Hi, I've been playing this build as league starter. I've gathered around 30 ex so I'm just curious, if it would make any difference in case of updating the build, or should I keep saving for other build. I feel pretty comfortable doing T16 maps with influence, and some bosses. However it seems to struggle with Maven witnessed double shaper/elder bosses, and can't get past wave 20 in simulacrum. I know that wand is not best tho, but not sure if going for +1 +1 would ame that huge difference. I would appreciate If you could take a look at my tree and give any feedback on it.
POB:

Should state what aspect you are struggling with, lack of damage or surviving
21 gems and quality your gems as its not a super expensive upgrade in trade and some awakened gems if you have the budget.
+1 +1 wand is pricey but it does bump up damage a fair bit especially if you can get the cold dot multi on there as well

You also have room for improvement on gloves and boots, hunter gloves with cold dot multi will be a boost.
Also the new eldritch currency that adds implicit s to items has one that gives cold dot multi, paired with the one that gives 3% damage per 100 intelligence can also provide a dps boost if you have the currency.
Dont know if you can get hunter gloves with cold dot multi then eldritch currency the other cold dot multi on as well

Looking at your passive tree I see you have no cluster jewels, if you get the ones specced out in the pob for this build they provide a big boost to dps
Also grabbing some defense nodes for more armour and stuff will help if you are having issues surviving

Finally done, 88% all ele res + Aegis Aurora tank video showcase and POB (in description). I'm doing triple Cold DOT (CF, Vortex & CS) but you can adapt it to WTB quite easily. Cheers everyone!

Yes, I’ve done this since 3.16 but had trouble with spells and DOT. 88% all ele res solves most of the spell issue but DOT from crazy bosses can still kill because then you won’t be getting high ES regen from block so be careful there. I love tanky builds so much 😁

@hadc

I noticed in your POB that your Shav's is socketed curse gems & reduced chaos damage taken. I'm assuming you're using it for the reduced chaos damage?...

I am trying to craft the Vortex helmet. I've failed 4 times now on the Awakener's Orb. It just won't leave an empty suffix and I've failed annuling it every single time. For some reason the odds of not rolling an extra suffix are abysmal. I feel like shit.

No, I just grabbed the cheapest 6L Shav on the market. That was day 3 or 4 of the league, beggar can’t be chooser LOL

LOL OK I shall go path of beggar as well :)

Edit:

10EX for the fractured wand
Spammed lots of essences can't hit +1 spell at all

Bought some shuddering fossils and used:
Corroded + Jagged + Metallic + Shuddering
Hit +1 Spell on 2nd try

Multicraft or craft Cold DoT multiplier and then Aspect of Spider, then YOLO exalted orb?
