Blacklistedhxc's Notes
Showcase of my last build this league - Fire Trap Sabo.
This is a fun build for people who want to try a Sabo DoT build that is comfy and simple to play because its a one button playstle. Toss the traps, walk around and let the burning ground do its damage. Mapping is super smooth as well thanks to ingite prolif from glove implicit and Legacy of Fury.
My take on the build is a bit different than others I feel. Why don't I use a Skin of the Lords with Ghost Shrouds? Well because I only have 385es and with RF active the small EHP provided by having it up every is negligible for large hits. I chose to use Skin of the Lords with Magebane for the last bit of spell suppression needed to hit 100%.
This lets me use Legacy of Fury during boss fights, which provides the scorch effect on nearby enemies. You can use scorch ground boots with spell suppress & chaos res if you want, but I don't want to have to walk around to apply the scorched ground and prefer to have it as an AoE.
Mageblood is needed to hit this level of DPS I feel because it lets you use the 3 elemental flasks for reduced damage effect, lowered mana cost, and regen. The lowered mana cost & regen are valuable to my version because I can fit in a lvl 20 Vitality. With that and 2% life regen after being hit on boots, and 5 traps triggered recently allows me to run Divergent RF while still having some regen for a massive boost to DPS. We have no issue with 5 traps triggered recently because of how quickly we can throw traps and the ascendancy node Chain Reaction.
Most of the gear was self-crafted using recombs. The shield took a lot of attempts to move +1 fire & spell damage onto EV/ES bases with 30% spell suppress. RF builds don't care about spell damage but Fire Trap scales well with it.
There is still a lot of upgrades I could make to the build, but I'm done with the league and just wanted to try one last invitation. Most uber bosses were a breeze on the build (Sirus & Exarch were the difficult ones) and was a great time. Please GGG don't nerf Fire Trap.
This build can easily be done without MB, and Ruetoo has a build that he invested about 20ex in and cleared everything but 1 uber boss. His PoB https://pobb.in/4zRETuizlkGb.
My PoB https://pastebin.com/gcmJnrUu With one unique nearby my DoT DPS is 15.4m.
Edit: deleted my previous post from a few minutes ago because it said "MB + 40-50ex" but I forgot to include the fact that my Watcher's Eye & Ashes are worth more than the 40-50ex in my previous title, I apologize.
