I like this build, currently level 91. But now I’m having the problem that I’m just dying way too often, and the suggested gear upgrades, while not only quite expensive, would make me even less tanky, like the skin of lords or the belt, or even the helmet. How do I die less or is there a way to build/play this to be more tanky?
Edit: my budget is around 3 div and 300c

Skin of the Lords will cause you to be more tanky. The EV and AR boost is huge. It more than offsets the loss in life because so much incoming damage is mitigated.

Looking at the character in your profile, you are missing quite a lot of evasion in general and recovery from the helmet. Phasing is also quite important, as it helps you to avoid a lot of hits from the monsters.

Defenses:
1. Buy Devouring Diadem - This helm is essential for this build.
2. Once 1 is done, you want to socket your auras into your helmet and run Grace which provides evasion.
3. See the flask section of the guide. Modern PoE mapping involves having 4 utility flasks up all the time which provides you with a range of boosts. The evasion from jade mitigates a lot of damage. The phasing from Quartz allows you to walk through enemies, thereby preventing some of them from hitting you at all.
4. You can get a belt that provides positive resistances, it will relief resistances pressure from your other items.
5. With 4, you can get a high life roll shield.

DPS:
1. Buy lvl 21 Vortex, Vaal Cold Snap and Creeping Frost >> instant 14% overall DPS boost
2. Buy Legacy of Fury, your clear will be so much faster and Scorch will scale your DPS
3. Buy a cheap 6L chest, focus on high life roll
4. After you combine Vortex and Creeping Frost in the 6L chest, you will have more sockets. Then you can run Hatred + Divine Blessing combo.
5. Anoint Ash Frost Storm on your amulet. It is quite cheap as the highest tier oil required is Crimson.

All of the above can be done with 3 div 300c. The most expensive item is Devouring Diadem. Let us know how it goes~

Done many of the suggestions you said, and got my Vortex/Creeping Frost to lvl 32 now. My gear is far from ideal, but I almost doubled my damage. Also, optimized the tree so now I have more survivability too.

It's a really good build and I could sink so much more currency into it, if I play enough and earn it :P

Thanks for suggestions.

I've further upgraded some stuff, but now I'm unsure how to proceed. I've got 9 divines and 800c more chaos worth equivalent. My dps feels okay, but I'm still worried about survivability.
I think I've min maxed the gem sockets with a -2% reserve that I'm now also running defiance banner, which helps quite a bit.
Maybe its also just a playstyle thing and I'm playing it wrong, since I'm still dying to bosses/ 100% crucible mobs/soul eaters
I think my physical defences are fine now, but if I upgrade into another unique like skin of the lords i feel like the hp loss will just kill me.
Whats the best course of action for further upgrades here? Get even more hp on the rings/shield, get a better amulet/belt?
