Squishi..ness? Build help. (Lacerate Gladiator)

Trying to figure out how to make myself not so squishy. I can hop around with leap slam and spam lacerate to my hearts content, but sometimes I just instantly die. I'm wondering what I am missing with gearing.

​

** I know I dropped some small HP passives, but had to change some stats around for cluster jewel. ~300 hp loss.

Stop following garbage streamer/youtube guides, dual wield is pure trash. Look at past league, look for delve solo 1000+ builds instead.

If you are not playing max block, you are not playing gladiator, pick up a surrender shield and get 75/75 block.

Thanks. I’ll give it a whirl.

Ditch offhand, change tree up for shields?

I followed a top comment on league intro builds and probably should of done ore homework instead of jumping in.

The problem is a lot of the streamer/YouTube builds are intended to show off player skills and big damage numbers. Face tank Sirus doesn't get viewers.

This is a good guide:

This is a very solid sample delve 1200 character:

Been working on respeccing to this all day; filling in some holes yet with bleed damage but so far, pretty much a walking brick. Thanks for the advice.

Hm an interesting concept, as I got a lacerate glad dual wield with soul taker atm and my dps may not be the highest, think about 100k when everything is up or a bit more, I certainly notice sometimes the lack of tankiness as well in higher maps and my damage is as well scalable still, but delirium sometimes just rolls over me while without nothing is really a problem :/

How is the damage with bleed compared to on hit and some scaling in bleed? As I'm a bit scared it will let me stay even longer in place (just seeing the 67k he has in his profile) Can't post my pob atm, I'm at work, but my profile is ragnakh01 and character del_analbleeds if you want to take a look at it

Especially the block jewel with increased per elemental res is really a good concept

Edit: when I see his char, main main concern is clearpweed and his low attack speed, while I did all. The scaling I can and took the leech noed with attack speed as well, cuz multistrike and the challenger charges do let atta speed scale so well, I fear it is clunky that way?

Go to poeninja, go to builds, check hard-core league, choose glad and lacerate. This is what I'm doing when I look for builds despite fact I play sc.
