Really enjoying the build! It's my first time playing with a channeling skill like scourge arrow. Never thought I could be so tanky as a ranger either.

I'm starting to struggle with dps and I'm not sure what the best upgrade would be for me. I'm almost lvl 87, still using 5L Death's Opus and Drillneck.

I want to buy Darkscorn but I don't have enough currency yet. I'm 10 watchstones in and haven't had an exalt drop :( Using Embalmer atm for gloves. Will upgrading to Fenumus' Weave add a lot to my dps? Maybe I should get despair on hit on a ring and just replace some resist items? I also saw you mention Dusktoe boots in a previous post.

I think switching to Darkscorn would also make me lose the DPS from additional arrows because of the scourge arrow mechanics. I might have to craft quiver for that too?

Currency is a big problem. This build also has a lot of items from crafting. I've never crafted any of my items before lol.

Overall, clear speed is insane even in T16s, but single target DPS is still lacking and boss fights have to be done really carefully.

Sirus (A5)/Shaper/Elder all downed in the last few hours with this build.

Current gear:

Looking forward to getting a helmet with +1 and to improving cluster jewels. Overall, clear speed is insane even in T16s, but single target DPS is still lacking and boss fights have to be done really carefully.

Some of your current gear can be made better by harvest crafting.
For example your helmet. There is a tier 1 seed craft which removes life mod. Use that on helm to remove that low life roll and craft better life yourself with crafting bench in your hideout.

Similarly do this for other rare items, you can remove lower rolled resistances/ defense mods etc and craft something else which you need.

If you don't have any currency,farm low tier maps which you feel comfortable with. Make your current gear better with harvest crafting. Or if you can't find right crafts there,buy cheap good rare items.

And get your uber lab done, ask someone help if you need. 4th node adds much DPS

Turdul, GenuineProdigy, All

Here is my recent gears and PoB for your reference.

+ 1.5M mob DPS after taking Master Toxicist, 4.85K HP
+ Use Quartz flask for map and Overflowing chalice for boss.

TL;DR:
1) Enduring mana flask with +20% all elemental resistance for two purpose:
+ Guarantee we will not get mana-blocked when we consistently channel 5-stage SA (for maximized DPS).
+ hot-fix resistance (this mana flask has 100% uptime, so feel free to abuse it). Once I can cap my resist with gears, I will switch to an attack-speed enduring mana flask as below:

2) Use Voltaxic Rift instead of Death's Opus, either with Stormcharger or Duskblight (the latter seems better with DPS and clear, so Duskblight). Equip a ring with despair curse on hit.

3) Your hit chance should be above 95%.

4) Unpredictable Offensive (stun avoidance) until you have Cinderswallow with stun avoidance (expensive). I shamelessly stole this idea from whiteyfang.

5) 6-link your SA with a cheap corrupted 6-link chest with right colors.

7) Start crafting medium flask cluster + small cluster (enduring composure) first.

Thank you for the suggestions as for the uber lab. It's less about finding help, but more about finding the last trial to access it.
