I followed Maxroll's guide, the only guide I can find for 3.22
Why does my character feel so bad?

Feels like I'm dying pretty commonly, couldn't even do wave 28 sim.

DPS feels like its not as strong as the video guides. Genuinly dont know what to do at this point.

Hello.
Regarding simulacrum, the build can/will struggle, we're still elementalists, and though you are chaos capped etc, we're commonly weak to physical damage, and lost the totem taunt in 3.22.

About the build, if you're looking for regular improvement, i would advise you to take a look at Deerfart PoB's above when it comes to dps as he has 5 times your damage.
Also take a look at the few last pages in this thread as I've spent some time giving advice with upgrades that could benefit you too.

But upgrades would be mainly on the offence side. Lots of things you can do to get better damage.

If what you want is feel really tanky and not care much about dps, well take a look at Zizaran's HC character ( https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Zizaran/characters ) or something.
You won't have the kind of damage you can get as an elementalist tho.

I have been struggling with how to get more damage out of the build.

Any advice would be appreciated

Hey.

I would start with removing the additional arrow, unless you have another one somewhere that i haven' seen. You want an odd number of arrows, otherwise when facing a monster/boss, your ballista fires an arrow on each side of it, not directly at it : something like "b<" with b as the ballista/bow.
Bosses/high hp monsters right now are probably painful due to that.

Edit : didn't realize you had +2

Certainly looks like you've experimented with the thread of hope, but tbh removing the right side of the tree, allocating dirty techniques + getting a good timeless jewel, you are almost at the same damage and are left with about 12 free skill points to reallocate, probably in cluster jewels.
It's just far better.

It looks again like a Palsteron league starter build base, with improvements, considering the right side of the tree and the lightning coil.

If you want to improve the build, there's like 3 times your damage to get if you work towards something like the pob from DeerFart on the previous page (or Brunowa's on first page).

Take a look at the last pages of this thread also, I've been making more detailed answers.

Edit : nice quiver. Also, nice to see someone that has removed ignite prolif from the bow setup to get the exarch glove implicit instead !

I appreciate the reply. Yes originally started with maxroll and went off on my own.

I will look at your recommendations. Much appreciated!
Deerfarts POB shows 20m ignite dmg. (20 fuses)
Am I missing something?

Yes. Let me correct it, few min. I'll brb

Here you go : https://pobb.in/2708ed9tD4nd

The damage seems "low" (10M) as it's set to uber pinnacle.
To pinnacle boss, it's 35M+

Edit : also don't set PoB to "manuel 20 fuses", set it to "Max sustainable fuses" (your max theoretical fuses)

Spot here for new POB in a bit: https://pobb.in/IxIMs9IMsc8W

Of note, there is some room to factor in the ignite overlap and some random tweaking I’ve done. Seems to me the ignite stacking would be a huge consideration as overall dps that I’m not accounting for. Will return with results soon.

Updated POB with what I believe is accurate. Not sure why its showing 116 skill points, when I have 24 from killing bandits and quests.

I am hitting a "soft cap" I think where diminishign returns are kicking in. May play with multiples proj via tattoos or something (odd numbers).

EDIT: Updated to reflect notable tattoo.
