Thanks in advance!

The only thing that jumps out at me are your boots and their lack of movement speed increase. It really helps!

I've fallen madly&deeply in love with life on hit on my bow. I do not think I could survive without it (this is somewhat related to play-style). LoH bows with over 1k dps seem to be priced quite high tho'. Maybe look for bargains if you're in need of more survivability?

Thanks for the tips, LOH weapons are very expensive :/ I will try to save up for them.

As cost-prohibitive as LOH weapons are with high damage, I've switched out one of my skill slots for Shadow Power with Gloom rune. With the damage reduction and how quickly 20% life steal gets the job done, I've decided against the expense of accumulating LOH for more tangible improvements.

That said, you should see what happens when you get Caltrops + Jagged Spikes + LOH.

Two things I see:

(1) Your resists are kinda low; if you can find any of your gear with similar stats + (higher) all resist, that'd be an improvement. In fact, you could probably do better giving up a bit of dex (e.g., 50-100) in exchange for higher resists (300 resist ~ 50% reduction). [On a related note, INT is almost useless for anyone other than a Wizard/WD: 10 INT = 1 all resist!]

(2) The other thing to look for is crowd control effects: e.g., I have a belt with 3.9% chance to Freeze on Hit and an amulet with 4.0% chance to Blind on Hit. I'm fairly sure those can't stack (and stacking wouldn't help anyways), but it definitely helps.

I would look into finding some armor or a quiver that has some skill damage bonus (i.e. evasive fire on a cloak). You could also look to find a quiver with some discipline on it. Other than that, your resists could be a bit higher (300 ish is good) and the critical hit damage could always be higher. I would upgrade your helm first, then quiver, the cloak, and maybe a ring next.

I realised my cloak is crap, am changing it. looking to increase my resistance as well.
Thanks for the input!
