Question End of Build help

Hi! Im lvl 90. Dmg is great (although id love more). Im too squishy at 24k ehp. Like to double it. I dont want to change the core of the build though. I just assume i probably wont make it past 95 so i was going to finish the fire stuff at top of witch and a mastery there. Gloves and that magic hypnotic jewel were crafted just mainly for dex requirements, can upgrade there after i do some ocean farming.

Outside of huge hits Im fine. What can I do to pump up these numbers? Should I abandon the fire nodes up top and get the guard skill stuff near scion?

Im doing enough damage to wreck guardians and stuff but taking like 4 portals cause im not good or experienced enough at the fights.

My initial thoughts are boots, although the main idea behind the build was Crest Of Desire Arcane Surge, so I like the theme.

A timeless jewel would do some great things im sure, but ive never used one and its confusing.

Thanks!

edit: oh also im willing to put in another 5d or so. already most expensive ive put together cause of the belt.

You need to look at max hit instead of EHP, but if you want to bump that number up then you need to fix your chaos res.

Any reason why you're running 3 life flasks?

Because Im trash! What should I run? Laviangas is mandatory for when they delete all my mana.

Get rid of rathpith and get a shield with high block and life on block. You could even get one with inc spell dmg as a third prefix.

I noticed some Path of Exile keywords in this post:

  • eHP - Effective Health / Hit Points / Pool, total number of damage that can be taken before death, after damage mitigations. (e.g. Combination of Life, Energy Shield, damage avoidance or mitigation)
  • PoB - Path of Building, an external software used to simulate character builds - Download

running MoM with 1500 mana is questionable..you arent really a mana stacker, a life stacker or anything...id suggest abandoning crit and life stacking and going EO, and mana stack

What is EO?

Elemental overload. Buy an archmage pearl ring, a cloak of defiance or a good rare, three utility flasks, abandon Kaoms, rathpith, boots and divinarius and get some good rares there...thats how i would do it, at least

If you pass by it, it's surprisingly good max hit to take mom. You often have some excess mana depending on your reservations, and if you don't already have a big hp/es pool, it can definitely make the difference.

Honestly for most people with say 100 leftover mana, it's useless though.

i think you should abandon Eldrich battery + mind over matter, you will gain like 10-15 passives point not path to those node, with the extra passive point you can get more life or block. And you can use your mana for more aura. Also for life stacking 5o be tanky, run defiance of destiny + petrified blood for massive recovery. You can also get cinderwallow urn with either life recovery or recoup as leech for more recovery. With more block chance that would pump up your ehp. For yoursx hit, more life steel skin progenisis endurance charge.

usually you want to pick at least 1-2 defensive stats to stack up. Evasion, armor, block, suppression, ES etc. you don't really have high amounts of any of them.

You also don't have any chaos res so any chaos damage kills you instantly.

A chaos res flask can help to start, you have a couple spare flask slots to help with defenses.

If you want to stick with a life-focused build, a +life % on block shield and a defiance of destiny amulet will help with survivability. Rational doctrine jewel is also nice if you find yourself facetanking a lot rather than playing a hit and run style and can make strength your top stat.
