You won't melt much with your current gear, because there's not much fundemental to it (look at me, using all fancy words and stuff in English~).
I'll try to be as straight forward as I can:
- Like toku said, replacing your weapon gem with an Emerald should help a lot. This should be the first thing you fix
- Put a purple gem in your helmet instead, for now (later you'll want the Diamond)
- Never use normal gems in jewelry
- Always use 3 legendary gems, in your rings + necklace
- Your cubed RoRG (ring) won't work because it only works for 2 sets and you're wearing 3 sets at once. I suggest you remove your bracers (put on Reaper's Wraps if you have the recipe to craft them, if not, maybe check what else is in your inventory). Once you remove the bracers, you should be getting the 4P bonus from Rathma.
I know you're still gearing up obviously, so rerolling on your gear is probably a small waste. But you can do a little, to help you farm for gear faster.
But if you want more better rolls on your current gear for survivability, try this:
- Chest: Reroll Armor to Vitality
- Helmet: Reroll Life Regen to Critical hit Chance
- Boots: Reroll AllRes to Armor (same with your pants)
Just a small tip: Intelligence also gives AllRes, so you never want AllRes as a stat on your gear. Armor is important though. It's the same but opposite with STR/DEX classes, where STR/DEX gives Armor, so you'd never want that on your gear.
Since you're wearing 3 Rathma pieces, you should be using the Skeletal Mage skill. Your skills don't really compliment each other, so I would try changing them completely. The page is long so you don't *have* to read all of it. Just change your skills to the ones on the top of the page, and read the paragraph on how to use the proper skill rotation.

Since you already have 3 Rathma pieces, I would suggest you aim for this build:
https://www.icy-veins.com/d3/necromancer-skeletal-mages-build-with-rathma-and-jesseth-sets-patch-2-6-season-11So change whenever you get any of these items, (although the Scythe won't work without its shield, so you should have both before switching weapons).
Sorry for the long post! If you're ever around when I am, we can play together and I'll give you whatever drops that I don't need. Doing loot share groups is a pretty efficient way of gearing up. You can also ask for a loot carry in one of the in-game communities.
Also, your Necro's name is hilarious.
