Leveling

ACT 1
For leveling try to link Explosive Trap with Swift Assembly Support and Combustion Support as soon as possible.

Get Trap Support and level it in an empty Socket for later use.
If you can get your hands on an Anomalous Trap Support take it instead of the normal version.

Get Steelskin and level it till level 13 then stop, trigger it with the left mouse button.

Get Vitality and use it if you have the mana available.

We will use Whirling Blades later to clear maps faster and Flame Dash to get across cliffs or different hights. Get both and start leveling them.

You can also use Bear Trap to lock Enemies in place, but its not needed for the build.

ACT 2

Get Trap and Mine Damage Support and try to link it with Explosive Trap + Swift Assembly Support + Combustion Support as soon as possible.

Take Summon Skitterbots and activate it.

Take Faster Attacks Support and link it with Whirling Blades and take Faster Casting Support and link it with Flame Dash.

Help Alira

ACT 3

Buy Reap and Pride from Clarissa. You can level Reap but don’t use it till your first Lab or you have a Stone Golem. You will have not enough Life regeneration to sustain it efficiently.

Go to Siosa and take Charged Traps Support as quest reward and buy from him: Herald of Purity, Increased Duration Support, Lifetap Support, Efficacy Support, 2x Maim Support and Fortify Support.
It will cost you 1 Orb of Alteration, 2 Orb of Chance and 4 Orb of Transmutation.

Link Frotify Support and Maim Support with Faster Attacks Support and Whirling Blades.
Link Increased Duration Support with Steelskin and Efficacy Support.
Lifetap Support should not be leveled, it should remain at level 1.

ACT 4

Take Summon Stone Golem and Cluster Traps Support as quest reward and buy Increased Area of Effect Support.

Now you should try to link your gems like this:

Linking priority is from left to right.

Reap + [Anomalous]Trap Support + Cluster Traps Support + Trap and Mine Damage Support + Charged Traps Support
Steelskin[Lvl 13] + Increased Duration Support + Efficacy Support
Summon Stone Golem + Increased Area of Effect Support + Maim Support
Whirling Blades + Fortify Support + Faster Attacks Support + Maim Support
Flame Dash + Faster Casting Support

These gems can be linked but dont need to:
Summon Skitterbots, Herald of Purity, Pride, Vitality

You don't need Explosive Trap, Swift Assembly Support and Combustion Support anymore.

Congratulations! You are playing Reap as a Trap now.

Run the Sone Golem to get more life regeneration, you will need it since Reap cost you Life instead of Mana.

You should have done the first Lab by now.

ACT 5

Act 5 has nothing to offer to us.

Make sure you have good Resistance after you kill Kitava.

ACT 6

Get Immortal Call and trigger it with the left mouse button.
Get Brutality Support.

Your setup should look like this:

Linking priority is from left to right.

Reap + [Anomalous]Trap Support + Cluster Traps Support + Trap and Mine Damage Support + Brutality Support + Charged Traps Support
Immortal Call + Increased Duration Support + Efficacy Support + Lifetap Suppotr[Lvl 1]
Summon Stone Golem + Increased Area of Effect Support + Maim Support
Whirling Blades + Fortify Support + Faster Attacks Support + Maim Support
Flame Dash + Faster Casting Support

These gems can be linked but dont need to:
Summon Skitterbots, Herald of Purity, Pride, Vitality

You now got all Skill gems we are going to use.

If you can afford to buy Awakened Brutality Support switch it against its normal version.

EXSANGUINATE TRAPPER

You can simply swap between Exsanguinate and Reap, the Support Gems all stay the same. Use a helmet with an Exsanguinate enchantment.

Exsanguinate's initial damage is higher, but Reap has more damage over time. I think that Reap has more Area of ??Effect than Exsanguinate and also does more damage to individual targets and in general. Just try it out and decide for yourself what is more fun for you.

[Lake of Kalandra] PoE 3.19 Shadow Lightning Trap Saboteur League Starter Build

+ The build has worked great in EVERY league since its inception in 3.5?
+ Does all map mods. (If no regen, use an enduring mana flask)
+ Does all content and scales extremely well. (FEEL the power growth)
+ Not a meta-life build! (Why be pro-life when you can be no-life??)
+ Use mostly rares. (League start & scale to an epic endgame)
+ Can kill endgame bosses on a 5L. (https://bit.ly/3DhVQve)
+ Works in HC. (High-Block! 7-10k ES, ES regen, ES OnBlock)
+ Easy to start. (Play as life till mid-game then go CI or LL)
+ This builds endgame slaps? (Check the videos, see if you agree)

- If you're new, ES can be tricky starters. (My guide will help you?)
- Honestly, having played many other builds, it's hard to find downsides on this one, which is why it became my favorite. (Perhaps needing a Shavs as is the case for all low-life builds)

How to league-start this

I've personally league-started this in every league since 3.5.
Follow the guide and simply level as a life-trapper.
Depending upon whether you want to re-spec some points, you can add temporary life nodes and change them later to ES (check the image in leveling 1-28+ section).

