideally with an open affix so you can craft something that you miss.

Also, a huge improvement is to get 20% quality on all gems from the chest.

Good luck

This is what I'm working with.

It would be super cheap to upgrade your rings and amulet to get way more life and a steel ring with life. Also you are probably dying from elly damage since your max resists are capped pretty low. A 6L armor with 100+ life and some res and decent armor is less than 20 chaos and will make your damage much better. Those are the cheap things, Vulnerability on Hit corruption on Haemophilia is pretty important for damage in higher maps from what I've noticed, but that's pretty pricey.

I'm actually close to being able to afford a 6L non-replica version of the Loreweave. Should I buy that or try to get an armor that you're suggesting?




Also, I bought that ammy because of the crit strike and multi. I thought that this build really needed that.

I would buy Vuln on Hit before a 6L loreweave, it is a way bigger improvement on the build's feel. If you click my character BoomingButts you can see my gear, it's not the best and I haven't even bothered with jewels cause I'm lazy, but it works. My best advice is to bind enduring cry to your walk button so you cast it at the beginning of maps to get started with charges.

So I bound enduring cry on my walk and bought the gloves with Vuln...

Your advice has taken me to the next level. Amazing. I would have wasted all of my currency on a loreweave. Thanks.

Don't buy gloves with vuln. They are very expensive.
One pair of regular gloves costs 1 or 2 chaos (depending on your luck).
It takes, on avg, 20 to 25 corruptions to get the vulnerability implicit.

The total cost is around 50 chaos AND it's very likely you can see the corrupted gloves that didn't break for 1 chaos back. So, that's an investment of 25c and a bunch of jewler orbs and chroms and vaals.

Just make sure you get 4 sockets linked and right color(s) before you corrupt.

Also, replica is doing much harm to you than good. If you are close to affording a lorewave, do that. That's big for survive.

Remember you can buy just the cheapest non-corrupted 6l lorewave and spam a few divines (5-6c each) to get 78% rez (decent life/crit is nice, but not that important)
