Hey enjoying the build.

Could need some advice on how to upgrade the build a little more.

https://pobb.in/xkIQ9_lVxI_W

I have pretty much 2 empty sockets. Lightning Golem dies all the time and on the chest setup idk what else to fit in there. Was thinking about to get rid of polaric but idk.

Appreciate the feedback

Hey. Glanced at the PoB.
You could indeed use a charm to get the enemies covered in ashes instead of polaric devastation, and get something better there then.

Hyrri's Ire is a a straight upgrade (minus the +1% max chaos res). Also you are not currently spell suppression capped !!! Get hyrri's whenever you can.

Lethel pride 12824 on duelist area instead of watcher's eye.
Then replace your Loath Sliver jewel with that watcher's eye.

There's something like a 20% damage improvement using a real flammability. BUT, this would probably mean remove culling strike (so "lose 10%" from low life enemies). Would allow to get a better ring too. (also accuracy on it would help a lot)

Lightning golem indeed becomes useless "late game" as it will just keep dying.
Remove the golems. I would tell you to get lifetap and enduring cry instead of these two, but considering your MB, not sure enduring cry would help a lot there.

I assume there's something with your auras (precision not 20 right now ?), as the mana reservation is negative on the PoB. Also you could get that enlighten 4 instead of 3.

The corvine charm is useless (or there's something i'm missing). Same with the inquisitor's ursine charm. So there is definitely room for charm upgrades. Unfortunetaly not playing the league, can't help you much (apart from the one i mentioned (chance to cover enemies in ash)

If you have a button that's not used right now (i would guess so), you could replace grace with vaal grace, to use the vaal skill as a panic button or something, sometimes.

Replace frenzy with blood rage, so you don't have to stop and fire some arrows as you'll "passively" get attack speed + chance for frenzy charge on kill.

IMPORTANT : REMOVE THE GLOVE EXPOSURE IMPLICIT ITS USELESS, YOU HAVE EE. Get something like accuracy implicit instead (you really need more accuracy)

IMPORTANT : YOU HAVE ADDED FIRE ON YOUR GLVOES. BURN THESE GLOVES AND BUY PROPER ONES :D (right now you would have to check the "enemy was hit by fire damage" box, and it really hurts a lot)
Spell suppression like the ones you have, but maybe attack speed, accuracy

Tree looks fine otherwise, there may be 2 points to remove from Ironwood if you can spare 2 physical adamage reduction points. Also the two points for widespread destruction are not the best (even heavy draw would be better allocation for these 2 points.
Let's say we now have 4 points available, what would i do... I suppose the best choice is weathered hunter nodes until you fix your accuracy.

Not going into flasks of belt, as your build relies heavily on these two things. Not going into the bow either as the improvement to a "regular bow" doesnt seem this significant due to the high (is that t2 ?) lightning damage modifier.

Hope this helps !

Just wanted to point out real quick that blood rage is good for mapping, but you'll still need Frenzy for bosses/single target if you're somewhere that you can't get kills for frenzy charges.

I'll probably check out ignite proliferation on gloves as well, hopefully it isn't too expensive

I also have an absurd amount of resistances besides chaos (-33% now), like 170% cold 120% fire 120% lightning or something like that that I need to lower in return for other stats haha...

For amulet annoints, is watchtowers recommended to save those 3 skill points or is something like deadly draw?

A few things that I saw quickly :

Put ignite prolif on gloves as soon as you can (eldritch implicit, not costly), so you can replace ignite prolif gem (burning damage).

Remove everything on the (palsterony/levelling) tree that's on the right of EE and anoint watchtowers indeed.
That's something like 20 points to reallocate (ideally some of them in cluster setup). Other suggestions meanwhile : Fire mastery exposure, Dirty Techniques, Heavy Draw, or even Farsight, Brutality, exceptional performance/duration dot mastery (considering the very low fuse count).

Re-cap your spell suppression (77 without right side of the tree) : magebane for 12%, and probably hyrri's ire chest armor. I think you're on a 4L chest right now, so the swap should only be a few chaos orbs.

I also suppose your main goal in terms of items if the bow craft. Something like 30%+ dps increase there.

Catalyst your belt to go from 35 to 42.

Polaric devastation depending on the price (note that people replace it for a charm with the covered in ash effect later on).

A devoto's helmet could help a bit with attack speed, chaos res, overall defences, at the cost of having to fix lightning res. For example, there's a +18% lightning res node for 1 point above Sentinel (you'll probably go for the jewel socket above later anyway)

You'll adapt your resists when upgrading gear/tree, dw.

(doing most of this, you're looking at 3x/4x your current output)

I can take a look tomorrow, but I just wanted to see if this might help you real quick. Are you aware of coloring sockets with jewelers via the crafting bench? It makes off colors for boots/gloves/helm very easy. Put 2 sockets on, then color them with the bench to the 2 off colors you want. Now go to 3 sockets and if you get the color you want, continue to 4 sockets. If you don't, go back to 2 sockets, then retry 3 and repeat going through 2-3-4 sockets until you get the colors you want. Sorry if this is something you were already aware of, but to me the only thing that's hard to off color is 2h weapons or body armour and I'm super poor.
