Were you quantity farming t16 maps without a HH or with? I made an alt to do it with (until I corruption chambered my rigwalds and it bricked and I was mostly done with league anyway) but was using HH and felt like for a lot of it I just wouldn't be able to kill things or survive in t15/16's in quant gear if I wasn't using the HH.

I did most of the farming with a stygian vise, the T16 incursion rooms gave me some problems so I used a Atziri Flask.

The rest of my gear were (bolded ones are key to clear T16, not necessary for lower content):
  • +2 TS Starkonja
  • QotF
  • Windripper (15% IIQ)
  • Rigwald
  • Sadima (16% IIQ)
  • Goldwyrm (20% IIQ)
  • Ventors x2 (thief's torment is a good alternative, you can drop VP/leech nodes on tree and grab extra jewel sockets)
  • Shaper Ammy (10% IIQ with good dmg and life affixes, the nerfed bisco's is kinda garbage and not worth using)
  • 4x 3+ prop abyss jewels
  • Dying Sun
  • Lion's eye jewel for claw leech nodes
  • Deadeye ascendancy, you can probably go tankier with raider or something else.

For T16 boss I swap to a facetank molten strike build. Maybe well geared poet pen is better, but right now I don't have all the pieces.

I farmed the HH with this setup, so I didn't really use the HH for most of my playtime.
Mods that I like to roll off:
  • Enfeeble (you can't clear incursion room with this mod, possible with Thief's torment instead of Ventors)
  • Elemental Weakness (I roll this off when I'm leveling)
  • Reflect
  • Temporal Chains (this isn't a big problem since I use vaal haste, but I don't like running these as it slows down the clear)

If you don't have close to 5k HP with this setup or TS tooltip is below 20k, I'd recommend taking off the IIQ gloves for gripped or tombfist.

P.S. With this build, you die to random stuff from time to time, but the speed and the loot makes it worthwhile compared to anything else I played. The only other char that came close to this one was a wander build I used in harbinger league, also ridiculously expensive to gear.

I'm considering going for a demi on SSFHC, I haven't gotten to try traps yet so I wanna play a trapper, but on an ascendancy that won't be super competitive. What do you guys think about arc trap pathfinder with trap trigger aoe nodes instead of chain reaction/sunblast?

I found trap trigger aoe nodes to be a good option. I actually played a sab at the beginning of incursion and ended up not getting chain reaction at all because i never really had a problem with traps not going off.

Trigger AoE is completely fine, better even if you end up getting a Tinkerskin somehow. Sunblast is imo the weakest version out of the three because it means you can't stack up traps or anything like that. Keep in mind you'll need one of the Hair trigger jewels asap to hit 18 radius, that's the magic number. Without the jewel you'll be at 16 radius max which means your traps will sometimes not trigger, even if you throw them directly onto a target. It's more of a QoL thing but I wouldn't want to miss it.

If you don't expect much competition for PF in general that sounds like a reasonable bet.

I'll be skipping flashback, even though I was definitely a bit hyped for it. I'll have Monster Hunter World to grind instead soon enough. <3

Go get 'em!

I have no idea where the competition will be. Saboteur and Elementalist would be the most "meta" classes, so they'll probably see a lot of action. But conversely, obscure things like berserker and assassin might see more play than you'd expect because people assume it's a free demi.

But nice to hear that trigger AoE works. I wonder what the most reliable way to acquire a hair trigger jewel is, I suppose it's not a big deal to play without either.

I think scion is going to be amazing this time around.

Hair triggers fairly common, but I suppose you could scour chance a viridian jewel

I've never seen someone actually do the math on the trigger AoE, the gist is that targets are a minimum of 2 units wide (humanoids), which means a trigger AoE of 18 means a trap will always trigger if you mouse over the target. 16 Trigger AoE would (presumably) mean that a bit more than 10% of your traps will miss the target.

When and where that is actually relevant is up for debate. It probably matters most in spots where you're lazy with your mouse or can't directly put it on top of a target for some reason. Should never be an issue with trash clear.

Movement is a bigger issue for trigger aoe than cluster trap spread. Most bosses atleast look like they are prolly bigger than 2 units (don't actually have numbers on this) and its only really on high end bosses that having a trap not trigger even really matters and even then you are likely to be kiting them around as a trapper so they tend to trigger them eventually anyway.

edit: also clever construction makes them invuln for their entire duration now, so they are guaranteed to survive until they trigger after they expire if you are managing to face tank.

If you ask me Inquisitor will probably be a good choice if you go for a demi. Used to be very OP, but now is pretty unpopular but never really considered as unpopular as it's still pretty good.

I won't play this Flashback race, will settle for playing more Grim Dawn instead. Gonna wait for a new league instead, this Flashback really doesn't offer anything new or unseen (wish they'd go crazy and put things like Headhunter mod and just voided the race T_T), and I think a PoE break will be a good thing for the next league. Also it clashes with GSL vs The World which I'm pretty interested in.

RIP. Flame bearers in pit map with sea creatures, couldn't see the bearers untill it was too late =(

Does anyone know why multitstrike reduces the dps of the icy blade of frost blades, the attack speed increase should also make more blades happen no? Considering a frost blades beserker since I have 2x touch of anguish + 2 abyss socket tombfist + lightning coil in my stash.
