Previously I would always recommend sab early for the quality of life (life sustain, aoe, ailment immunity) and only recommend trickster if you only care about damage. However, with call to arms support being added that alongside enduring cry and restless ward should let trickster get some decent life sustain and 28% movement speed from a chest you were already happy to use.

How would you play this using Inquis early on? The variant mentioned in your description seems to match up the sunblast setup w/ ice trap of hollowness + vulconus which is avatar of fire focused. Is this intended? What's the benefit of going that route vs staying with cold damage?

@@brandonlumsden8688 Oh do I have an inquisitor ice trap build listed there? I Thought I just had an explosive trap of shrapnel one. Funny thing though is if you just swap explosive trap out for ice trap of hollowness, replace hypothermia with cold to fire, and drop magmatic strikes (move fire mastery to explosive impact) you still have a really solid build. You could also do more normal stuff like using white wind or just a good rare and swap battlemage for inevtiable judement. You could also go heatshiver that would just give up a lot of defense, this PoB I have does freeze super hard though so it would be literally free with no changes besides swapping frostbite to ele weakness pobb.in/xDwAp9T_6e5S For leveling the inquisitor I would probably level as normal arma crema stuff or righteous fire. You won't have trap throw speed early so it might not feel the best. Once you get your third lab (battlemage) you could consider switching to firetrap of blasting, ice trap of hollowness or shrapnel. Ideally around this time you can get cheap battlemage weapon like white wind, nycta's lantern or rebuke of the vaal etc. I would stay elemental overload pretty much until you get your last ascendancy point. Regardless on your question about vulconus, it is just a powerful battlemage weapon alongside spellblade regardless of what skill you are using, especially if you can easily convert some other damage type to fire like phys skills cold skills with Pyre/cold to fire. It gives a ton of crit and flat ele and phys (even better with hatred, herald of ash etc.). Also, the fire masteries are super powerful compared to other elements.

Very nice. I rolled an extremely scuffed ice trap of hollowness sabo on affliction jsut to get my watchstones, and switched to a zoomer build after. I didn't push it much further because without any guides and pretty much 10 ppl using it on poeninja (one being me :'( ), I had 0 idea how to push further at the time. I felt it was a very powerfull skill w sunblast, 2s duration felt really nice and with sabo AOE increases I didn't feel the gap in the middle at all. Will def try this build, ty for the detailed guides (I'll level a couple other trap skills and test them out just in case)

No problem! Progression early should be pretty easy once you have sunblast, you can use white wind + heat shiver if using hollowness, and just nycta's lantern should give a ton of early damage for shrapnel. If void batteries and badge of the brotherhood are cheap I'd switch to those after that. The super top end is going to depend on whether ralakesh is nerfed because if itsnt you would do that package (ralakesh, void battery, malachais loop, badge, inner conviction etc .). Assuming it is nerfed I would probably do something like that leaderships price setup I have (you could use secrets of suffering instead but harder to get scorch that way)

Hey man first of all thanks for all the effort! First i was thinking going bama necro, but since it gained so much popularity it will cost a furtune. I mean a Covenant will be much harder to geht rather than a sunblast 🙂 Also like 8 Years ago when i started poe in perandus , my second char was a an ice trapper 🙂 I really do like the clear fron the IT-Hollow version and havent played Shadow for a long time so iam really keen to give it a shot this leauge as starter. Iam kinda tore between SAB and Assasin and in my mind iam thinking the dmg with SAB and the mentioned cheap uniques should be good enough do most content, maybe later when i have the divines switch to assa and get a forbidden jewel from the SAB? As you mentioned Trickster is a solid option for dmg but iam scared that the loss of the AOE compared to SAB will be meh for mapping. Assa and Trickster seem to do the same dmg according to your pob if i only swith the asc, both have the pros and cons (what would you choose if you need between trickster and assa?) Antoher Question i have is, why arent you using any sort of Cluster jewel in your POB? 2x Assert Dominance from ele cluster coud compensate for aoe loss in my opinion Final thoughts for myself, i guess sabo it will be but iam still not sure xD

No Problem and thank you! Between trickster and assassin I would probably choose trickster strictly because of restless ward giving you a lot of movement speed and now sustain through call to arms + enduring cry. Later on once you can afford charge stacking gear I assume assasin is probably the strongest (ralakesh boots, void battery, malachai's loop, badge of the brotherhood, militant faith with inner conviction/dominus, power charge helm). It woudl require leveling a new character but occy (have a video on this version) would also be really strong because she also gives you the AoE that you lose moving off of sab. The reason I'm not using cluster jewels and better gear in general is because these are supposed to be early league build templates you can use to get an idea of how these kinds of builds can be built rather than minmaxed endgame setups. In general you can make all the builds I post stronger by including cluster jewels, awakened gems, forbidden flesh/flame jewels, watcher's eyes, timeless jewels etc and swapping some gear/points I have dedicated to suppression for other tings since if you are not HC you probably don't need that at 100%.

