Identified gaps

Elemental resistances

Lightning 64%/75% below current cap.

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

Chaos max hit

2.5K is well below the usual 5.6K–15.6K 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.

Effective hit pool

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

Physical max hit

2.1K is well below the usual 3.9K–6.3K range for similar builds. Add armour, physical mitigation, block, life, and energy shield.

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

Elemental max hit

5.2K is well below the usual 9.7K–18.3K 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.
