The Battle-Trapper is BACK and STRONGER!

ATTRIBUTES: There are a multitude of ways to fix any attribute requirements, it totally depends on the gear that each individual player ends up with. Usually the easiest place for STR/DEX are belts, boots and rings. Aisling is also a great way of getting stats as she can deliver 70 stats in ONE mod. (35/35 str/dex) Temporary sources for stats are the skill-tree +30 nodes and/or bench crafting any open suffixes you have. GEM CHOICE: In the order you should add them: Lightning Trap, Swift Assembly, Trap & Mine Dmg, Lightning Penetration/Charged Traps/Inspiration Support (these 3, add them as you can/please, if you need more mana free'd up, inspiration, if you want more throw speed charged traps etc) GEAR I have tons of videos on my youtube about crafting and gearing and even if they are from previous leagues, 99% of the information remains valid. Self-crafting our gear is EXTREMELY easy because we can use dense fossils for a majority of it and they are cheap (check my craft videos on my YT). (For resonators I suggest delving and using all azurite to buy 1 slot resos from niko) You do not need a +4 body armor! I'm wearing it because I'm min/max'ing. This build performs great on a regular 6L shavs. Alternatively, you can buy a very cheap +2 traps corrupted shavs and link it with tainted fusings. (Remember you always bench craft 4link before you try tainted fusing and keep re-4-linking it, until your tainted fuses hits 2 in a row, i.e. to go from 4link to 6link) For coloring, we have 3 green, 1 red, which means 4-off colors so by far the easiest way to color our shavs is with tainted cromatics. If you don't have any or can't buy them, I suggest spamming "at least 1 green socket" via crafting bench. Double multiplier jewels cost typically 1-5c and provide a ton of damage once you start picking up jewel sockets. Remember we can use a ton of different multiplier stats: i.e. spell multiplier, lightning multiplier, elemental multiplier, global multiplier etc. MASTERIES: REMEMBER to change masteries later on when you go from life build to full es! e.g. 30 life per trap trigger is useless once you've gone CI or LowLife. ASCENDANCIES: Pick whichever you prefer first. My own favorite first pick is "One Step Ahead" as it provides throw speed, movement speed and makes you freeze/chill immune. My most recent character if you want to look at my setup/links, is found here: https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/oestergreen/characters Name of the character is LightningTrapForever Remember!: Cluster setup is your LAST points towards lvl 100 and Jewel sockets are your 2nd to last points, so around lvl 86+. Note: Note: If you lack trap throw-speed, remember it's craftable on multiple different items. (Throw speed exist on jewels, shaper gloves, essence of zeal crafted belts and bench craft belts) Note: Many skillpoints are adjustable based on your own currency/budget and what items you happen to drop/obtain. Note: I league-start my build always and I only go for jewel sockets when im in the 86+ and can afford decent jewels. Before that, you're better off investing those points into early trap damage nodes and/or survival. Around lvl 65-68 is usually a good spot for switching to full ES with CI (or low life if you can afford a shavs). Getting CHEAP 1alch/1chaos energy shield pieces is easy as they often are far far cheaper than equivalent life gear.
