PoE Retribution, Trigger builds

Disclaimer The post is a guideline not a guide, feel free to experiment with your own ideas to fit into the build. I have been trying to form in a HC environment, I personally play HC trade outside of events like gauntlet. The guideline will not make you inherently love playing absolution style gameplay, some people hate it just like traps, totems and other minions. These guidelines will be for mostly experienced players, and will contain quite a bit of information.

Welcome exiles, There's been a lot of interest in this sub for divine ire ignite thanks to the recent elementalist rework. I've spent way too much time theorycrafting and absorbing everything people discussed here (slurp), so I thought I would share my version. (already posted it in response to another thread but I thought it deserved its own thread, and I tidied up a few things since then). So here the focus is on survivability, because I'm really not convinced the other versions posted here are reasonable on that aspect (sorry creator of the "tankyer version", we still love you <3 ), an
