Howdy friends

Had a couple questions with a wildly underused skill

I'm not going to stand up here and claim that blade trap is good.... But I do like being extremely off meta at all times lol.

So divergent blade trap makes your blades go "faster".....

I'm of the opinion that this means instead of over 4 seconds... You do all 10-12 of your hits over less time?

With enhance, and divergent BT and ashes, this gives us 148% increased rotation speed..... So will this do the damage over 2ish seconds rather than 4?

Provided we can throw enough traps quick enough, this should create a nice more multi?

This is just a rough outline of the build....

But I think if I can throw 15-18 traps (multi trap) in 2 seconds..... And they all hit.... I should be getting approximately 18m shaper DPS with my impales...

Can anyone confirm that my math is correctish... And that I'm interpreting this divergent quality correctly?

Feel free to give me some feedback as well. My life is pretty low, but the 50% block, 100% suppression, and 20k unflasked evasion do add some nice layers.

Was thinking of also using some bear traps with alt quality for duration to have an extremely long slow to keep bosses In their place for fights.

Thanks!

Edit: after a quick test, it does indeed spin faster, damage faster, and finish faster. So it should (in theory) help mitigate both the slow speed as well as become a more multi (if I can throw traps fast enough, but I have specced into that)
