Bear Shaman falls off at endgame

Was having alotta fun throughout campaign and levelling maps, was having no issue up to t13, encountering broken enemies getting 1 shotted by attacks that I was able to tank before, I dont get it
Have done many revises of my build and even tried others online, none are even comparable to other classes in this game in terms of speed damage and being able to take hits, its either alot of armour, or glass cannon and go dmg, I balance inbetween and it does nothing late endgame

This is the most common thing about poe1 or poe2. There is a point where our build struggle, even if we are following a build guide. Sometimes our build ''looks'' like the one in the guide, but its usually missing a small piece that means a world of difference. Its not a game where you can just copy a build, you actually need to understand what are you doing, to then understand whats missing.

And dont worry, you will get better and better each league. And then, you will even find yourself creating things that arent in any guide.

About the bear, its even harder because its a new class and mechanic, but i can assure you, it scales really well endgame, im playing it and im clearing juiced t15 6 mods, and the clear speed aint much different from a poison pathfinder. I could say there are around 5 to 6 main paths to choose and they all work well.

If you have any doubts pm later

Welcome to the VISION!
Thw whole endgame thing is nothing but stat check, what challenge?
i dont know your build but its better if you ditch armour and go full ES, with a 20k lifepool you will feel tanky again

(this is the answer to all defensive issues in the game right now, go ES )
