Waiting for POB to get updated, then I'll put up a 3.17 tree (it should be very much the same as 3.16).

I'll also try to fix an updated leveling PNG 1-28.

And I'll release a video with information regarding the LTrap changes and how we'll perform! (TLDR: I believe we will be GREAT).

Amazing! Can't wait :)

Just a thought, but what about Swift Assembly + Blastchain mine? You can double dip on Swift Assembly throwing 1.6 mines, and then blastchain mine throwing out 1.6 traps. The less damage component is somewhat offset by the 5% more damage per mine in sequence, and the homing nature of the traps coming out of the mines makes it easier to ensure every mine hits.

I wish PoB updated so we can play around and check.

What will the Mark changes do for this build?

How is the build vs the pinnacle content from 3.16?

Simulacrum 30, uber blight, flawless breachstone?

For 3.16 I know 3-4 people who did that content with the build, I myself did up to wave 26-28'ish -- I probably could have done the 30th, but it depends on the mods you get, plus I only ran that stuff 3-4 times in total).
You can still see my scourge character and my gear, it wasn't "WOW AMAZING" considering the league/availability of corrupted gear.
HOWEVER, to put those things on "#farm" it does require heavy investment (as you'd expect, if you're aiming to farm pinnacle content)

But can you do it, certainly.

As for 3.17, it's hard to speak before we get actual numbers in POB with the gem changes, but on paper I'd say it looks like we got buffed overall.

And it looks like a great league to have a solid bosser that also is a good all-arounder with decent map speed once you get trap throwing% and movement% :)

After I started with this Trapper in 3.14, I am back in 3.17 using this as my starter.

So nice that you still update and curate this guide, oestergreen.

Wishing all you guys a good leaguestart :)

Good to have you back mate and you're very welcome :)

Thanks for the answer, did everything with this build in 3.15 and had a fun time with the upgrades, will wait for the new POB and your final verdict :)

any1 tried this in HC with any success? how squishy it is?

There are definitely safer builds for HC, because this one requires you to get gear going before you really can layer defenses (block, regen, regen-on-block etc) -- or it requires you are experienced enough to play as life/evasion and then convert to ES once you've farmed shavs/es-shield etc.

I streamed doing lightning trapper HC act 1-10 + early maps in 3.15, but i doubt any sane person did HC in 3.16 scourge.

You can stack ES and get to 10-12k.
Blind/Shock/Ignite/Stun immune (stun from chayula) and aim to get max or close to max block.

We're definitely not squishy once you get the gear going, but until you have recovery% on a shield and a good pool of ES, you have to play carefully in HC.

I'm struggling a bit with physical damage from mobs ~at 6 act, any tips how we can boost our defence while leveling when league start?

Yeah that's what I was worried when I was digging into tree. I remember having a lot of fun in Bestiary HC league when I was playing GC Mines, was just checking new mechanics in standard for few days in following leagues or skipping them completely. Wanted to play more this time and explore new atlas in HC (when i Was in beta almost no1 was playing standard) but I'm struggling to find a build with mines/traps that is tanky enought to give me as mediocre player a chance to reach lvl 90+ ;d
