Video of some new 0.11.6 Trap Gems

As soon as the lightning trap was announced for 11.6 last week I started making a trap build for it. Can't wait to get my lightning traps so my damage goes up.

Sadly I see many people using them as supports for a different main skill. But I'm confident my build with the lightning trap as the feature ability will be very strong.

New trap skill looks good. Level is nice too, could be usable in races.

Support seems fine as a line. Cone wouldnt allow reliable deployment in narrow passages or through doors, nor would it be nearly as functional when kiting in a straight line.

That +1 traps node needs to add to the reserve count, btw. Its pretty useless as is.

general respec @ 1.0. does this mean one act more, more than lv 100??? maybe 120? anyway the trap loox great :) when does this patch come?

Wow, I actually thought about making trap shadow, that's gonna be great patch :3

Nope, I guess Fire trap will be the one this works badly on. Damage penalty will neuter ignite and burning ground doesn't stack anyway. However, multiple trap support might make trap support more appealing, three cold snaps in one cast, anyone?

Liking the cone idea.

ground burning is secondary DOT should not be changed...is poison arrow DOT reduced by LMP?

Wasn't saying it will get reduced, it will just receive no benefit with 3 traps over 1.

i want this as a skill not a trap :-D
for me traps is just as boring to place as totem

new stuf looks amazing...pretty sure fire traps DOT wont be affected so that means trap support will triple fire traps damage...holy fuk!

u need to fix one thing make the 3 traps lay down in a cone \1-3/. a line isnt gonna work.

AFAIK... No the DOT or "degeneration effect" from Fire Trap won't be effected... But then again you can't stack the burning DE from Fire Trap.

The official Release Patch 1.0.0 is due end of October (around 23rd or a bit later). It will contain extra new areas for Act 3 and a new Act 3 boss (seen in the POE Trailer). I doubt there will be a new level cap... Most new zones will be similar levels to existing high level zones (maybe a few levels higher)

GGG are also working on Act 4, which is due mid-late 2014. Even then I doubt we'll see a new level cap. GGG have mentioned before that new Acts won't simply be higher levels, but rather offer alternative areas in which to level/grind/farm in.

Awesome! Looks like a nice skill. Thanks for the hard work in creating such a great game!!

Great support gem; gonna revive my fire trapster after the patch. Oh and cd is only 2 sec on lightning traps? Nice.
