[2.2] Cheap Ele crit trapper - HC viable
Hi Guys,
This is a very cheap build for new ascendancy HC. The build can be done self found. Build highlights: - 190% max life (can tune for SC, sac. some life nodes for more crit. nodes) - Lots of crit from tree as we select shadow assassin ascendancy Pros
Spoiler
- Can be done self found (very good for new league)
- Reflect immune - Good clear speed - Can do most map mods (except blood magic) - Not dependent on unique items to start up (check gear section for end game uniques) - Party friendly Cons
Spoiler
- Not as fast clear speed as top end builds like COC discharge, mjolner, LA and TS bow builds
- Not a tank - Possible to do atziri on SC with fight knowledge, HC not tested/recommended. Defenses
Spoiler
- Lots of life, can have 7k+ ehp depending on gear
- Can have 8K+ evasion rating with grace aura (depending on gear) - Shield block chance - Arctic armor - CWDT setup - Being a trapper usually avoid most of the danger Tree Bandits: Oak + SP + kraityn Assassin ascendancy: Unstable infusion, Deadly infusion and Ambush. Gem setup
Spoiler
Weapon: Grace + AA + clarity (lvl it only till you can sustain mana cost, get some mana regen on gear as well) (for SC can replace AA with hearald of thunder)
Shield: CWDT + gmp + arctic breath or CWDT + immortal call + increased duration (with doedre's elixir - 3 endurance charges) Chest (5L): trap + fire storm + trap and mine damage + elemental proliferation + conc. effect Gloves: blood magic + whirling blades + faster attack + fortify Helm: lightning trap + vaal lightning trap + lightning pen + ele prolif Boots: ice trap + cold pen + cluster trap + trap and mine damage Playstyle
Spoiler
Use ice trap to clear the white mobs, for magic mobs use lightning trap to spread shock and then use ice trap. For rare/bosses use ligtning trap and fire trap (can also mix in ice trap to clear ads).
Once you get doedre's elixir + restless ward, use doedre's elixir to keep the charges up. Gear choices
Spoiler
Weapon:
- Crit chance/multi - Spell crit chance/multi - Spell dmg Sheild: - ES - Life - Spell crit chance / spell dmg - resists - evasion Chest/gloves/helm/boots - EV/ES base - life - resists Jewellery - crit chance/crit multi - life - resists - ES Some Uniques that can help build: - Divinarious - Maligaro/facebreaker (crit multi) - Doedre's elixir + restless ward (use it once you have good chaos res.), will hep in maintaining 5 frenzy, 5 power and 3 endurance charges. [Thanks to hegemony for finding this nice combo for maintaining charges] Current gear perandus HC:

Sorry guys for not updating the build guide, was busy IRL, now that I am playing the build more actively will be updating more frequently. Updating lvling tree for starter.
Also, I think we don't need MOM + EB, can run using mana also, trying that out, will update the tree if that works nice. That'll free up some nodes. Will upload videos soon. Last edited by Tereng#1784 on Mar 17, 2016, 2:47:32 AM
