Swap you gems around, use your helm for "attacks" instead of spells. For example, switch your shield charge link to your helm, it should work fine. Get 3 sockets of your shield. I personally self cast Frostbomb since come a certain point, the only valuable defensive thing become Enfeeble on a CWDT setup but since you don't use Yoke of suffering, I won't go into details.
You're using a Wiseoak however, do some basic Maths before buying gears to try and balance elemental resistance so that they're all equal for a huge non-tooltip damage boost when you use wiseoak. So consider this whilst shopping for a Yoke of suffering which has resist to all 3 elements. I'm not going to explain why Yoke is great, I've already made tons of post and videos about it.
Also Dude, you got to be smart about what you buy, don't just buy a helmet as you did then realise you fucked up your resistances, that ain't how you shop, do some maths first. Same deal with the belt, ilvl 86 is great and all but doesn't really mean jackshit for us...the reason people get ilvl 86 stygian belts is to craft and crafting IS expensive and on top of that the only mod you want from an ilvl 86 stygian belt is "50% elemental damage with attack skill" which doesn't work for us in the first place. I'm unsure who told you to get that ilvl 86 belt but you could have spent less on an already well rolled high health, mid to high single or dual resist stygian vise rather than chaos spam.
Hey Shadow, have you considered making your own build guide ? Rather curious to see how you did your setup. Really like your build and the videos.
Hi guys,
Can you pls check out my character and tell me how should I improve it? I have 10ex, and i was thinking maybe i get a shapper dagger, but good dagger with 2xT1 “gain % of phys” is more than 10 ex already. Also i wanted to ditch 2 long winters and get dps jewels but then i would lose conversion, and if i get helmet with 40% conversion i’d lose the additional mine. Please tell me what would be the best way to improve my character based on my budget? Thank you in advance.

Well 2x T2 or 1x T1/1x T2 is still better than yours and costs around 50c-5ex. Yours is a 20-50c dagger at best so it shouldn't be a problem finding an upgrade. You could always try to get the enchant yourself, gc mines work very well in uber lab atm. Or you could buy a shaper base with the enchant and try to roll additional mine, not sure what that costs. Also, link your helmet? It looks like you haven't got faster attacks into shield charge.

omfg, you’re right, that explains why it was so fucking slow, I’ve been shield charging without faster attack whole time. Good call my dude :)

yeah most of my gears are mediocre at best, I was just not sure where to begin. I’ll upgrade my dagger first then, thank you for advice. About running lab myself, that’s a good idea but i play on a shitty laptop, so it makes izaro fight and traps much more difficult.

I've been asked to by a lot of people in game to do so. I just can't be bothered doing so as it's just a variation from Windz with a min-maxing perspective and I can't be bothered managing a whole thread lol.

If you want to send me a mini guide of your variation id be more than happy to have a section in the guide. Pob, videos, and some explanation of gear choices etc.
Still looking for some gear improvements to make the uber elder fight more smooth,
I have the faster ES recharge watcher's eye. Can't see any major improvements in gear right now that would actually be worthwhile.
Balance your resist and use a wise oak. Should be better mitigation and damage than Taste of Hate.
Ditch the Dagger and get a better one with with least 25% ias on there, this should help you with the movement issues you've been having in uber elder fight. Sadly you can only craft up to like 15% via Vagan on there. Or essence of insanity a caster glove and pray for high life and an open suffix for ias. Resistance can be balanced a lot of ways.
Switched from BHC to BSC for completing 36 challenges and trying uber elder if possible. Therefore, I chose this build and have the following gear so far:
I know that I still need to get my gems to 20/20 and GC to 21/20. I am running 2 long winter jewels and my resis are even for wise oak. When I am done with leveling the gems I want to try shaper, uber atziri, all red maps, red elder etc.
Is there anything I really need to improve on?
I don't know if I will get the currency necessary for switching to LL but my final goal will be uber elder (if I manage to get him spawned).
Thank you for your help
