Your profile is set to private, so nobody can see your characters.

In general though, you want to get enough total Energy Shield + Life to eat a few hits. I'm doing fine at T10 maps now, with about 4.8kES and 2.5k HP. I haven't taken Chaos Inoculation yet. I think 5.5k ES is a good point to take it. If you take it too early, you just hurt your total health.

Defense in part comes from curses reducing enemy speed, attack rate, damage, and critical chance. High Energy Shield + the drain from Bane should let you take a few hits without trouble. Blight totems help distract some enemies as well. The biggest and best defense is to just keep moving. That's where this build shines. You don't need to stop for more than a brief instant every few seconds, giving you the chance to dodge everything, where most builds have to sit around and spam attacks.

The big thing you're missing there is Temporal Chains curse. It's a big deal for defense because it slows everything down.

The cheap way to deliver curses for defense is the Heretic's Veil unique. You can pick one up for cheap. It has about 200 ES, and built in Blasphemy lv 22 with +1 level to curses and a reduction to mana reservation. Stick Temporal Chains and Enfeeble into that. It's the best way to do blasphemy and what I'm using currently.

You're missing a Wither/Blight totem. Linking Wither with Totem support gives you something to distract dangerous yellows with, while also boosting your damage against them. There is a unique jewel you can socket that adds Wither to Blight. There is no point in sitting around casting blight or wither yourself though. That would just be dangerous. Use the totem, or don't bother with blight IMO.

You're using Contagion in a 5-link, which is a waste honestly. Contagion does very little damage compared to Essence Drain or Bane. You can just do it as a 2 link with Increased Area of Effect (if desires). Contagion is merely for spreading Essence Drain. It doesn't need to do damage. If you free up that 5 link, you can use it for Bane, which is extremely amazing in many ways. Link Bane with Temporal Chains, Enfeeble, Despair, with that extra link for a damage or area boost (I like Efficacy). Bane does roughly half the damage of Essence Drain (tooltip doesn't show the +more damage from each curse, so don't trust it. It does a lot more damage than it shows. Use Path of Building to see). Bane also stacks with Essence Drain and delivers curses at a distance. The absolute best thing though, Bane is a quick one-hit-wonder for mapping, letting you instantly pop most trash without having to stop for the Contagion+ED combo. I really love it for that, and lets you be more mobile, avoiding hits that stopping for Contagion+ED might cause you to eat. I generally just circle bosses alternating ED, Bane, and Blight Totem. I rarely get hit at all and the bosses just melt. I love it.

Of course, eventually for the optimal DPS, you have to choose between Bane or Contagion, so you can get in Vaal Righteous Fire and such like the Queen of Chaos builds call for. Giving how amazing Contagion is for Legion though, I plan on just keeping all three (Essence Drain, Bane, and Contagion). Maybe I'm dumb.
