PoE Ancestral Protector, Trickster builds

Hey guys, I just wanted to make sure with experts that I understood everything correctly : I'm playing Frost Blades Trickster in SSF (leaguestarted it... it went how you can guess). However I got to farming T16, still getting slapped by Essences because for some reasons i have 159 armor etc but that not what this post is about. As a fellow SSF enjoyer I spend quite a bit of time in Heist, and I got as usual \[\[The Admiral\]\] At first I thought "yeah... seems cool but wont use it" but then I thought about elemental equilibrium (that I can take right away, i'm pathing in front of it anyway

Hi, so I'm done with the league, done 38 challenges, killed all uber bosses beside exarch (I'm bad at avoiding molten balls, would probably have to change my setup for this fight, I dont care that much), done wave 30 Simulacrum w/o much trouble and wanted to share my build, Trickster SST: PoB: highlights of the build: 95% evade chance w/o jade flask, 66% damage from spell hits prevented thanks to Tricksters' Spellbreaker + Devouring Diadem, ~18m dmg (could do higher single damage with penetration enchant on boots but I was too lazy to get it), cr

So this is not a build showcase, it's a work in progress, I'm looking for feedback on how to make the character more powerful without heavy investment - I'm a casual player so I can sink a few more divines in at most. Basically the idea is to do the Snakebite/Frenzy stacking thing, but go crit poison because Emperor's Vigilance, Seething Fury give a ton of extra crit multi, kind of like the Nightblade poison builds. I'm also getting a bunch of crit chance from self-blind with Second Sight Keystone, good synergy because you don't need a high dps weapon since your shield is doing all your damage

Above is a rough day 1 plan for my LS Trickster. I'm going the full armor/ev route because it's easier to get eHP early on, especially vs phys damage, and it also allows me to grab 13 different masteries that synergize with the build. I know Heartstopper is a controversial node, but I feel like it will smooth out the damage I'm taking, even if I don't always notice it or run into some bad rng. Any advice? I realize Champion does armor/ev LS better probably, but I'm really looking forward to trying out Trickster.

WARNING!!! WARNING!!! TRICKSTER IS SCUFFED, Added in custom calcs! Trickster vs Champion We still have Fortify We also have overleech No Flesh and Flame yet Immunities to many negative effects Non-crit Good for more experienced players. VERY tanky! Can also use Death's Rush. Armor or Eva or Armor/Eva shield ---- Harvest reforge, dense fossil, or essences. You need more accuracy than your total life! Capping impale chance via jewels, can use impale support. ----- anomalous blood rage + Frenzies, good for mapping, absolutely NOT needed for the build! If you have issues with fortificatio

Hey guys, i finally put together a POB for a lightning strike trickster. &x200B; This is my league starter ( hopefully) and what im trying to achieve gear wise in the first 10 days to 2 weeks ( depending on how much i can play). Im looking for ideas, suggestions, improvements. I'm not very good with POB, so i will appreciate any feedback. The idea is to scale this all league. Last league i made about 2 mirrors in currency in a month a half of play, so i think i can scale this thing quite a bit. Do you think is viable? The
