I like the idea of this build and want to learn it but as first time playing essence drain it feels a bit clunky. So a few pointers would be appreciated.

First I know my gems are still low level and my dps will peak when they are maxed out.

But still I feel really squishy even when I have 7,5k shield and casting contagion always before essence drain feels slow and is hard to target. I keep getting killed by some trash mobs even in T9 maps. Am I doing something wrong?

Here's my char.

Looks like your flask setup is pretty bad. Flasks are one of the most important parts of defense. Don't use a life flask if you are doing low life since it doesn't recover energy shield. Swap the unique sulphur to a magic sulphur with a defensive effect mod since you already have zealots oath passive. Atziris promise isn't really good for this build since we don't have physical or elemental damage and the leech isn't going to help much because damage is done in bursts instead of constant. Using a silver flask for cast and move speed can help with the slowness. Getting freeze and shock removal on flasks would be good. If you can't remove freeze you are going to be getting owned constantly. Get white flasks, use 4 baubler to get 20% quality then use alterations to roll good mods.

Also don't use empower unless it is lvl 3 or 4, and get gems to 20/20. I have almost the same gear as you and almost never die, just make sure your flasks are up all the time and you have the proper mods to get rid of freeze and shock.

I'm looking to craft a +3 staff. Would i need to get all gems maximised for the contagion too? I have the maximised level gems for the essence drain, but i wouldn't have for the contagion.
