why not use Fire trap , i think make dmg on AOE is better way. cause bear trap can take dmg just 1 enemy or not??

and why in your guide in power charge generation is suggestion to use ice spear if you add Ancestral Bond(passive totem) that

mean you can't deal dmg to enemy by spell right ??

i just play POE pls answer my question.

You won't deal damage with ice spear, but it will still generate the power charges.

oh i see thk u , and how about between fire trap and bear trap which one is the best ,and y not use Freezing Pulse because it has cast time just 0.65 its less more than Ice spear.

Ice Spear has a higher chance of critting thanks to the 2nd stage Spear that gives 600& Crit.

Ice Spear has a higher chance of critting thanks to the 2nd stage Spear that gives 600& Crit. You also don't have to be up front to get the power charges with Ice Spear, where you would have to be up close to monsters with Freezing Pulse.

ok thanks,now i'm clear :)

I'm just starting to use the ice spear to get power charges from critical hits. My question is whether the totems created benefit from this statically (based on my state when the totem is cast) or dynamically (based on my current potentially changing state). I mean do the power charges work on the totems only while I continue keeping the power charge spheres spinning around me? Put another way, if I see some monsters for the first time in a while and I have no power charges, so I cast my totems then I shoot ice spears and get some power charges from critical hits will the totems start hitting harder or do I need to cast new totems? I can't figure out which way it works. :-(

Thank you in advance for the help.

Hey !

I have a question, why do you use elemental weakness instead of conductivity ? I don't get it.

The suggestion is to use both. I only use one curse and so of course use conductivity.

Is this build still viable for HC?

You might also want to use Elemental Weakness if you are teaming since Elemental Weakness will likely help team mates more or if you use Fire Trap for additional DPS.

I use both. Fire Trap is great to simply increase DPS against groups of enemies; Bear Trap is great against single target enemies.

Have you tried the multiple trap support gem yet? It is really nice on the fire gem but reduces damage on a single target for my bear trap. Anyone's opinion welcome.
