character: _The_Trap_Is_A_Lie_

I am a bit lost how i should improve from here:
Mainly i dont really know how and where i should improve my damage, without giving up too much of my defenses.
so far i have been following the high end PoB mostly; though i only have 1 cluster jewel allocated yet and on the far right of the tree i took the ES on boots note instead of the jewel socket (mostly because my boots are a massive ES boost);

even though i have the +2 shav's, the watchers eye, and so on, my PoB cant seem to get over around 2.3mil DPS for a cluster of 3x trap.

Any advice how and where i should be focusing to get the DPS up and dont lose too much defense ?
thank you in advance and much appreciated

Remember to read my responses here to other guys also (for everyone), as many times they're somewhat equal to one another ;P for example where is your added fire dmg to spells? for explosives expert that you picked its a big chunk of dps.

About your focus on being tanky, let me quote a comment from YT:
It's easy to forget just how much damage Scourge do once you get stacks. Monsters do 30% more damage in 100% Delirious maps, which are still considered "juice". That same increase is only 30 stacks of Scourge. At 160+ scourge stacks, you're essentially running a 530-ish% Delirious map in terms of incoming damage, think about it.

I'd almost say you've gone too tanky, since you don't have the 2nd cluster even though you're running the end-game tree. A lot of players are going extremely tanky this league due to how Scourge works, almost too tanky since it's extremely unlike to expect any build to survive the dmg increase of 200+ scourge stacks (I'm actually able to farm atm 250+ stacks but it costs me some dps) ... But I highly doubt GGG will make another league with similarly broken monster damage again anytime soon, so i wouldn't change the core of the build too much to only focus towards being more tanky.

Comment and example: (thx Zizaran ^^)

Now for your damage, fix the explosives expert, look at my abyss jewel as example.

Level up your awakened gems, specially the added lightning as it gives +1 at lvl 5. (you can also buy facetor's lens to boost gems quick)

Why do you have a hybrid flask? if for any reason your mana sustain lacks, then instead get a prefix enchant on a ring for -mana cost non-channel.

You're missing a big chunk of DPS from not having lightning ulab enchant on your boots.

You have no throwing speed on gloves or belt, again a lot of damage missing.

If you just want an instant very expensive but big boost dps and currency, bottled faith is like a "cheat code" item.

For belt and gloves im still trying to get some better rolls to include the trowing speed, but i didnt have much currency to spend on crafting at the moment.
to be honest; having sin track is a huge ES boost, especially with the corrupted implicit (1K ES with these boots), but the Dex req. doesnt make it easier :)

You could buy sin trek with lab enchant and then use any random dex-heavy item to equip sin-trek. Since sin-trek provide 30dex themselves, you don't need to have 117, but 87. (equip temporary dex heavy item, then equip boots, they add +30, so u take off the dex-item u equipped)

I would drop the boots and get a pair of sorcerers with lightning enchant.
You can buy non-crafted ilvl 86 sorcerer boots with ulab lightning enchant for 15c, then craft them with alteration spam or dense fossils.

For belt, just spam dense and when you get good ES prefixes, aim to have an open suffix to add trap throwing speed via bench craft.

It is VERY expensive to get above 180 ES with dense fossil spamming. I have been trying.

I just did Sirus for the first time ever so the build is going well,I am just looking for good boots (all 180 ES 30MS double Res boots are 5ex+) and double res es stygian (so I can go explosives expert) but upgrades are starting to get into the multiple EX range and I only have about 4 ex if I sold my ENTIRE stash.

Looking forward to trying the endgame tree but sheesh, I am just trying to get my belt and boots before I start buying clusters and switch but they are turning out to be a real struggle.

Hi, I'm trying this build out. I'm sort of confused which guide is updated since there's a ton of versions on the first page of this forum post. Thank you very much!
