Time for some help, please

Here’s the situation: I cannot seem to move past pit 100 no matter what I do.

Now for the setup details:

Republic of Gamers motherboard, I9, 128G of ram, 1080 ti card with 11G on-board. Have a hardwired 600mbit ethernet line.

I am using the following build: /d4/build-guides/quill-volley-spiritborn-guide from Maxroll. I have all the correct pieces, with all the correct affixes, tempers, and have masterworked them as best I could. There are one or two spots where I hit twice instead of three times, but I’m not doing all that again. It took me long enough to get what I have.

Now, here’s the issue…

I reach a point where the mobs start acting strange. Sometimes, they melt. Other times, they act like I’m not even hitting them. I have sat there for several minutes before, watching the timer go into the negative until either the mobs die, or I do.

Is there something about my system that just can’t handle the game at that level? Is there something I am still not understanding about the game mechanics? Or, am I just bad? Seriously. It’s okay to tell me so. I need to know so I don’t waste any more time on this game.

My peak seems to be about pit 80 using this build. Interestingly, with the now-defunct elixir bug, I was able to easily complete a pit 100. So, something is amiss. I just don’t know what. I’ve put a LOT of time into this game, but if I can’t figure this out, I may just quit. There’s no point in spinning my wheels. You know?

Think out of the box and be creative. I need some real help here.

Just try 1 of Rob’s builds and see what happens.
