please explain how this works!
HOI triggers fire nova mine? how?

Sry my fault, Fire Nova Mine or any other mine is used to trigger the Bomb Specialist AoE effect. You only need to put some mines down and use your traps with inc AoE.

How are you sustaining the traps? With clarity and mana potions?

I think the +7xx mana with 60% regeneration and clarity will do the most of the job.
I cant tell yet if you need additional potions

[edit]
If the mana is not enough in endgame, you can move to additional mana +20 +20reg in the top of the tree

Having a lot of fun with this build. 1-shot every boss and all his minions and anyone else that steps up.

This will get nerfed. No way this can be a "thing" for too long.

Why Frenzy Charges? Do traps benefit from more cast speed? or is it solely for movement speed bonus?

Frenzy Charges gives you with 6 up 24% inc multiplicative damage, which is huge.
The castspeed is not really useful because the trap cast speed is low

Ok . I just thought 4% more damage doesn't apply to traps. Looks like I was mistaken :)
Please, could you tell me which stats are good for this build on weapon? Elemental and Spell Damage?
So it doesn't matter if I run dual-wielding or 1h-wepon+shield? I think Rathpith's Globe is good for this build?

nvm im dumb

Rathpith's Globe

Looks good.
I cant tell the best possible equipment right now, but if you want more Def i would go with a shield and 1h, without acrobatics at first.
I'm currently running 2x 1h sceptre's. The good thing about traps is, they scale with spell- ele- & trap- dmg. added cold is a really good second stat but any added ele will do it at first.

Because we only need a 6L on the chest, its your choice to run 2h or 2x1h.
A nice 1h combo is Doryani's Catalyst & Rathpith's Globe

How do we even get Frenzy charges ? my only idea is Blood Rage right now ... but i aint seeing that in your gems, could you tell me how we are getting those ?

Edit: I am retarded. i just arrived at the Node and know what gives us frenzy charges now.
