I watch people with 5k life just tank uber atziri and mino etc.. and im over here getting fucking 1 shot by literally nothing over and over. could use some idea as to why

6.6k life 75 res and huge life steal apparently does nothing in this game

*my main skill is lacerate but im trying cyclone or something else to see if that works better

those builds mostly evade hits, have tons of more dps
meaning they kill most in a flask duration, aslong as it doesnt have phases

try get a feeling for the mechanics, check youtube vods of ur builds vs the above lised encounters
and see what they are doing.

i clear maps and trash fine, but a get cucked in most t15-16 bosses out of nowhere

and i literally cant get much more dmg since all decent 4 stats jewls are like fucking 6-8ex each >>

have live search running for jewels, and try snipe cheap ones.
ud be surprised that actually works, i speak of experience.

dont expect it to happen over night, but if ur patient
ull find some

and all i can say, is to compare ur gear with ppl who play the same build and to the content without issues
iam sure ull find some key things that ur missing

never played the build so cant tell u exactly what ur missing
check guides/leaderboards etc

Most Slayer build has probably less than 1500 armor, so you are not really suppose to take hits. Cyclone would be better choice since you are doing damage while moving meaning you can avoid being hit much more easier. You can take maybe 1-2 hits and than move out of the way and wait for your life to get back to full and go back in again and spin.

If you feel you want to play a facetank cyclone build, Berserker would be best because of Vaal Pact+Savage Hit proc = instant life leech 100%, meaning you basically will never die as long as you don't get one shot or stand in stupid degen mechanics.

This guy does Atziri with 1 life:

I like how he has life flasks

T15-16 bosses are supposed to be hard.
Also 4 stat jewels have to be godly to cost that much.

you gem setups dont make much sense either

/e and that tree..lol
