How in the hell did you get your armor so high, and without sacrificing mana regen from ES? Don't get me wrong, I'm able to do pretty much any map (I reroll ele reflect, because why not), with the exception of the 74 maze map boss. Fucking laser just eats me alive. I haven't built up a pool of 75+ maps, so I can't comment on 76,77, and 78 maps, but given that the 66 maps are the same, difficulty wise to me, as the 75 maps, I can't imagine it's that big of a jump.

my current gear


Waiting to 6 link my carcass jack...


Sitting at 4k Life, 4k Armor myself. I've been running 75/76 maps and, unless there are huge damage multipliers (Vuln, % damage increase, etc...) I don't really notice the hits. More Armor would be nice but I also don't want to lose my precious mana.

EDIT:

And Vaal Maze is very easy. I just ran one with no cursing and Ele Equilibrium (basically i do no damage :D).

Just keep moving. If you run in a circle around him his lasers will always miss. Never stay in melee range to avoid smash. Boom, now nothing he does will harm you. Just keep burning and moving.

You don't need that much ES to run a lvl 21 AA (I quit at lvl 84 - chaining 75-77 maps was boring /shrug) and I got some decent drops while leveling.

Gear


I still consider this gear fairly mediocre, but there were simply no options for upgrades on poe.xyz.is by the time I quit playing that character.

Nah I'll keep my gear. I might want to play this character later. But seriously, this gear isn't anything special (except for the wand - that thing is pretty beastly).

Get it where you can without sacrificing too many important stats. As for the support gems, I wouldn't bother. Maybe IIR instead of Inc. AoE on a 6L, but that's still not really worth it.

As Fite mentioned, this is not really an ideal MF build. However you can get decent MF: I'm running a very similar one to Fite but it's on standard (not gonna bother with Mind over Matter), and I have ~100 IIR. This only nets me around 1.5 inventory of vendorable junk per map though (at ~20-30 IIQ map quality). I manage to also squeeze in 5.1k health or so.

This is my gear: traded for the Carcass Jack and 5-linked it myself; everything else is self-found. This is standard so I have a lot of accumulated gear... Obviously it's going to be much harder to get this type of gear on the new leagues.
