Improve movement speed
fixStart with boots that have movement speed, then recheck clear feel after the character moves faster.
Justification
130% is below the usual 131%–175% range for similar builds.
Useful stats
Relevant stats for this issue
Prioritize this direction if mapping feels slow or repositioning feels clunky.
3
Improve chaos hit protection
fixUpgrade defensive slots with chaos resistance, armour, energy shield, and evasion so the item matches how this build actually survives.
Justification
6.9K is a little below the usual 6K–16.1K range for similar builds. Add chaos resistance and a larger life or energy shield pool where possible.
Useful stats
Relevant stats for this issue
Prioritize this direction before chasing smaller damage gains.
Identified gaps
Elemental resistances
Fire 68%/75% below current cap.
The further elemental resistances are below the current cap, the more dangerous hard map and boss hits become.
Movement speed
130% is below the usual 131%–175% range for similar builds.
Lower speed usually means slower map clear, worse repositioning, and less room to dodge boss mechanics.
Chaos max hit
6.9K is a little below the typical 10.4K reference for similar builds. Improve chaos resistance, life, energy shield, ward, and maximum chaos resistance where possible.
This usually means large hits are the danger point, even if clearing trash feels fine.
