This build gained so much damage in 2.0 it's bloody scary. Defensive tree with Hatred/HOA/Ice golem has me on 30+k unbuffed... 60+k with bloodrage, full power/frenzy charges and atziri flask. Even my curse on hit setup has 15+k dps.
I'm considering giving up Hatred and going with Grace, because reflect hurts like hell. It's still 23+k dps without Hatred, pretty decent imho.

My gear for reference (still using Drillneck in the absence of better quiver):

It's quite difficult leveling while following this build. I'm using lightning arrow + poison arrow instead of tornado shot because lightning arrow simply seems to do more damage. I'm playing warband, and since it's non-HC I followed the "non-defensive" tree. I just noticed there are no resistance nodes at all, and only one INT node. Since I won't be able to buy any proper gear until I hit like level 60ish, this journey from 40-60 is getting really painful with low resists. Expecting stuff with good resists, or good stuff in general, to drop is like expecting to win the lottery tomorrow. I'm also having tremendous difficulty increasing INT, barely able to meet the requirement for some blue gems. Also because it's a new league everything is like 2-3x more expensive.

As for Rat's Nest. 2ex is only for the top rolled ones. Message me ingame @ 'Fritso_Archer', and I'll give you one for free that I have laying around.

Your dps on tornado shot is probably quite low because this build relies almost entirely on having a high physical base (that you then add a percentage of with hatred/herald of ash). And your bow is pretty bad - sry! A decent bow should have +X% increased physical damage as one of the mods, and in fact there's an easy way to get such a bow for leveling.

Simply trade a decimation or harbinger of any rarity to any vendor with a rare rustic sash (the higher level the better) and one blacksmith's whetstone, and it'll come back as a blue harbinger with only one mod: X% increased physical damage. Usually this will be 70-80%. Then you craft the flat Y-Z physical damage on top, and you have a decent workhorse that should get you further.

The other thing to note is that all unique quivers save Drillneck are bad for this build. A decent rare quiver with any combination of increased global crit chance/multiplier, flat physical damage or attack speed will likely be as good or better for you. Look out for spike-point quivers especially since the extra implicit crit chance tends to help.

Another thing: don't try buying t2 uniques off trade chat: they're horribly overpriced. The website poe.trade is much better - I got rat's nest, maligaro's gloves and atziri's step for 15 chaos each, and the rolls were all decently high.

Poachers is no good because you cant maintain frenzy charges with it on bosses when the dps matters the most. I did hatred + herald of ice + curse on hit + assassins mark so you can be lazy and keep your 3-4 power charges. Then I'm use frenzy and blood rage to maintain frenzy charges. I lost only a bit of dps to herald of ash but tbh with all the extra damage plus frenzy damage i don't even notice it. Using manual ec has made the build go from lazy 2 buttons to around 5 actively. What are people doing for leech? I'm finding it very lacking on bosses i might even switch from ts to split or ice shot so i can get life leech in there also.
Also if you have the space split arrow cull iir iiq fits in well for trash clearing lower maps/finishing bosses, you really see a lot more uniques and currency this way.

What you are saying about maintain Frenzy on CoH don't make any sense, if you can't maintain the frenzy on CoH you won't maintain the power charges too. But at least the frenzy can be charged by an skill and power charges don't.

Using Frenzy - PCoC (Power Charge on Crit) solves the issue, and allows you to build both frenzy and power charges on bosses.

That's the exact reason I use only 1 setup to build charges, and curse at the same time:
Frenzy - GMP - Chain - PCoC - CoH - Assassin's Mark

You need the extra 6L though....
