I don't understand how I'm suppose to play maps

I'm at maps with a druid level 76.
I have 5k armour at 69% defence since i'm wearing a unique that gives me leech overflows health by 1.5x. My elemental resistance is at 73/75/75 No chaos resistance (yes I know that's bad)
I have 2k health with the unique on, and most equipment giving some hp.
I don't have mana issues with my set up but Leech isnt really helping alot. No I don't have regen since I still don't get how that works (getting it so high since people are doing ES builds)

I bought a bunch of armour, a talisman that helps me do damage, and feel fine playing. However, my health can be quickly drained from simple encounters. I'm currently at tier 6 maps. My damage isnt the problem, its my survivability.
Plus I have tried to do a delirium gate run, it ended badly. Infinitely spawning and getting killed in like 1-2 seconds.

I understand that I should dodge, heal, leech often, and make sure my defence/health are high. Unless I have divines/tons of exalts, what am I suppose to do?

Oh, also I have 3 ascendancies. I'm focusing on the hidden path, unlucky, and inevitable crits.

start with getting a lot more chaos resist.

i didnt need chaos res until doing T15s tbh, chaos isnt the issue here. do you have a poe ninja? you shouldnt be getting 1 shot in T6 maps as a druid, which druid are you bear? wolf? wyvern?

You never mentioned any ES or and ele damage midigatin from armor

Things you can do
Farm lower tier maps that you are comfortable with until you get more currency to upgrade your gear.
Reduce map modifier.
Avoid map modifier you are disadvantage with.
Check if your skill and gems or passive skill tree needs tuning or changes.
Identify the problem you are facing with your character and work on it. You can't deal with mob rush situation which could mean your skills too slow, too much setup required, coverage too small, lack of defensive skills..etc. Also your life or defense could be not up to required level.

This is true
I have 188 ES. Its by accident and a leftover.
I mitigate 60\65\60 of elemental damage with my armour stat

I don't get one shot, however it doesn't take many hits from rares to put me into low health.

I am doing a wolf build. Shred, cleave, pounce, lunar's blessing
Primarily doing damage boosts, armour boosts, and when shapeshifting boosts.

I have All armour stats but the little ES like I said.
I think I'm mostly worried that I'm still under stats for doing tier 6 maps. However, Maybe i'm just under stat to do bossing/end game content.

This is fair
I might have to stop doing delirium since I cant tell if they freeze and they lead to me taking alot of damage. I might switch to doing abyss and breach.
The game doesnt give you much to work with as far as end game progession info/understanding. I think your right, just slow down and work on maps.
The maps can have modifiers that make it hard for me so yes, I should be more picky on my map choice.
Idk, I just feel like i'm under pressure to do all the content. I want to do it, but I do need to work on the character more.

I'll work on that while rotating my armour again.

POE ninja?
I'm guessing you mean a glass cannon or a fast character? lol Idk
I'm wolf form. Doing the whole freeze everything and shred.
Using lunar's blessing and pounce as well. Herald of Ice and regening rage.
