Help me survive more!

Hello everyone,

I am having some survival issues on my Lightning Arrow/Storm Rain Raider. Its not terrible, but frustrating enough when I am trying to level. Can any of you fine gentleman take a look at my setup and suggest some tweaks/mods. I really appreciate it.

U have to unhide ur characters in ur profile, otherwise no1 will be able to help u. :)

Ok I had a look at ur "Raider", which is actually a Deadeye.

Deadeye in itself is one of the squishiest ascendancies in PoE, so u don't have a lot of room for survivability.
As a deadeye people usually try to overpower enemies with tons of damage, instead of building tanky.

U can still improve it tho, if u want to. Some things to consider:

- cap ur Fire res
- use a Jade and Quicksilver Flask (movement speed is survival aswell)
- get Shock immunity, at least through Flasks
- get more Evasion on gear or tree (u will have to sacrifice damage tho)
- get more life, I always aim for ~170% in SC (u don't have a lot of %increased life on ur tree)
- use Wind Ward instead of Focal Point from ur Ascendancy
- cap Spell Suppression (Atziris Step are very good and cheap for that purpose)
- use Defiance Banner if u can spare the mana for it (nice evasion bonus)
(- change ur body armour... I really don't see why u're using that one right now. It can be good if u're wearing alot of shaper items, but u don't right now)

I'm not a Deadeye expert by any means, but that's what came to my head right now. I'm sure there's alot more u can improve on, but like I said... most people just focus on damage and movement speed and then take the occasional one shot death.
