Why does my bloodmage have low damage?

Fix your passives my dude. I took one look, and they make no sense. :(

A staff without spell dmg is useless.

Also it’s an ever growing comet damage. You will upgrade slowly to the point of millions. Or you can swap to wand/rath pith and go mana battery getting a pretty decent damage upgrade. But there’s nothing wrong with staying away from that.

My passives I slowly changed around to be this. Probably closer to what others who follow builds run but I don’t know. Haven’t really compared, just did my own thing in pob. My 2.5m comets end up doing ~50m+ dps fully buffed. My spark & orb of storms generate comets much faster than most EW users from what I have seen.

If I change ring from rarity I get to 2.5m. I also had 3 wrong jewels where I was testing presence increase for proximal tangibility being easier to clear in temple so ignore those as well. Ha

Damage ring is 42% cold 30% lightning, 30% fire dmg, and resists. Jewels have the same stats as the others without the presence and all nearly max rolls. I think just adding max es instead of presence.

The way that people reach millions of damage on their comets is by scaling mana to the orbit and beyond utilizing vaal corrupted Rathpith Globe with mana scaling damage modifiers. They also run with the Archmage buff, which further scales your damage by stacking more mana.

That is the gist, but there are plenty of other ways to scale your damage, e.g., spending an insane amount of currency on Adorned, or even more hallucinating amounts on the corrupted version for rare jewels.

The staff doesn't have increased %dmg, the +8 is nice but without the multiplier you're missing out on a lot of damage. Try for the amanamu desecrate on prefix for increased damage from skills that use life.

Also get a better rite of passage.

Headhunter too.

Try to buy staff that looks atleast like that. +6 to spells would be better but can get pricey. On citadel bosses you need to know what spells to dodge or you will die. Im not getting instakilled on my blood mage just coz i have 1 mil dmg on comet and boss dies in 2 sec.

Do you have a build link for sacred flame and COEA?

First and foremost you need a better staff.. You need lots of spell damage in your staff....

Just extra damage modifiers are not very useful unless you have a stronger atleast 400% increased spell damage or equivalent...

You can achieve this by adding a staff that gives 230+ spell damage and skill tree easily.... This should greatly improve your damage..

You have a good body armour... What's your strategy behind getting a temporalis?

Just upgrade your staff and rings or get a good spell slinger wand with a focus ( that gives spell damage as you scale mana and life ) or a good sceptre and add coea..

What is critical hit chance and critical hit bonus?

Get insta leach from gem so you can get better gloves
