Thanks for taking the time to do this :) - I see that you have taken an alternative route through Meantal Agility/Spell Power/Saboteur on the updated Non-Crit, is this your perferred method now that should also be applied to Crit Build?

Obviously this is a silly question, but the lose of +24% Trap Damage (from Master Sapper) is preferred to pick-up the DoT Nodes and the shift into Blaze etc?

Cheers,
Swift

the problem is you're spending 3 dex nodes to go down south where as you spend 2-3 int nodes to grab the ones up north depending on the build, the main reason for it is most players start as a non crit trapper then transition into a crit trapper, this will allow you to save many points on the build.

Both routes would be perfectly fine, OVERALL you might actually gain more by going for master sapper instead of the shadow tree but it would cost you more in the end for a respec, both builds would work just fine

Been doing alot of party play and still trying to figure out the most effective way to shock stack. Glad to see my storm call suggestion got you thinking about more efficient ways, which led to the shock nova quality route.

I've actually dropped my Maligaro's gloves, effectively losing 50 crit chance and 50 crit multi, for the Deerstalker boots. I basically had a really nice pair of yellow boots (Life, Tri Res, 30% MS) which I have replaced with the Deerstalkers. The loss in life and res on boots I have regained with a nice pair of yellow gloves, even gained some max mana. In addition, the 45 life on deerstalkers is all gain as Maligaro's had nothing. In the end, I lost the aforementioned crit/crit multi but gained some life, max mana, and a 5L.

Now, I've decided to go with 20% shock nova, ele prolif, multitrap, AND a 20% added lightning. For group play, this route has definitely proved to be far superior. Yes, I lost some personal damage but I now have a 40% chance to shock and my group is eternally grateful.

However, I've been playing with another idea and would like your thoughts. Completely ignoring my personal damage as far as my "shock-stacker" ability pertains, I'm thinking about trying another combo in my Deerstalkers. Now I know that Shock Nova hits multiple mobs simultaneously when thrown into a large group but how would Arc fair?

20% quality Arc which chains 2 additional times (20% chance to shock)
20% quality Added Lightning (10% chance to shock)
Ele Prolif
Multitrap

Would Ele Prolif work as quickly as I hope in this setup?
I throw out 3 traps, a mob triggers one and gets shock stacked, ele prolif spreads the
ONE shock stack within that fraction of a second BEFORE the Arc chains.....
Arc chains and hits second mob, shock stack TWO, prolif, and each mob has 2 stacks
before the third and final chain.....
You see where I'm going.

If this would work as above, could we go a step further and potentially increase our chances to shock even more? Try dropping Multitrap for Chain

For testing purposes, we throw just 1 Arc trap that has a 30% chance to shock not
counting crit chance. In addition, it now chains 4 additional times. Could we,
potentially, throw one trap into a group of mobs and almost instantly have a 3 shock
stack?
OR would those 2 additional traps thrown with a multitrap be more beneficial than 2 additional chains?

A question to be answered, will ele prolif only spread on that initial trigger or will it continue to prolif with each additional chain?

Anyway, sorry for the novel but I hope you get the picture. I've spent alot of currency lately and getting a 20% Arc will take a little time unless I get extremely lucky. If you have the currency and think it's worth a test, I'd love to see the results.
