[For Trapper] Searing Touch vs Fencoil
|
It seems I need some advise with this two.
Searing Touch is very good but it only focuses Fire Trap as well as spell dmg. On the other hand, Fencoil has "+X increased dmg" which affects all skills and also Bear Trap >.< So far this is the only weapon with the highest "+X increased dmg" |

Bear trap is ballz

Pretty sure Fencoil is limited to 3 slots, despite being a 2 handed weapon. Any white 5 or 6 link would be much better for traps.
Bullshit, you get the game for free.

41% increased damage is pretty low. Searing touch is def better unless you go for a cold or lightning spell trap. But in that case I'm thinking you're better off with a good +2lvl gems rare staff with 100+ spell damage on it.
I'd say this staff is ok for an AA summoner, but that's it. Good life/mana bonus to make for the lack of a shield, the possibility to have 2 5/6Links in staff & chest, the trap support giving +22% more damage to zombies or spectres. IGN : @Hrrrrrrgh

the ting with the max 3link should be confrimed,it seems strange to me since there are 7links ingame (BoR or Marohi Erqi)
i see where/why you get the idea of 3links at max (the itemlink and the slots it uses in the inventory are kinda strange too) especialy for an EE+EB trapper this staff can be very powerfull (there arnt any 2h weapons with life mods on them if i remember correctly and the increased mana can be stronger than notable passivs) and 50% increased dmg for all traps isnt much weaker than the 90% fire/spelldmg you would get from searing (as lnog as you dont focus on firetrap/burning dmg as main dmg source ofc) |

You can get a 6L plated vest, so you can get a 6L gnarled staff. It's a 2H so it can roll 6 sockets if its ilvl>50

" Thing is, when you run a trap-spell setup, you're going to want to have elemental penetration gem. And probaby added elemental damage too. So for, lets say lightning warp, you're going to go trap - multitrap - LW - light pen. Maybe added lightning now that it's been buffed. That's 2 or 3 gems at least that benefit a lot from +2 gem levels, which you can get on a rare staff, on top of 100+ spell damage, a mana roll, crit for spells, etc. I'd say this new unique staff is pretty bad for trappers compared to rare staves.

" unqiues can be exceptions but normaly they have a"warning" for that i.e. no sockets (kaoms) |

Gnarled staff is 3 slots max. Period. There is no room for discussion.
