Increased Area of Effect, perhaps?

So literally the first boss I killed in this game gave me a Tabula Rasa (normal mode, essence league). I guess I'm off to a strong start in my PoE career.

Also, could use an invite.

1. Item Rarity/Added Chaos seem like odd choices. I could see Chaos being good if you can deliver a bunch of it and had Poison (either through gem or Consuming Dark), but Arc isn't exactly a fast skill, Spell Echo not withstanding. Item Rarity I'd definitely drop; that's a luxury gem. Go Increased Critical Strikes/Lightning Penetration.
2. Are you capped on resistances? Even with what you've got from the tree, your gear makes me think not. I'd fix that ASAP.
3. You're life based but your only non-ES gear provides a little bit of Evasion. I'm guessing you get one shot quite a bit.
4. Get that Lightning Warp setup in a 4L with Faster Casting.

My damage seems to boost a lot with the chaos over others. I use lightning pen on bosses, though. I will do more tests
No. Still building it up. I am bad at this.
So build up evasion? I thought maybe that was just for dex characters. Got plenty of gear to do that lying about.
Does it really make much of a difference? It seems almost instant as it is.

Oh, and should I switch over to something like my daggers on the second weapons? I just don't know.

If you're dead set on staying 6r for some reason, you could throw lgoh or life leech on there. Otherwise, depending on build, poison, Inc AoE, conc effect (for bosses) or faster attacks works. The rest of your supports are fine.

Ranger dialogue is hilarious because it's all either about how much she loves animals, or how much she hates men. Witch definitely has the best dialogue though, I get bored with Templar talking about how much he loves god.

As much as a lot of the dialogue is annoying, you gotta admit, they did good with the voice actors in this game. None of them loving suck. That and they've probably tripled the script for each character over the years, same VOs and all. And they've completely re-done the Scion like 3 times at this point. When last I played, the Scion gal was doing a 10, they had her re-do her dialogue at a 3.

It's the accent more than the banter. I love me some New Zealander / Nordic accents.

One thing I find odd considering her other man hating dialogue, is how she calls Fairgraves a good man caught in a bad situation.

Just don't, whatever you do, play Scion.

edit: oh wait did they make her less bad? When I last played it was convoluted homilies every five minutes, both worse and way more of it then any other character

edit2: if you play Duelist Piety spends the whole game hitting on you

I won't hear anything negative about the wonderful labyrinth VO, except that it might get repetitive on multiple runs to get a dumb enchantment.

The only thing I would like more than 6 red is 5 red and a green and I don't have enough chromatic orbs to try for that.

In all honesty, 5R1G is probably not all that difficult to get. At 13:1 Chroms to Chaos, that's not too expensive an investment considering you already got the 6L

As a kiwi I love all the kiwiana in the game like Paua Amulets and the whole Karui being not-Maori instead of the usual not-French, not-Italian not-[insert nationality/ethnicity here] races you get in most fantasy games. Also I get the feeling that Wraeclast = Australia - a huge hostile continent where everything wants to kill you.