Thank you! Oh man that is super funny I absolutely love lightning conduit of the heavens and I just played a ton with it on my last 2 watchstone run character. Unfortunately the damage was a bit lacking, probably still going to make a video about it but it needs work. Probably posting that tomorrow or the day after. If you want to check out a previous video I did called "Quad CoC Saboteur" I was constantly swapping between lightning conduit of the heavens, arc and crackling lance of disintegration on that build. It doesn't really have spell constraints, so you just pick 4 you like. You could certainly play lightning conduit of the heavens with traps though. I also would probably play it as mines since I tend to go mines for skills i want to go crit (better crit support) and I think mines feel smoother personally. I would have to check that conduit targets properly for traps since some skills are weird like that or they just straight up don't work (bricked a league start rolling hexblast traps the league it got reworked since it just didn't work).

Even less than that if you take the 30% mana cost as life mastery or use the 150 es regenerated per second while a rare/unique is nearby. The only real reason to get around 4-500 es is for yoru blessing.

I've league started this, reporting: Levelled with rolling magma + flame wall. Bit meh. Lvl 28 started using ice trap. Idk if it was better than explosive traps at this point, but explosive seemed like higher dps for ST. At lvl ~40 I dropped 1 chaos and bought the trans gem and it started to get good. After first lab, go the node that gives are of effect and DAMN YO it slaps. That node had a BIG impact during the campaign for me. Got a white wind for 1c at maps, and my dps almost doubled. Was using pretty shitty gear (except jewels, had 3 each giving ~30crit mult). Managed to buy the belt on day 1 for 50c after a lucky drop, and oh boy was I glad I did it. Tripled my DPS again, and now it's over 1 div. Got a heatshiver but I'm not over yellow maps and at this point more DPS isn't doing anything for me. 5L and 6L are miserable to buy due to ppl playing DD, hate that build now lol. Got 1.5 divs after selling a 6L I wanted to use, but can't really justify the price rn and after tomorrow it'l be back at 10c. My very scuffed build, with a basic setup and some magic jewels that I intend to corrupt to use with adorned later. I haven't upgraded most of the gear since campaign, other than the main upgrades. Overall very solid and strong build. Nice. pobb.in/zMWcEZBPCCQc *The mastery that increases charge duration is VERY IMPORTANT. Idk if it's a me problem, but I can't sustain charges without it, dunno why but the skitterbots barely seem to trigger my traps. With it, it becomes easier to sustain max charges while mapping at least. Much better than 3% dmg per charge.*

That is awesome I'm glad to hear it is working but sorry about the charge issue. I did not extensively test that outside of verifying it worked since my practice runs were ssf so no sunblast and when I played with sunblast last league I had ralakesh on. Charge mastery does seem smart though. If you could squeeze in a call to arms + enduring cry now that you have increased duration on your charges it might help you keep them up.

Going CI would make sense since it solves the chaos problem and you could swap withering presence to vile bastion for stun avoidance.

Most of the PoBs I have included should also have trickster trees since there are minimal changes if you are more interested in that. The way I view it is you choose trickster if you want damage over quality of life and defenses (at least early league). Trickster in my PoBs generally was something like 30-40% more damage but to get that from sab you are giving up 82% increased AoE, 15% reduced damage taken, blind, 10% life regen per sec and shock and ignite immunity. Now with that said, now that call to arms is a support trickster might be closer defensively and quality of life wise. Trickster can pop on a restless ward (great trickster chest already) alongside call to arms support and get 225 life regen per second and 28% movement speed. Fuck Idk that sounds pretty hot. Maybe trickster is the play now

They are super super similar.

Now that we know Ralakesh still works this league occultist/assassin are probably more damage but the charge package still works perfectly well on sab and you get to keep those nice baseline defenses.

Besides, every game mode besides HC trade (Occy, my build last league is here) has sab as the largest % of ascendancy choice for ice trap of hollowness, explosive trap is way more tricksters.
