2 shot by Dominus (Merciless)

Hey guys i have been trying to do dominus and i basically get 2-3 shot by him, i know my resist isnt great but even with a topaz flask i take to much damage from him.

my build: http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgEAAecEswUtFE0Y2xo4GlUhYCSbJy8ppTboOtg9_ECgROdN2E4qU99USVcNWGNY21nzWf5br18_YEthIWSjah5uaXKpdO108XrvfNmAioFvgziE2YTvjM-QVZHOm4OePJ7NoLSiAKSspzCnhKgYrKqsr7T5u-28n76nwBrG2NIh3Q3jn-RR7DjvDu988B_yL_MG9kj3MvdN9777qg==

Gear:

Any suggestions that could help me talentwise or gearwise?

You did not post your chest piece but you'll probably want to have more life and better res by now anyway, especially in Merciless. You could easily get affordable upgrades by trading a bit here and there using poe.xyz or even craft some blue gear yourself with more life and at least one good res.

Passive Tree is okay, as far as I can see.

added my chest now, i got around 2.5k health ingame, and i feel im realying on cyclone+life on hit to stay alive, it works well usually, but dominus is just a pain cant even get in and do dmg

Farm farm farm, get 4000+ life and 75% on all resists.

Don't even bother to kill Dominus before that. Why would you want to do that anyways? ;)

well i managed to kill everything else with no problems but i just got stuck on him,so its just to farm, and what level would be appropiate to try him again?

I don't think the level is the issue here but simply the gear. Try to optimize it and don't hold back to exchange shitty rare items for solid blue ones until you get that good rare upgrade per drop or trade.

Watch for corrupt blood bleed while youre cycloning around him, have flasks that Remove Bleeding. In his first form, avoid his lightning attacks, the pulsing one and CERTAINLY his smash attack. Its not meant to be tanked, thats why theres a long windup.

He's talking about merc Dominus, not Palace.

IMO drop multistrike from Cyclone for this fight, you want to manually dodge his fist slam and lightning cone abilities, not facetank them. You also want shock removal on your Topaz flask, and a better health flask preferably with bleed removal.

Cyclone is good cause it keeps me up, but once i start spinning its like i cant stop it, making me desync alot is it cause of multistrike or?

if you're talking about the bad touch of god, take cover
