LS Trapper Skill Question

:thumbsup: Hey.

I've maxed LS / CS / DS / SW and I am a pure Lightning Trapper.

What now?

MB? Fade? (I have 0 in Fade currently) Shadow Master?

Feedback please. :thumbsup:

Since you are such an awesome PAL, you should know the answer to your own question...Guess it must be the cocaine screwing up your brain

Anyways, 1 point Mind Blast is essential, might want to try out Cloack Of Shadows, although I don't think it's necessary. Shadow Master is also essential in my opinion, she's a world class tank, and can also cast traps/mind blast or in other words an excellent companion. I'm not a big fan of Fade...while it does offer excellent protection I really feel the need for speed. Burst Of Speed helps me lay down traps much faster which is always a bonus, and I can dodge/run away from sticky situations.

I have all those 1 pt wonders such as Shadow Master / Burst of Speed / etc.

I'm just looking for wat to max next.

Lately I have been shying away from the Masters. they can tank but the CoS/MB combo along with a act2 freeze merc really handle the crowds.

Cos is pretty useless vs the big boys but then again hoe many tanks do a Trapper really need? Fade for a trapsin kinds whiffs because of the DR bonus not being used to its; max with no melee.

When in doubt just Max Venom! :lol:

Fire Blast! Nothing like a good backup to increase DeathSentry damage.

If you are going to be stubborn about "pure" lightning, then max a shadow and toss a point in venom for her benefit.

Doesn't putting extra skills into MB increase its Stun Length? I know that because of the PvP Stun length penalty 1 skill doesn't do crap, but with the 102% FCR BP broken with longer MB, wouldn't that be more effective?

I'm 100% PvP so Shadows really do crap... I really don't want to waste points in her...

How about putting points into Fade? I haven't put 1 in it yet... too much in love with BoS...

If you're going to consider PvP, then I'd say max mind blast - the stun length apparently helps a great deal. Then again, I haven't played a pvp assassin lol.

PvM, I'd definately say either Fire Blast or Master, whichever suits you more.

PvP? Ah, shoulda said that in the first post. :thumbsup:

I am in kind of the same situation just that I play PvM instead and have maxed fireburst instead of of a synergy. I am thinking if it is worth more to max a shadow copared to max a synergy? Does the shadow really do any damage on higher lvls or is it just there to tank?

Put 1 on all shadow discaplins. It's even better if u have bonuses for them! :thumbsup:

Hi there!

So would you say that for a pure PvP Lightning Trapper the following skill pt allocations would be ideal?

Max: LS / CS / DS / SW / MB?
And how about the rest of the points?

I've built just about every PvM build there is, and now want try out some PvP ones. Lolz. Many thanks.
