Iso trapper help please

so i made a trapper, and she has 12 skill points left over,

should i add them to fade or fire blast

now my fade is 15 ( 60all res )

fire blast is 23 (1-1.3k fire dmg)

with the 12 skill points

fade (67all res + 12%DR i guess)

Fire blast (3.7-4k fire dmg)



EDIT: OR pump all 12 into mind blast



Thank You!|||fire blast.

i would have said 20 mindblast but since you only got 12 left its a better choice to go for fireblast.

fade is just a waste. you can get the dr from elsewhere.|||Quote:

vouch this.

standard trapper build:

1 fade

1 shadowmaster

20 mindblast

1 wof

20 LS

20 ds/cbs/shockweb (maxes out at level 99)

ls/fb trapper build:

1 fade

1 shadowmaster

1 mindblast

1 wof

20 LS/ds/cbs/shockweb

rest in fb (maxes out at level 99)

if you only have 12 points left and can't max out mindblast, don't bother putting more in, rebuild if you want to do that and max it first. fb is a nice alternative build however and works out nice with the rest in fb after LS synergies since they boost it as well as your LS.

weaponblock/fade are never worth the hard skill point investment on a trapper, leave them at level 1 and let +skills boost.|||k thanks,

and is there a difference bewteen lvl2 mind blast and lvl20 mind blast?|||Quote:

yes. as you get closer to 20 points the shadow starts mindblasting like crazy. It gets moreso as you get to 20 points, this is why people say 20 or 1.

the difference between 1 and 2 points isn't noteworthy, it should cause a difference in theory but in actual gameplay there doesn't seem to be much difference other than a placebo effect.|||it is worth mentioning that a maxed mindblast is actually pretty strong; i mean besides the SM spam frequency.

you can get slvl40+ with decent claws, which leaves you with good physical damage that really pays off in some duels (you even have 102 fcr) and a nice 10sec swirlie duration, which is the maximum.



fireblast is fun but i never found high FB damage builds to actually be better, i.e. more effective in the long run, in comparison to maxed MB.

the better your opponent (skill and item setups wise) the better becomes maxed MB.

against pubs and mediocre players it is a lot of fun to nuke people with a really strong FB (i liked using facets in pubs even).|||DISAGREE.

i'll agree that with a full 20 points Mindblast your shadow will go nuts casting it.

it appears that 2 into MB and the shadow casts it more often than with 1 into MB.|||It is after all, only one point. It won't break your build to have what seems to be a higher preference.
