Quick assessment: the bow and boots rock. The rest should probably be replaced.

The bow is great for what you're wanting to do. Maelstrom bows are pretty much perfect right out of the box except for the health reduction. You can go on using it all the way to 100 if you don't find a better deal along the way.

Your armor seems unfocused and only the boots really provide what you need.

The passus lux are probably the best thing for your stated purpose. You'll want to avoid decreasing your speed if you can help it, but the bow's high bonus more than cancels it.

For legs, the fire wire is okay but kinda weak bonus wise. I'd look into a couple other options like the Vortex (unique) or Crystal (legendary). These give you some additional mana restoration and some spell and/or skill boosts to the three stats your damage is tied to for additional elemental pain.

For chest, the loss of damage percentage is meager but annoying. I would swap for something like a Cloud Cover (unique), Chaos (rare) or Millennium (Legendary). These all support spells, mana restoration and/or health restoration.

As for helmets, the granite really isn't adding anything that takes you toward your goal. A Destruction (unique) for damage enhancement or an Executioner Helmet (rare) for damage enhancement + health steal would do the trick.

You didn't mention your accessories but any combo that adds skill points to Agl, Dex or Int will help your elemental damage. A high Int is really going to help conserve your mana. My Dex and Int are high 70s which cuts mana costs in half and greatly increases the number of critical hits (increased damage).

Otherwise, anything that provides melee, spell and elemental damage or mana/health regen/steal.

Standard disclaimer: Of course, I'm no expert, so take my recommendations with a grain of salt. Test things out and see what shakes out.

What should i do about my skill points thou

 

Focus them into Dex, Agl, and Int. Otherwise, place them where you need them to allow you to use the gear you want to be using. This will do the following for you:

-Maximize the elemental damage your bow deals out.
-High Dex increases your chances of getting a critical which doubles your damage.
-High Int decreases the mana costs of each spell letting you set more off before requiring you to recharge.
-High Agl let's you occasionally avoid taking any damage from a hit. Folks tend to choose between Def or Agl. High Def reduces the amount of damage you take on every hit. But since your bow is an air elemental so Agl is your stat.

For an idea what I've done to keep my skill points relatively high check this out.
