    I'd rather kill Uber Elder than farm A9 quarry temples. I mean, that IS what I ended up doing. As frustrating(and expensive) as it can be to learn new encounters in this game, that type of grind is even worse. It's like farming up an Oni-Goroshi. How long is going to take? 2 hours? 6 hours...

    Also, fuck the asshole that came up with the RNG for "Use these Devices". Fucking ridiculous. I ended not doing that for my 37. Pity those deciding to go 40.

    Fuck this fight. Accomplishment? Frustration? IDK, a little bit of both. Can't say the experience made me want to farm him. Shaper, sure, but not this fight. 4 sets, that was my last portal. My traps finished him off. I was shield charging around like an idiot. Maybe the fight will get...

    If I understood ZiggyD correctly, while a flame is on a target, it hits 10 times per second. So more flames improves flame uptime on a single target. You're likely right that you won't hit that limit though.

    Sure, I'm curious. You were using conc effect fire trap to clear? Seems kinda annoying. I watched ZiggyD's video on flamethrower trap. He said it has a limit of 10 hits/s on any single target. So, I guess extra flames improves the uptime on that 10 hits/s? Did you try it on Uber Elder yet...

    I'm not following you. Which flamethrower helm enchant helps flame trap? Also, I have no idea how to quantify flamethrower trap dps. Malachai's Awakening still might be better than +2 helms.

    Shaper down deathless first try on my arc trapper. Nothing to brag about, but I thought the comparison was interesting since my arc/ball lightning character failed in the 3rd phase. Not sure what conclusions to draw from that. I was using fire trap for single target...not sure it's that good...

    I'm not sold on Lightning Spire trap. On bosses that move around and/or are skinny, I have no idea how to quantify the real dps of the skill.

    I'm playing arc trapper too. Plan on transition to a 5L arc trap in gloves, fire trap in body. But that honestly might not be necessary. View Profile - Path of Exile - Deathwing6 Curious that you went wands. Why not a dagger or sceptre?

    Agreed. I'm not a fan of it for bossing, but I suck at bossing, so...don't take my opinion for that part. I'm currently putting the finishing touches on arc/fire trap sabo. They, uh, might have buffed traps too much. I know trappers don't have the best defenses but it's easily been the least...

    Good thing I asked then. Shaper/Elder rings seems pretty empty for trappers then.

    Interesting. I'm considering getting an elder ring with warlord's mark on hit so I can have endurance charges while mapping. Not sure if that's worth overwriting my CWDT enfeeble though.

    So, I know things like leech and "your attacks" don't work with traps. What about "on Hit"? Rings look pretty boring for trappers, trying to see if a shaper or elder ring would be an improvement.

    Even if a debugger is not an option, old school print statement should still suffice. That he's throwing his hands up in the air and saying is too hard should be a warning sign.

    The key to shield charge is to hold down force move while you're using it. And to not spam it. You should tap frequently and then allow the force move to get you around obstacles. This can be tiring on the hand if you have yet another skill(Flicker Strike) you're holding down in the RMB.

    I never used that bug, but even now I'm getting sick of ancestral call. It was great at first, look at all these melee skills that are viable again because now they clear with some modicum of speed! Unfortunately, it made a whole bunch of melee skills end up feeling all samey. You basically...

    I have no doubts that it is largely practice. There's also a dps check, it's pretty loose on Shaper, but more punishing on Uber Elder. Also, you can make up for lack of skill by just brute forcing the boss. Easily applicable with Shaper, less so with Uber Elder because power has not crept far...

    As I recall, I had two main problems. No on-demand-movement skill made dodging things like balls or beams much harder. I would also get vortex adds during his bullet hell phase. If I had a real movement skill, I feel like I could easily zipped out there to pop it before the phase started...

    I can't seem to do Shaper with the build. The lack of movement skill and slow ball lightning makes it feel a bit immobile. I'm not exactly experienced with the fight either.

    I'm surprised there's a build that chieftan is best for. Cyclone is not channeled, so if you activate it, it will spin until where you clicked. The only way to combat this is to always hold cursor as close to your character as possible.
