[3.3] Crit Fire/Flamethrower Trapper! - League Starter

I want to try out a trapper build, but I'm still in doubt if is better to start as a shadow/sabouter or a witch/Elementalist!

Since I've no experience on this type of game mechanics, I really dont understand what are the pro/con

Could you please help me understand? ty

Hmm so basically it comes down to where you start on the passive tree and the ascendancy choices.

The elementalist ascendancy has good choices but it's hard to beat the trapper specific choices that Saboteur has to offer. Another choice is going Ascendant and picking up Saboteur along with another node of choice.

At the end of the day play what you like and experiment. That's what the game is all about!

This will be my 3.3 league starter. Thank you!
Anyone have ideas of 1-handed weapons to use with the shield. I am guessing a spell crit dagger?

Edit: I talked to a friend and a fire crafted Sceptre seems to be the best choice.

I usually don't mess with it until I get to guardians and know a little better of what works with the new skills. So that might take some time. I have to start with everyone else I don't have early twitch superstar access to 3.3 =P

Just realized, master sapper might not be as important as I initially thought.
Since the limit for traps was raised to 15, and with sabo your traps pretty much detonate instantly, so its probably not as big a deal as it used to be with the old 3 traps limit.

Still very nice to get frenzy w/o charged traps, but its not gonna break your neck using that gem lol

I've updated the tree's with two variations. The links you posted above don't seem to work in PoB for me =/.
