[3.3] Octavian's RainbowTrap Fire Trap Build. Everything viable.

I have also spent quite a bit of time and currency on this build, and I'm not doing anywhere near as much damage as the OP (for example, versus the Hydra map boss).

For trash clearing it's fine, and it does indeed do decent damage (although the playstyle is a bit slow and clunky, it's not a fast build). But I'm not doing near as much damage as Octavian... also, it's a pretty damn squishy build.

Can anyone make any suggestions? Link to my character:

Many thanks for any input.

Looks like you're just missing the good enchants. I am too. That increased attack speed helped with shield charge. Oh, and your shroud needs the +2 lvl of trap gems. It's a big boost. I've lost count on how many exa I've spend on this.

I've killed everything except uber elder. I've tried ~5 times.

Is this a good flashback league starter? I kinda want to avoid arc trap meta but I want to be a trapper.
Is the double corrupted chest essential for this build or it would work with non-corrupted chest piece?
What do you think of this build in the 3.4 patch and Delve?
will be there item/skill gem changes for this in 3.4?
Hello Octavian, i want to use your build to start 3.4 any changes from 3.3?
Yes I would like to know as well. Very intrigued by this build.
Still viable with 3.4 and increased damage. Although im thinking about doing the setup on sab for more damage mit over the +3 all res
Saw this on a site as a 3.4 league starter. Thoughts? When I look at it it seems expensive and hard to optimize (leveling res in particular).

It sure looks like fun though, and I'd like to give it a try. How is it leveling, and can it grind for currency to afford best items?
