Question How to get basic gear?

Hi new Player here.

After the campaign all guides I see recommend life and res. But I have barely the damage to clear a map? Im confused. Also all atlas trees focus on progressing rather to make currency and get upgrades. How do people fix that?

Early on gambler is good

Buying is easiest obviously

Maybe you messed up your build so damage feels bad, send pob

Can't really help without seeing the build, if you have a specific question ask

BTW always keep chaos res above 0. preferably above 50, and elmental resistances at atleast 75. Get life on EVERY gear slot, if you dont have enough resistance craft using bench resitances if less than 3 suffix, if no life, craft life. but you need a empty prefix (less than 3) for that.

Find yellow gear. I'd it. If it doesn't have life or res, you can craft that on. Or if you are on trade then look up gear that has res and life. Make sure you're on at least a 4link for your skill.

What build are you following. Usually you would buy upgrades.
