Need help with Manaforged setup.

Got really stuck with pumping up DPS. I want at least 5 mil to comfortably farm Deli without sacrificing too much defences.
Current Divs to spare ~8.

Advice is much appreciated.

I did it on deadeye, not sabo, but looking at my setup may help you. One quick easy change I'd make is to drop the taste for blood wheel and move those points into depth perception. Your accuracy is pretty low, and you already have leech and instant leech from clever thief and the mastery. Depth perception gives you slightly more crit, but more importantly caps your accuracy.

Not having maxed accurracy really hurts any crit build. Having blind helps, but you still need a bit more than what you have.

You also shouldn't need the lifetap setup with all the -cost you have on jewelry. Could probably drop the lifetap links for an actual damage support.

Your pob is set to normal mobs, when set to pinnacle/bosses you're looking at 1.89m dps.

One of your gem setups costs too much mana which meant it was only triggering half the time. Lifetap isn't necessary, use inspiration. Changing the gem setup and tree helped fix the trigger rate and accuracy helped a lot.

Maybe try to find better jewelry to try to fix resistances so you don't need so much on the quiver. A primal arrow quiver/elemental damage implicit yields the most damage. Additional arrow helps a lot with clear, would recommend aiming for that. Highest damage mod would be crit multi, with flat ele, proj speed, bow damage, ele damage all giving solid dps. Don't bother with attack speed as it's only useful for blink arrow.

Crucible mods that will increase damage somewhat significantly are: added flat lightning and 10% crit, reduced attack speed with chance to deal double damage or +crit, increased explicit elemental damage modifiers, and reduced skill effect duraction with increased cooldown recovery. Each of those can get you anywhere between 10-15% dps

New pob: https://pobb.in/tjaySiJVPxYt. Different gem setup and slightly changed tree to fix accuracy. New quiver with life, bow damage, additional arrow, craft ele damage shouldn't be that expensive. Doesn't change much in damage compared to the quiver you have, but you get a an extra arrow which is really nice for clear. Added reduced skill effect duration/increased cooldown recovery crucible node to the bow instead of what you have. This gets you 4.16m dps.

Every additional crucible node that I mentioned would net you another 10-15% dmg.

Not sure how storm rain damage is calculated but it looks a bit underwhelming without very specific investment. Blast rain should be better for single target.

Thanks guys, you helped a lot.

Did some tweaking and now I am at 4 mil on Pinnacle bosses and 5.2 mil on normal mobs, and that's without swapping a quiver, still looking for it for a decent price - all of my Divs went to get a bow.
Got rid of Lightning Coil as well, now use Queen of the Forest so now I can:
1) change amulet and quiver without uncapping res;
2) drop Purity and get Anger (probably?) for even more damage.

Still need 1 Lifetap to get Adrenaline and Onslaught from gloves.
Upd. I am dumbass, I have Life mastery for this. Will fix that 0_o

Just realised I don't need Silver Flask anymore, probably would go with Jade.

I am not sure about mana costs though, is there any more ways to optimize?

Also got https://pathofexile.fandom.com/wiki/Natural_Hierarchy with 25% Damage implicit, seems legit tbh.
