Poison scales off chaos and phys damage. Also would swap Added Chaos for Trap Damage.

I would as well but I am going to be using a Str/Int armor. I will be lucky to get 3 green and 2 blue. So for 2 blue I plan Added Chaos Damage and Concentrated Effect (or increased AoE for clearing maps faster).

Is lightbane even required? 50% of OP double dipping would still be OP. Saves the gem/chroming headache

It has lvl 11 trap support with 0 quality and no base move speed before you throw first trap
I would not want to use it in end game. And then you can use stuff like Atziri step instead that is just awesome for Acrobatics build.

It is in relation to not having a 5L and "problems" with colors. You are throwing traps all the time. Throw and move, throw and move.

I think you should do as you want, but you might contemplate remove two points from the Constitution wheel and add them to get Blood Siphon instead. It gives you 5% more life and 20 more str. Not sure the 3 points in Toxins is worth it. It is even debatable when on 100% chance to poison.

Ah you saw my old tree, I edited the post twice and added new tree Blood Siphon and some small optimizations. I forgot it originally.

3 points in Toxins I think is worth it because I can get 3 jewels and 75% to poison and with those 3 points it is 85%. Also 70% boost to poison damage is kind of big. Don't forget, BladeFall with clustertraps poisons same target many times and 70% boost is worth it in my opinion. With 4 jewels I could remove it, but where to put those 3 points to get a boost to damage? 3 chaos damage nodes?

DoT-only damage increases *cannot* double dip

The term double dipping refers to modifiers that scale BOTH a hit AND a resulting DoT that is already based on the hit.

No, I decided to not do the physical to chaos conversion, I am losing out on good damage, mostly because of using crappy items in slots that don't really contribute to this build. This is not like the fire to chaos build where you get two daggers that give 140% spell damage boost and body armor that gives +1 to fire skill and bonus fire damage...

New plan is this passive tree: www.poeurl.com/Vix (not poe planner link: www.poeurl.com/Viy)

I will not be converting to Chaos but using as many Extra Chaos from Physical stuff that I safely can. That means I will be using 3 key unique items. Wand 15% (http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Obliteration), Shield 10% (http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Broken_Faith), Ring 20% (http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Ming%27s_Heart) and 5% from passive tree.
I plan to use 3 unique jewels that each gives 25% chance to poison with trap and passive tree gives 10% more so I think that should be enough.
For body armor I will probably be using Belly of the Beast and Southbound Gloves on glove slot for massive boost to life. Amulet, one ring, belt and helmet will be to max out of evasion, life and resistances. For boots I will try to keep the Trapper boots for long time and use it to have Bear Trap after I 5L my body armor and put Bladefall in it. If later my survivability suffers I will replace it with Atziri's Step unique boots for bonus spell dodge.

I will be using Grace aura and low level Clarity to help with mana issues. For potions Witchfire Brew will be my required unique flask that will be my one curse. Anyone have other suggestions about aura, curse usage?

While leveling I will be using Jaws of Agony Shield and trapper boots to use both BladeFall and Bear Trap with decent links and switch to above items once I can 5L my body armor.

I should be able to reach 5000+ life with this and 40% dodge, 30% spell dodge (without Atziri Step), 50% evasion with flasks up and with Vaal Grace which is my vs boss ability a lot more of those.
With never standing still except to throw a new set of trap I am thinking this should be enough.

I use the unid version, and keep Q pieces for 3c/3r, and have done so for over a year. I alc jewelries, or now essence them, if they are shit, which they likely are, I throw them into a singular chaos/regal tab, but I don't spend too much time with that, though.

I do this because I play a lot of builds throughout a league - typically 6-9, so I need the chaos, to buy stuff I need, as this is not a very effective way of playing.
