My Duelist Archer Build (advice needed)

Hello, I am new to Path of Exile and I am very interested in learning as much as I can about my class. I know very little of this game as I've just started playing officially my new Duelist today. I would like some advice and opinions on to adjust/fix my build to make it as efficient as possible without changing my original idea of him being an Archer/tank/resist/phys DPS. I am very open to suggestions.

My IGN is Obsessed_Little

I play in the Onslaught League.

I am unsure about gears & gems for early game, mid game, late game.

Any advice/helpful criticism is appreciated. Thank you for your time. ^-^

Looks like a good build you are doing. I am curious as to why you don't have the Point Blank Keystone (50% increased damage to close targets) since you are building Tanky. Also which arrow skill you are planning to use mainly (Lightning Arrow, Puncture, Split arrow, Rain of Arrows etc)?
No crits = RT keystone. Why to throw on wind 25% damage.
As other ppl said: what skill are you going to use?

This is more optimal core. Spend 10 points on damage you prefer more: elem nodes (good ones since you are near all elem clusters) of phys nodes.

Small Life regen nodes and resist in centre not worth it.
