Greetings is it possible to change Empower gem to Item Rarity Gem? +70 IIR sounds fairly good to me, or will it have a great impact on dmg?

Got the answer.
When it comes to degen skills, the oldest one counts. therefore, if you want it to work properly with this build, you should link the rarity to contagion and cast it first.

But (afaik) Item Rarity only works if you kill the enemy with linked skill. The problem is that you won't kill enemies with contagion most of the time since Contagion only spreads the ED. The kills should go to ED then, not Cont. Right?

You're right when it comes to regular skills.

Degeneration skills like Contagion, ED are working differently, just like I said- The oldest degeneration skill [means: the first one that is used] is the one that counts.

MC, what is your armour and eva stat? I am torn between the two. In my play I can usually dodge the big hard hitting monsters but I get swarmed by many blues which kills me (can't kill them fast enough yet), suggesting Armour would be better. And it goes with the Belly I'm using. But I like the option of going into Acrobatics by doing Eva. Then there's the CWDT+IC which helps mitigate some of the smaller hits. Thoughts?

Evason is working just fine for me and I dont even have too much - 3048.

I use or u can buy Rumi's Concoction flask instead.

I dont die to anything actually.
I kill Ambrius easy, twinned abyss, twinned vaal, twinned brittle..no issues.

What level are you? This build has a bit early problems but it gets much better fast.

So, to summon up all the defenses this build has:

-This build doesn't use many uniques and doesn't need them to work either so you can play with only rares if you want to to stack up Life and Res.
-The main defense besides that comes from the Blasphemy curses we use. Especially Enfeeble is a massive defensive boost. If you can only run 2 and really want to stack up defense you could run Enfeeble, TempChains and even ArcticArmour but I'd recommend using Vulnerability since it boosts our DPS quite a bit.
-We use Whirling Blades with Fortify. If you're in dangerous situations you can always WB out and passively activate Fortify, increasing your def even more.
(+ the Evasion/Armour flask. You can even use Chaos Golem if you want.)

I felt a little squishy at first but now I can quite easily facetank most enemies, but even magic monsters die very fast with all the spreading dots so it only very rarely happens that I get swarmed by some.

If I run dual-curse (+Arctic Armor), what setup would be the best?:
AA + Enfeeble + Temporal Chains
or
AA + Enfeeble + Vulnerability
or
AA + Temporal Chains + Vulnerability
