Lean's AMBUSH Crit Trapper - 2nd to Level 100 !!

What's your opinion on

1. 20% quality shock nova vs lightning trap?

2. What are the most important quality gems?

3. I am not a fan of getting EE, Shaper and those life/mana nodes. You waste 6 nodes, do you honestly think that's worth it?

Personally I think lightning trap's coverage is superior to shock nova, not to mention the dead zone of shock nova. As for quality gems, I personally think Increased crit damage is probably the most important although every gem has its reason.

EE is in my opinion the most important keystone, resistance penetration scales better than anything against most mobs. Why play tri-ele without it. Against resist mobs or in resist maps it's vital, not to mention the fact that mobs can go into negative resistance thus multiplying your damage.

Shaper for 2 points is equal efficiency to 20% regen nodes with 10 extra int and 1% life regen, small ammounts are very nice because of the fact that you cant leech, and the mana/life nodes are actually more effective hp than 8% hp nodes, but also adding mana regen, so yes, i honestly think it's worth it.

Im playing a variation of this build atm and i one shotted every boss with 3 player hp up to lvl 74 level maps, i dont see reason to go ee, does it get harder later or is it just for enfeeble + fire res maps or something?
Also i have a question about flasks, which ones you use and what you think about diamond flask for this build, sometimes my rng screws me over and like 5 fire traps dont crit into a pack of 10-15 mobs and it gets pretty sketchy, will the diamond flask help here?

EE is just an insane damage boost, if you dont feel like you need it then you can simply not take it. Resist pen scales very hard against most mobs.

As for the diamond flask, Personally I don't like the diamond flask because it's a single use high charge cost flask which takes the spot of another more useful flask. That being said I'm currently spec'd for power charges because I have many players running conduit in my map group. I'm 49.8% crit chance on fire trap with 5 charges, and 9% extra from crit weakness. So personally I'm not having any crit problems but I do understand the need for it. Really it just comes down to whether it works for you so I would say just try it out.

THREAD UPDATED WITH FLASKS

Is there any possible way for you to share your Attack and Defense Tab?

I would like to know the tool tip dps, Crit chance, etc. for Fire Trap, Lightning Trap, and Ice Nova, also Life, Mana pool, Armour, and stuff.

Don't you need any skills for mobility? ex) Whirling Blade, Lightning Warp, Leap Slam..?

How do you deal with Igna?

Yo, what's your take on Rime Gaze? This helmet is often overlooked, but super cheap 5L for fire trap slot, trapper can get benefit of it the most. Replace Maligaro (newb cannot afford it anyway, but Rime Gaze only 2c) with with rare gloves to max res in place of rare helmet.

video?

Would it be better to spend currency trying to get 3 off colours on a decently rolled 6L AR/EV chest or buying a 5-linked carcass jack?

Basically, is a 5-linked carcass jack significantly better than an okay 6 link?

thinking about redoing my shadow into this build

would any of these daggers be ok ?



im interested in some vids of game play , any chance of doing some ?
