Could anyone help out some? I feel like I have rather decent gear (multimodded bow, non-ailment multiplier Malevolence Watcher's eye) and stuff, and still only 450k ish dps in PoB.

Your PoB only shows 1 stack of wither, select that gem setup on the left hand vertical window, then wither, then change the stacks to 10 or 15. Then go to the config tab and change aspect of the spider (top right panel) to have 3 stacks.

That'll show your actual DoT dps, which is 600k and good enough for almost all content.

From there you could do a number of things to pump up your dps. I'd recommend getting a 21/20 ED gem and an Empower lvl 4 as next steps, since that's straight dps gains without sacrificing anything. That puts you just under 700k DoT dps, which is approaching Uber Elder doable.

After those two it gets harder. You could get NACDOT and chaos or spell % on your amulet, you could also get chaos or spell % on your rings and belt.

Also I noticed you have a spreading rot jewel but aren't using blight. So swap that jewel out, or switch your gem setup to include a self-cast blight. I use the self-cast blight with infused channeling, which will apply wither stacks and gives 10% more chaos damage while you keep the "Infused" buff up. You'd drop the wither aura gem as part of that switch.

I am a little confused about how Withered is applied using Blight and the 'Spreading Rot' jewel. I have socketed the jewel, but am not seeing any indication that Withered or Hinder are being applied when I cast Blight. Plus I am not seeing anything on the tool tip or from inside the 'Character Screen'. Any help would be appreciated.

withered is a debuff on the enemies so you won't see it in your char's buffs.

But will I see some sort of icon hovering over their heads as I obliterate them with Blight?
