Guys, im stuck a little bit, was playing around with build, testing as in topic and moving to current build that Enki have right now. I suffer a little bit of survivability. Sometimes i die 2-3 shots, almost unable to safely pass maps t10+, really hard to climb lvl90+. + maybe i made some crucial mistakes in build (im relatively new). Budget of improvements for this moment is 1ex max(+-50c) if you have advice about, or what to aim first for now. Thank you very much any case.

not enough life for lvl 90
0 life on helmet, 0 life on amulet, a lot of crafted life on other things, half of jewels are missing life too. And you probably want more mana too once you get to 5k+ life.
Budget is pretty low, it's not gonna be easy to fix. But you can start working in this direction.
And maybe you need more active playstyle too, it usually hepls a lot. 2-3 casts - move - 2-3 casts - move
p.s. nice amount of chaos res, I like it

Thanks alot for any tips, and the work you put in this build you are the best man.

Stibnite flask is bad for this build (use Basalt instead) and you don't have any freeze removal on flasks.
Your CWDT gem links are a bit all over the place. I would stick to the set-up in the guide and you no longer need Clarity with Watcher's Eye leech unless running no leech maps. Decoy totem can't be used with CWDT and Decoy is fairly underrated for this build as it absorbs a lot of damage allowing for constant DPS on bosses until re-cast. Keep leveling it up to your STR level without needing more STR (de-level as needed when removing STR gear).
You've taken 3 extra mana keystones and missing the Celestial triangle DPS because of it. The penetration and increased shock effect is very deceiving with the in-game tooltip.
Save for Clear Mind and lookout for boots with better HP/resists to be lab enchanted (or already enchanted if you hate lab like me). For bosses, penetration or flat damage enchant will add quite a lot of damage and can make-up the resists elsewhere.
Personally, I like more chaos resists than Purity and Atziri this league, but matter of opinion.

Hey Enki could you look over my Character I love to play this Build maybe you can give me some little advices or what i can /have to improve next to get some steps further :D
THX

Not sure how the helm craft works, but it might make Cold Snap too high and not trigger with CWDT? I'd find a different one because it isn't that great.
No freeze removal flask. Upgrade your mana flask.
You're missing 3 skill points. 2 if you chose the wrong Bandits and 1 from passive quest. Use some HP and the missing points to finish Purity of Flesh wheel.
Move 2 spell crit to Lord of the Dead, +25% damage.
Upgrade gloves for more resists, preferred with Fingerless, Minion craft, or Shaped atk/cast speed.
More life and possibly resists on boots opens up slot for lab enchant (pre-enchanted or not).
Relieving resist requirements will allow easier time to buy 6L rare armor (eventually want no resists needed on armor for Inpulsa).
Could not see any cold damage to spells on gear. Swap a jewel or ring craft otherwise Hypothermia is less effective and only working while chill buffs are up.
And then eventually start working into Shaped weapons for big flat damage increase. Oh, and use spare weapons to level 2nd set of gems for level 21 gems. Arc is fairly cheap, others are more expensive.

Hi I'm a noob to poe

Watch the videos and see how inconsistent the numbers are for yourself. Yes, Arc has a huge damage range, but we are also firing Arc twice with Spell Echo and with lots of cast speed so it is rolling those numbers faster than you can even see what is going on. And with all of the chains and Inpulse explosions, it really evens out further. And the Vaal Arc lucky buff (if used) will roll the numbers twice and pick the higher number.

If the playstyle is still not for you, there are dozens of updated guides in every characters section to scroll through until you find the one that fits your need. Or if you're like me, pick a skill, Google that skill with the current patch, see that it is updated, and play it. Repeat as many times as needed every league.

What can i improve? What should be my main focus going from here? How should I move from here?

Your gear should be fine into white mapping. Rings will probably need upgrades when you get your final resist drop to get them back up to cap. Maybe craft resists on body armor?
Spiritual Aid should be your next big focus and getting that big 94% spell damage shift, more with bone helmet or other minion damage mods.
Farm maps, get loot, buy upgrades, push higher tiers, repeat.

How do I approach delving with this build? When I take a peek into "dark" branch of the road, invunerable minions hit me instantly and I cant hit them back because they are in darkness

Flares is the only way to kill stuff when random searching in Delves. I prefer just using the cart everywhere and then using the currency I get to buy stuff. I'm only at like level 17x and I've had 2 exalt drops, 2 delve boss loot sold for another 5 ex, and then all the random chaos orbs, maps, etc so probably close to 8 ex this league from Delve. The only darkness searching I've done is to find the hidden rooms to cart to and there are guides for that (finding the path that it can branch off of and searching the darkness there for the wall to dynamite).

I'm currently using a Tabula Rasa, and can afford a 5L Inpulsa, but not quite at the point where I'd be able to 6L it.

How much of a damage loss would be looking at from losing the 6th link (Hypothermia or Added Lightning?), compared to what I'd gain from the explosions on Inpulsa? I assume it would be a bit of a wash on clear speed, but I'm concerned about boss damage loss, since T13+ bosses already feel like they die a little slower than I'd like.

Should I just keep the TR until I can afford a 6L Inpulsa?

Why do we not need 20 quality on Arc?! Looking here https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Vaal_Arc i see that quality effects the Shock duration not the chance to Shock, yet the guide states that quality is not important... Also the guide also says:

‣ If you find a Vaal Arc along the way, level it alongside with you to have it at an appropriate level once you reach endgame maps.

Am I missing something obvious? Which gem are we supposed to use end game? Isn't it Vaal Arc?

i want to change to daggers (leap slam sucks)

i have these 2 daggers which i found and bought cheap, does it suck? i can craft a suffix mod on both of them,

i am considering between,

1) 11-15% attack speed
2) 12-14% cast speed
3) 13-16% lightning damage

which is better? i could probably find a rank3 craft for %lightning.

or should i just ditch these 2 weapons coz they suck?

just craft cast on both and it's good enough
you can upgrade your other gear untill you can afford to craft t1/t1 extra chaos/penetration + crafted mods daggers
