[3.3] Noodle's Arc Trap + Lightning Spire Trap Saboteur (Budget 2.2M+ Shaper DPS)

Newbie here, so sorry about my dumb question. I know that i can most of skill gems from Lily but i cat seem to find the freezing trap you mentioned in you leveling part? can you tell me where i can find the the skill?

Im sure they meant Freezing Pulse

inpulsa's decent to use if thats the only armor i have on hand atm? ( i know the explosion doesnt trigger, but the shock effect increase still good right?)

Inpulsa's been discussed earlier ITT, considered rather poor choice for this build.

I dont understand passives tree in this build.

Crit build using Cracling speed instead of Throatseeker - more DPS

WWblades as movement skill, but no Coordination passive, like who wants to go fast right? :D

Nullification = 5% life and 8% all res + eva / es, well its good, but i would get Expeditious Munitions - 16% trap throwing speed! also trigger area + dmg

Scion life wheel nodes are great, but for MoM type of tree (you still get 5k life + 2k mana or 4k life + 1.6k mana with bad gear) i would rather get for my passive points little less life, but more dodge and dmg, so i suggest to go into right bottom section of tree instead of Scion life wheel and get this nodes:

Phase acrobatics, Heartseeker, Herbalism

Endgame optimized passive tree here - little less life, more dmg, more utility (dodge, spell dodge)

I did mean Freezing Pulse, as was pointed out. My bad! :)

As you level farther, you'll want to look for daggers with:
1. Increased Global Crit chance (Golden or Platinum Kris)
2. Global Crit Multi
3. Mana regen
4. Increased %spell damage

Are those in order of importance? This is my first build and I'm looking to upgrade my daggers soon; want to make sure I'm getting my money's worth. Depending what I find these might be 'end-game' until I can afford Shimmeron. Thanks!

I would say for MoM it is order of importance; if not MoM spell damage > Mana regen.

Would the Trap damage Daggers be good from the temple? or do the Spell dmg daggers just outright trump them? Are the trap dmg daggers good to use untill i get some Spell dmg daggers, is what im trying to ask :P

Absolutely! The build is intended as budget so if you can afford (or are lucky enough to find) daggers with good trap damage + crit chance, that's awesome!

What should I upgrade next? I don't have enough currency for 6L Tinkerskin (and I like the playstyle)

And second, how are my Gloves compared to +Trap and +1 Additional Trap? Would they still be an upgrade or is +%trap dmg and +%crit multi good enough?

Getting + 1 additional trap is huge, especially with chain reaction in terms of damage. It's a more multiplier of damage so it's a great upgrade!

Otherwise I'd say maybe look for better jewels. I avoid physical damage added because it doesn't scale as well as lightning, spell, or even elemental damage.

Why choir of the storm? for lightning dmg? I believe traps can't tripper he's lightning bolt?

Lightning damage + crit chance based on lightning resistance. You are correct you cannot trigger lightning bolt.
