Agreed with op, I have 1 glacial hammer berserker, 1 two handed lightning strike character , 1 heavy strike berserker and 1 ice crash inquisitor, and Ive only managed to squeeze 600 or 550 thousand dps by level 90 on each. I like to be creative and follow my own builds but the most I can get to without dying 5 times in a map is t14 blue rolled maps safely...Even with some watchers eye my build will only do 50k more damage. Splash from glacial hammer got deleted, monster speed, hp and damage really shit on all my builds and with a 900 pdps weapon the tops I will see is 1.5 mill which is still not gona chunk any bosses like before. You cant stun or freeze consistenly with those damage numbers either and even if you have some mobs locked down theres one rare casting 25 spells / second.
All these other players saying its your problem dont know what its like to play your own build.
this is definitely a knowledge problem. lightning strike berserker is in fact one of the current meta builds and its a recommended choice for a mid investment good build. if you cant figure out how to make it work you need to hit the books and figure out how the 10m dps ls zerker are doing it

yet you are using marylenes fallacy which seems like extreme anti synergy on an ascendancy that already struggles hard with critting

I got marylenes to get the multi high, I got alot of crit already, but even If I was at 100 crit Id see a million.5 damage
Everyone knows the bow, minion or caster builds are at 5 or 6 million damage with equivalents investment, lets not pretend

right, thats why ggg felt bows needed a huge blanket buff in 3.17
the only bow builds that outperform a properly built ls character are either turbo glass cannons or pushing the mirror investment level
the reason why you see such a huge representation of bow builds this league is because of omniscience, which is indeed busted. the power of this item, combined with the buffs to bows in general allows people to at least play bows without breaking bank. however most of them are the exact same secrets of suffering elemental ts build, and most of them are wondering why they die to a sneeze in white maps

Bows are pretty bad, casters aren't great on the whole and did genuinely need the enormous damage buff they got this league. I promise if you go play a traditional "bow" skill with similar input to what you currently have you will feel pretty bad about the build.
Bows got a major buff and they are still pretty bad with very similar problems to before, a large number are entirely propped up by omniscience.
What you need is build help just go make a thread with the objectives you want and some of us will give you suggestions for how to tweak things, Zerkers never struggle for damage.

Understanding the PoE meta is key and following this is mandatory, if you want an easy time.
This wasn't always the case though, I've only played a meta build once or twice by accident basically as I actively avoid them when I can but I have a wealth of experience with weird and less used skills.
Like the fact you believe this is part of the damage GGG have done over time, Players used to meme about heavy strike being garbage and nobody could play it for example but I did and it was good, now they meme about shit and it really is.
They both look the same from the outside but are completely different if you play these skills. Keep in mind i'm a HC player with a plenty of experience though so my idea of whats "balanced" is based on the framework I play in.

i do wish more skills were better for sure, some of them are just terribly outdated in the current game. However it is not nearly as grim as some want to make it out to be, and if you leverage everything at your disposal quite a lot of things work

in any game you play, a meta exists because that's what people figured to be strong. for majority of games, once you go off-meta, in many cases ur not gonna do good unless you really know what you're doing.
im playing an offmeta build in poe, and im doing ok.
if someone doesn't know what he's doing, wishes to put little effort and time.. you can't be expecting good results for a difficult game like poe, and if its so difficult and one doesn't like it, i just help but wonder, why play it?
`Spent 2 mirrors on my build, but I'm only Level 98.` LOL
`From just quick sweep of your characters, toxic rain, golems .. sure, non meta... sure.` LOL
`What are divs?`
