Tuadh's Notes

In this Path of Exile build guide I go over the mechanics of this build, gems, leveling, gear, sustain and Passive Tree. This Lightning Trap Miner Saboteur Build focuses on taking advantage of the low mine base throwing speed and double-dipping Swift Assembly.

Path of Building: 🛑WARNING🛑: PoB DPS shown is without regarding (double-dipping) Swift Assembly, additional chance for mines to detonate (55%) and Lightning Trap additional procs (15% Chance) https://pobb.in/MWBs-joXjWjy
