Rofl, you're only 5 points away from AoF and you didn't take it?
Because melee+AoF=Death in Chaos.
how goes with mana?
Mana Leech is a necessity. This is how I use Ground Slam:

Given that it was a 6 linked armor, I would be using the Melee Physical Damage Gem as well.

As it is currently, I'm doing ~9k DPS.

Are you tanky enough for chaos with that build? What do you think about this?

I'm definitely tanky enough for Chaos. The only time I ever die is if I hero-mode into a mob without noticing the elemental reflect aura unique mob in the back.

As for your build, from my experience, you really don't need to get endurance charges. Just run one granite flask for the sticky situations. You also lack dps. You need good dps if you want to run chaos in a reasonable time. At lower levels, my build did look a lot like yours. Then I got to chaos.

I've come to realize that, at higher levels, every passive point counts. I notice quite a few places where you waste points. Also, while blood magic is nice, running a mana leech gem is better. If you don't use blood magic, you can support auras (ie, Hatred and Anger). Those two auras alone give me 3k dps.

So, my main tips for you are: At the end game, spec out of blood magic(it's quite handy for leveling though), drop the endurance charges, and try to find a little more dps. I'm fine running chaos at 2.4k hp with 70% DR and 75% elemental resistances.

If you have any questions, feel free to whisper me in game.
