    Of course. Though, I imagine it will be disappointment from trap trigger area(I suck at aiming). Don't discount how much potential recovery Tinkerskin can add. Let's say you're throwing 8 traps/s, which is 800 hp/s and 400 es/s. Pyro is going to provide 600 hp/s. Just bored at work waiting...

    Let's assume you're triggering the bare minimum traps needed to keep that 20% regen going, which is 5 traps/s. At 6k life, that's 8.33% life per second. Lower life, which trappers usually have, and higher traps/s(quite easy to do if you're tossing 4 per activation) will make this much larger.

    I think the popularity of old Vaal Pact proves there no such thing as enough life recovery ;)

    Yes, BUT traps triggered by Chain Reaction don't count as triggered by enemies.

    @James This is what I wound up with doing Tinkerskin - MoM - EB Yes, the gear is perhaps too ideal, but it's just how I do builds to normalize comparing them. I generally know which affixes can be prioritized. Only question mark is how much trap trigger area is enough.

    Well, you can't run EB+MoM+Malachai's Awakening ;) Well, you can, but you definitely shouldn't. There seems to be 4 variants: Life - Loreweave - Malachai's Awakening Life - Loreweave - MoM Life - Tinkerskin - MoM - EB(?) LL - Shavs - MoM(?) The questions marks imply optional. I still want to...

    You lost 1 from the helm enchant, not two. And since MS projectiles hit Shaper-sized targets at just a bit under 50% on average, you effectively lost 1.5 balls. If you were playing a build that had 14 projectiles overall, your overall LoH is now ~22% lower. Forum - Marauder - [3.4]...

    The hit to MS is small, I doubt you'll notice it.

    You get ES armor items and ES affixes where ever you can, it adds up quick to ~3k ES with many modifiers on the tree. The issue ends up being proccing Tinkerskin. Chain Reaction blocks "trap triggered by enemy", so I'm tossing this idea. Why do you think a build centered around Malachai's...

    PoB The Malachai + Loreweave numbers are real though, I got almost to 6k life playing that build in Incursion. I'll admit Tinkerskin + EB might be a bit expensive to get it to 9k life.

    @James What was his eHP compared to your other dude? Malachai's Awakening + Loreweave has great dps and good mitigation, but a bit under 6k raw HP. Tinkerskin + EB has a fair bit less dps, bit less elemental mitigation, but almost 9k raw HP.

    Malachai's Awakening! There's Tinkerskin + EB too. I'm honestly not sure I like builds where you have to be concerned about mana costs.

    I think it was Linus Torvalds that said C++ gives you just enough rope to hang yourself with. I have no problems with C, the language is good at what it's intended(low level and performance). C++, in attempts to stay modern, has grafted on lots of ugly constructs, keywords, and symbols...

    Shaper trap gloves do not cost 10 ex. @Vorph not sure, was wondering the same myself. Spent the last couple hours cooking up a LL trapper and I cannot get the ES to satisfactory levels. As in, worth the investment, greater than 8k. Damage isn't turning out that good either because LL is...

    That would make sense, but you gotta give up Loreweave for that. MoM + Lavianga's + Loreweave seems to be the dominant setup. Lavianga's doesn't seem like enough during boss fights.

    Why do trappers and miners usually go MoM? I haven't seen a build that has the mana sustain to make MoM much of a benefit beyond the first hit. On top of that, trappers and especially miners usually have quite high mana costs. The only time I've played traps, it used Malachai's Awakening and...

    Yeah, this helps diversify CoC builds. Juggs, for example, might have issues reaching a consistent crit rate to keep CoC on cooldown, but this will help.

    Yes, as of 3.3, traps is one of the best starting builds and based on your build choices, can scale into one of the best end game builds.

    Path of Exile

    You are right, I completely read it wrong! We'll have to see how it scales with the damage done vs mob's health, but that's a pretty strong addition to cold CoC. Dual Cospri's(Ice Nova and Frost Bolt?) and Cyclone - CoC - Glacial Cascade is looking pretty nuts.

    Both is a valid answer and the one I was expecting. I gave up on Homecoming as well. They took a game that was a few tweaks away from greatness(timing of release not withstanding) and fucked it all up. They changed the art? I would say the premium card art is the one remaining redeeming...

    I've tried both, admittedly not to the same level(much more investment in traps) but I found traps much better. Both start out with the huge problem(to me) of you click a button and nothing immediately happens. You have to wait for your traps to arm or your totems to place. Depending on your...

    Arc traps can one-shot shaper phases. And if your build isn't up to snuff yet, just use fire traps instead.

    @Vorph unless you intend on doing lots of boss killing with your miner, I would stay with traps. Mines are just clunkier but higher damage. If anyone would like the character name "IllegalMiners", let me know, I don't plan on using it.

    Because reddit and people are dumb. LL affects both builds equally, so take that out of the equation. My guess is that they're referring to stat sticks since they only affect GC.
