I will never be good at PoE

easy on the mind and easy to control

-I avoid situational temporary effects that require timing, a good example is "immortal call", it requires endurances charges which have a short lifetime and it as itself a very short duration, so it needs to be used precisely
-the only exception is flasks and I use them as a "panic button", when I lose a lot of health I mash all 5 keys at the same time, I find having to know what specific flask to use at what time too hard to do
-I avoid Vaal skills too since they also require very precise use
-I always go towards "blood magic" because I don't want to pay attention to mana levels and/or use mana flasks, I though several times to use mana as life with "Mind Over matter" while having both life and mana leech but I've never actually made a build

-I do "study" unique items to try and come up with builds but the way usually "professionals" use certain abilities is not the way I would think of using them

my setups usually consists of only this
-1 attack skill
-1 movement skill
-portal gem
-cast when damage taken spell that curse enemies on hit
-auras
-trigger skills if melee

Just as a note.

For the Romira's Banquet perma-charges version: you may also want to look at a dirt-cheap amulet nobody else wants: The Aylardex.

Gives 1% Mind Over Matter and 10% mana regen rate per power charge, as well as +1 power charges. Not huge, or something you should mega-prioritize over an amulet with spell damage and life/resists if you can get one, but a nice booster that comes with both life and mana itself. Was digging through the wiki idly theorycrafting a Void Battery version of the Romira Heirophant, and this struck me as being quite useful for a dual-leeching MOM-centric Heirophant build stacking charges all over the place. Good way to make your power charges work for you as well, given that their normal effect (increased crit chance) is sorta totally worthless here.

Obviously dual-wielding Void Batteries with an Aylardex and charges in the tree would be total beast mode, but I don't have ten exalts for that set-up...

If you're looking for a build to try I'd suggest Tornado shot, very easy to use. It does often go crit though, dunno why you're averse to that. The sound of Tornado shot Crit Shattering an entire pack is so satisfying. If you grab the attack mana leech nodes on the bottom right of the tree you don't need to worry about mana flasks either. Vaal skills on the build are good but not required(situational booster for map boss)

EDIT - Anyhow, I'm caught up on the whole thread now, looks like you're pretty sorted, some good advice has been given, pretty much disregard my suggestion.

Good luck on your build. It looks like a good one.
