[1.0.2] Tri Element Trapper

*** Aha! I figured it out. I downloaded some crap software and was able to record a Mountain Ledge run. There's no audio and that capture software made my mouse cursor all strange for the video...rofl.

Is this build hardcore viable? I noticed you don't pick up any resistances and you only have about 178% max life total in this build! Seems really fragile.

I think this build looks pretty good though


Uh, might wanna take another look at the build. I have 40% all resistances in passives. 18% each just below Scion. The Hybrid AR/EV node with 10% below Scion. And both attatched 6% nodes up near Shadow and down near Duelist.

Also, I'm not gonna do the advanced math on all this, but to make things more simple. I do have Mind Over Matter. That causes 30% of my incoming damage to go to mana. Which means whatever my HP is, it is now 30% more "effective" because of Mind Over Matter. I currently have a 3800 HP pool, which means Mind Over Matter is at a minimum worth roughly 1100 HP.

And when I said "simple" math, I didn't want to figure out the calculations on the fact that I have 190 mana/sec regen...which means the 30% that continues to hit my mana pool is quickly regen.

And lastly, this is my build for Domination. If I was going to roll this build in Nemesis/Hardcore, I would prolly skip spending the 7 points it takes to get "High Explosives" in the top right corner of the skill tree in favor of 7 more HP nodes, or maybe 5 HP nodes and spend the 2 it would take to get the other big Evasion node near Scion "Elusiveness".


Nice thanks for the help. It's only worrisome because some monsters hit for 4k+

I've actually built my own nemesis trapper build based on your domination build, just now beginning to level him. Hope it goes well
A good software to download to record urself is OBS (Open Broadcast Software) and you can set it up to capture the image on your desktop.

Also could you verify the rest of your gear? In the video there was certain animations coming up when enemies were being hit by your traps.

Certain animations? Not sure what you mean by that. But here's my gear. I still haven't got my chest to 6S/6L for Fire Trap. And in my shield, I'm looking to put a quality arctic armour in that empty green socket instead of using Enduring Cry. Not sure if it's going to stay that way but wanna give it a try for testing purposes.

Do you think its worth to buy an 4 or 5 linked carcass? Are the increases aoe DMG and Radius boosting your DMG or is the Differenz to a nice rare 5l not essential? Thanks
Hi Arkon, I've noticed you use unleveled Reduced Duration gems in both Lightning and Cold Snap Traps. Is this on purpose? Can you explain?

If Reduced Duration level is important, I would suggest putting it in original post.

Temporal chain reduce the dmg of ignite. I've had much better results with ele weakness. Also multiple traps reduces the freeze time of cold snap. I took that off and replaced it with cold pen. I also don't think deerstalker is required, I don't even think it's a good item.
Ya, ele weakness is a must.. I carry around temp chains for uber quick mobs and the chaos bombers. Ele weakness is the nuts. ~lvl71 on Nemesis, didn't follow this build.. though it looks better than mine

Also agree with trap boots not being necessary

Need to upgrade my gloves, wep etc

Quite the opposite. Temp chains INCREASES the damage of ignite. The 1/3 damage per second remains the same, but instead of 4 ticks, temp chains increases it to 6 seconds, that's a 50% boost to your ignite damage.

Also, I have seriously thought about ditching deerstalkers in favor of other boots. My plan was to use Cold Snap-Trap-Ele Prolif-Cold Pen as my 4L. The way I have it set up now was amazing for leveling and such, but the higher you get in level, the more obvious it becomes that cold snap is only there for the freeze while Lit Shocks/Fire Traps do your main dps.
