If your damage is low, you gotta figure out why. When the game has been out longer and there are more build guides it will be a lot easier.
I'll tell u why it is low!! Because drop rates are utter dogshit. There is no way to craft ur gear, no way to drop ur gear. What is left? Hoping u get a 1 i 900000 decent rare item from a boss once every 10 hours? The currency drop should be increased by at least 500% !
Why do you need a "decent" rare. A full loadout of blue items with the core stats you need will often do fine. A rare with 3 ok stats for you and the rest garbage will do fine.
I made it to act 4 crafting blues and picking up half decent rares on a lightning sorc.
Stop blaming the gear drops for your bad build. Also, check your vendors EVERY level up.

You'll always have PoE 1 where you can press a button and explode a full screen of mobs with zero skill involved.
Don't get too cocky child... there is zero skill involved in PoE2 as well...
PoE2 is NOT hard... it's fucking tedious and boring... yeah, I use 2 skills instead of one, oh wow I'm a genius now...
Also dodge rolling is NOT skill... we've been avoiding boss mechanics in PoE1 for fucking decade now, way before you came along and invented "skill"...
I am easily beating everything the game throws at me with my build in PoE2 but the game is VERY SLOW, VERY LONG and every time I miss-click once and die the game makes me REDO STUPID UNCHALLENGING SHIT FOR NO REASON!!!
The campaign is so long that by the time I got to mid Act 2 I would have gone through the entire PoE1 campaign... so they tell me I have to waste 40-60 hours JUST FOR THE CAMPAIGN before I get to do any endgame mapping???
Suuuure... maybe I should also I should sell them my home and stop working and play PoE2 all day...
Grow up... you're just a stupid "git gud" child that just spams "skill issues" because you're ignorant and you don't understand jack shit about good video games...
PoE2 is NOT a looter ARPG because the game simply doesn't have loot randomness and it's stupidly BORING!!! I know exactly what will drop from everything I kill and from anything other than elite monster it's NOTHING and from elite monsters it's mostly USELESS SHIT!!!
So killing monster is EXTREMELY BORING because I have no anticipation for a good drop...
This game is an abomination as a looter ARPG... but you keep typing "skill issues' because that's the GenZ bullshit thing to say...

Buddy, if the game is so slow for you then you build is bad. Just wait a week or so and copy someone elses META build if you cant figure one out on your own.
If I re rolled SSF right now and played my exact same build now that I've figured it out, i would faceroll the first 3 acts. Does it take a little longer than POE 1, yeah, but this isn't POE 1. Take a step back and breath. The game is great, the drops in acts 1-2 could be buffed a little and probably will be.
once you do hit end game and farm a bit, your second character could probably go through the 6 acts in less than 12 hrs. Assuming your second build doesnt suck also.

Luckily for you, other games exist.
HCSSF is the only way.

I just want them to improve the passive tree so that I can actually effectively scale corrupted blood and other such skills. I also want more nodes that refer to mechanics of various weapon types(I see no slam nodes for instance) and I want there to be actual sustain in the tree outside of recoup/ES.

As a hardcore ARPG fan who has been playing them for many years, this is an actual ARPG not a survivors game sandbox.
You got your game with PoE1. Let me have mine, GGG has spent the last 6 years alienating my entire guild back to Diablo 2. They brought us back with ruthless, they hella brought us back with PoE2.

While I wouldn't complain about better drops even I [with no skillz] can mostly get by.
I think the situation will shift dramatically IF people start leveraging the trade site DURING the campaign instead of waiting for maps (or trying to snipe something).
If a sorc drops a nice rare weapon with flat damage, %damage, and one or two other good mods instead of them disenchanting it for a regal shard that drop could hit the market and your melee character may pick up a nice bonking stick for a song -- the sorc will also profit nicely so it's win-win.
IF I was leveraging trade instead of trying a more craft myself, check vendors religiously, ID anything with a "good base", etc. I suspect I'd be MILES ahead of where I am now.

If its not on the tree then that means it is accessible via other means.
i don't know what's out on the internet yet, but look around for gears stats and see what's going to be available to you end game. Also have a read through uniques if they've been mined yet.
