T15 map Bosses still murdering us

Hi!

This is so stupid, some T15 Map bosses still murdering us, no chance to survive 1 second there.
However trying to keep distance or doge, they jump, rush on me without any chance to keep standing up.
L93 Oracle Druid with max resses, 1.5K Life, 5.1K ES.

Are you running pure ES? If you are, 5k ES is still extremely low. 8k is what you need to not feel like you're always getting 1shot, anything higher than that is to feel comfortable.

You may need to invest in some stronger gear, or swap out some damage passives for more ES nodes.

If you haven't already and aren't running low life, you should grab Chaos Inoculation passive to make yourself immune to bleed and chaos damage. Bleed and poison will tear through your 1.5k life like it's nothing.

Don't forget to also pick up recharge delay and recharge rate passives. They are incredibly important for survivability.

You're level 93 with 5k ES, what are you waiting for?
The minimum, as a friend mentioned, is 8k, and you switch to CI to become immune to Chaos and Bleed.
5k isn't high, but it should be fine in Maps.

Unless you not look at Map mods that can have like two extra elemental damage mods with ele pen.

Even ele pen mod alone cuts your survivability by a lot, especially in juiced map with high modifier effects.
If you have map with 25% ele pen, it literally cuts your survivability in half assuming you have 75% res. That's not counting other mods.

Last few days tried with more ES, this is the version where I picked up those Passive nodes at L93, will try to reach around 8K, but not seen much improve from gear yet, those are several hundred Divines, which improves just some. Some more Energy Shield node I can get to cut off damage ones.
CI is far away, not there.
Mainly those (almost impossible) jumps and rushes killing me, how can damage them if running and dodging from those? Tried last time, could hardly did any damage.
Will look for those Elemental Penetrations, thank you the tips.

That Remembrancing 7894 songworthy deeds by the line of Vorana Heroic Tragedy - Timeless Jewel really giving a lot more (double) Energy Shield if put the right slot as Rax's video showed, worth to hunt for them?
Others in general chat told it is all random for each player.

At this point it has to be your passive tree.

My hybrid armour/ES storm has 12k ES

So I dont know how someone with pure ES would struggle to get 8k


Looking at your ninja, all I see are two standard characters.


Stuff will be expensive on standard. Is this all you have or do you have a league character?


You said oracle druid in the OP so you must have that. Update your ninja

Lower the map boss levels to 0 the drops are not worth the deaths, and map bosses rarely drop good items anyway.

Unless you want boss exp no benefit, and a smoother map run.
P.S

I am a Dog and i will just drop my load and leave on to the next post
Have updated the poe2 ninja profile, think you can found him here.

Working on to build some temple, but only 6 rooms managed to chain, rarely got the right rooms.

Started 0.4 season only 2-3 weeks ago, played with Paladin in D4 at start, it was my main in Wow, so tried the new class. I know had been quite optimistic to go for the Palm of the Dream scepter build, but thought why invest for a different when sometime will follow it anyway. Got a boost from L77 -> L90 in one high level temple, did not know it gave me so much XP.

Trying to improve ES now, Amulet instill my plan with Patient Barrier.

Main reason doing T15 maps with 6 mods to get quicker Crystals for Temple as I am way behind there. Need to kill Bosses to get the Map Complete, for more Atlas point progress too?

Yea op.... your build is like...


Full glass nearly. You flat out dont have life rolls on many pieces of gear, but you dont run CI.

ie
Both rings
Amulet which doesnt have % ES either
Running HH
Running Vertex


You only grab 2 energy shield clusters....
Both your jewels have low ES rolls
Heart of the well has no ES roll

Running a wand scepter combo instead of a wand focus...

Vertex lol.... with +3 haha. As if that is needed.


You just have way too much damage from what I can tell. Your items and tree are all offensive based.

Mash the clean
Put Barrier Instill on Amulet, picked up Enhanced barrier nodes, CI is quite far away, and mostly Main stat nodes on the way there.
With Scepter and vertex got more Chaos Resist, so not thought to go for it.
That +3 vertex (not got Orbs for +4 yet) improving sheet damage from 48K to 75K, it seems a big improve. Can get more ES there however.
In general items I could grab so far that was possible with current Orbs.

Which ES nodes you can suggest to use more? Currently around 7.3K ES with changes. Seen some ES/Armor nodes, since having 0 Armor, not sure if worth picking them up. Which damage nodes less important you think to loose out.
