Ok. I hit 85. Opened the corruption levels. At monolith 100 corruption, I am getting my ass handed to me. The PITA thing is that I am getting wrecked by fire and physical even though I am waaaay over the threshold.
Am I supposed to be doing something prior to these 100 corruptions?

don't walk into shit? I'm dumb and keep walking into shit I shouldn't be. but otherwise 100corr is pretty easy.
I tried to pull up your character on lastepoch tools.
Anyone can actually inspect anyones, if you know their account and character name.

I'm not sure what tools a paladin has for survival.
Defenses:
capped resists is stage 1.
stage 2 armor. Armor reduces ALL non-dot damage, only hits. 100% for physical, 70% for everything else. so your atm 40% armor, is 40% dr versus phys, 28% versus the rest.
stage 3. dodge. you have 0 of. % chance to negate a hit entirely.
stage 4.block. % chance to block attacks AND spells. and block effect is how powerful the block is. my rogue has 74% block, 1226 block effect for 41% eff, without any real effort on this. I'd expect you to have 100% here. unless theres some temp, or hidden thing going on. as, even my rogue technically has 0 block, and its not being displayed.
stage 5. glancing blows. %chance to reduce a hit by a %. as a rogue, I actually have a passive that converts block to glancing blows. so, have 100% glancing blows. GB is a flat 35% less.
stage 6. critical strike avoidance. I have 77% chance to avoid crits atm, this reducing any crits to normal hits. getting 100% here is pretty powerful. helps eliminate any rando 1shots. there is also "reduced bonus damage taken from crits"
stage 7. random DR passives/skills. like as a rogue, I have -20% damage taken while moving from evasion passive, and -4/8 while moving from tailwind.(no idea if these add or multiply) I dont know what paladins have.
stage 8 ward. Ward is of course temporary HP that covers all damage. its not like Energy shield in poe, where chaos damage skips it. go back and look at mclfuffins gear I posted yesterday, and see his ward setup. converting HP to ward nonstop for a massive temp hp pool. Alternatively, just stack Hp, and HP% on idols, and gear.
stage 9 endurance. endurance is a %dr applied to all damage when your hp drops to the endurance threshold value. this is after ward. but a high endurance threshold and % is of course a massive survival tool.
my char has 1221 hp, but has an estimated EHp of 2871 according to lastepochtools. I dont actually know how its calculated. (is moving is checked)

(I see here 73% crit avoid, and 110% reduced bonus damage from crits... huh. I suppose thats useless...)
