PoE Earthshatter builds

Hi, I'm toying around in pob to improve defense vs elemental damage but there is a thing I don't understand. Let's assume I have 80% all elemental resistance. And I can take a maximum hit of lightning damage with 50 000 (maximum hit taken in pob). When I activate Xibaqua in Pob and still have 80% all elemental resistance and 80% chaos resistance. Xibaqua let me take 50% of elemental damage as chaos damage. Why does this double my maximum hit taken to 100 000? In my understanding it shouldn't make a difference if I take 100% of the damage as lightning with 80% Lightning resistance or 50% wi

I'm planning on rolling a Corrupting Fever Glad because those sweet sweet bleed explosions are perfect for what I want to do. The challenge is in how to level it. If you feel like taking my word for it and don't care about the details there's a TLDR towards the end.

This is my league starter and the first build I've posted here. I see several threads on here about Earthbreaker totems, and wanted to share my theorycraft. This build plays like reverse Bladefall/Bladeblast, but a little slower. My gearing needs some upgrades (6-link, +1 totem shield, and clusters) but I've managed this on about a 3ex

POB

Hello All I've been messing around with General's cry and I think i finally found the best (or most fun) combination. Here is my POB: Basically im using a 2h ax and my main 6 link is tectonic slam because its a great fire attack for chieftain. My second 6 link is generals cry with earthshatter. this is great because as long as i get at least 3 mirages, they will always create 15 spikes which i can easily detonate with tectonic slam so the synergy is great and the explosions are very satisfying. That with concentrated effect give
