Identified gaps

Elemental resistances

Fire 54%/75%, Lightning 22%/75% below current cap.

The further elemental resistances are below the current cap, the more dangerous hard map and boss hits become.

Primary damage

9.6K is well below the usual 29.8K–150K range for similar builds.

This usually means boss phases take too long or rares live long enough to pressure your defenses.

Secondary damage

9K is well below the usual 19.2K–77.7K range for similar builds.

This usually means boss phases take too long or rares live long enough to pressure your defenses.

Elemental max hit

7.3K is well below the usual 13.7K–30.2K range for similar builds. Improve life, energy shield, ward, block, and maximum fire resistance for larger elemental hits.

This usually means large hits are the danger point, even if clearing trash feels fine.

Movement speed

126% is well 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

4.7K is below the usual 6.1K–16.4K range for similar builds. Improve chaos resistance, life, energy shield, and maximum chaos resistance where possible.

This usually means large hits are the danger point, even if clearing trash feels fine.