Around the time you reach maps, consider buying cheap ES items for all slots/cheap ES uniques (check budget armor in guide) and switch to Chaos Inoculation full ES build. This is strong enough to carry you to early red maps while you save currency for a Shavs armor.

When to switch to ES

It depends on your experience and your budget.
Some switch as early as act 7 to CI/ES, others level to maps before switching.

If you do not have/can afford a shavs body armor I recommend to pickup cheap ES gear for every slot and choose Chaos Inoculation in the tree. This way you can continue working on stacking ES gear, while gathering currency and get used to being an ES build.

For your shavs, often you can save currency early league by getting the prophecy cards instead.

Leveling 1 - 28+

POB found under the skill-tree category.

PoE 3.19 Shadow Lightning Trap Saboteur Leveling Tree

Note 1: Always path right side first of the skill-tree towards the trap damage points: Blast Cascade, High Explosives etc. I suggest getting the trap throwing speed points ASAP (Expeditious Munitions).
Note 2: These are tree's for full ES. Adjust them with some life if you feel the need while leveling, however mostly i'd just suggest using gear with life stats until you can switch to either low life or CI and then low life.
Note 3: As you progress from Lvl 28+ take a peek at budget items in this guide to know what you should look out for/set trade filters for while you are leveling.

From level 1, you should use Explosive Trap in a Lifesprig, or whichever wand or sceptre you have.

If you're in a Fresh league start, consider doing the vendor recipe for a lightning wand, it's a nice damage boost early on.

1x Magic Sceptre/Wand/Dagger
1x Topaz Ring(for Lightning Damage)
1x Orb of Alteration

At level 4, you should add Bear Trap for single target damage (use it on bosses or difficult rares, it helps a lot).

At level 8, your Explosive Trap link should look like this.

?? Explosive Trap ??> Swift Assembly ??> Added Fire Damage Support(optional if you have the STR for it)

At level 10, you should add Flame Dash for additional mobility or when it's available for you - until then, you should use frostblink.

At level 12, you can finally transition to your signature skill, it's available after the quest; the siren's cadence. Replace Explosive Trap with the following Lightning Trap link.

?? Lightning Trap ??> Multiple Traps Support ??> Added Lightning Damage Support ??> Pierce Support

By level 16, your Lightning Trap Lightning Trap should look like this (gems placed in order of priority, so remove based on how many links you've got).

?? Lightning Trap ??> Multiple Traps Support ??> Trap and Mine Damage Support ??>
Controlled Destruction Support ??> Added Lightning Damage Support ??> Pierce Support

At level 24, you should add Wrath Wrath for additional damage.

At level 28, you should add a Lightning Spire Trap gem setup, this will improve your single target damage by a great deal.

?? Lightning Spire Trap ??> Trap and Mine Damage Support ??> Lightning Penetration Support ??> Elemental Focus Support.

While you continue from lvl 28 and onwards, remember to check the GEM section to get the proper setup going when your levels meet the requirements.
Pierce is an optional gem, decide on your own if you prefer it or rather want more raw damage.

Ascendancy: Pyromaniac -> Perfect Crime -> Born in the Shadows -> Chain Reaction

Pantheon: For Sirius boss-fight, get upgraded Arakaali and Shakari.

Bandit: Help Alira for the 5 mana regen/s, 15 to all resists, and 20% crit multi

+ Fast mapping.
+ Possible as a league starter.

- Somewhat limited methods of recovering life as a spell caster.

[Lake of Kalandra] PoE 3.19 Shadow CoC Ice Nova/Spear Assassin Endgame LL Build

? One of the most fun build to play with big damage for single target and big explosions for mapping
? Life version works just fine to convert to Low Life whenever you have the currency
? Low life version scales great and allows min-maxing for the build
? Fast gameplay, lots of freezes
? Immunity to Crits with Elusive buff
? Immune to all elemental ailments (freeze, shock, ignite, chill)
? High Evasion Rating and Ghost Dance for fast ES recovery
? Many chase items to make the build immortal for end game (e.g. Headhunter)
? You can do almost all league content (Simulacrum, Deli maps, Sirus, Maven etc.)

? This build can not do Elemental Reflect Map
? Life to Low Life conversion will require respeccing many passive points
? It can be expensive depending on the Meta builds for the league

What is Low Life?

Low life (LL) is a condition that applies when life falls below 50%. LL builds are enabled by reservation of life below 50% using for auras like "Zealotry", "Hatred", etc.

LL build allows reserving mana and life together, which means extra auras can be activated. On top, using "Pain Attunement: 30% More Spell Damage when on Low Life" keystone, the builds are scaled to insane DPS potential.

LL builds stack Energy Shield (ES) instead of Life and typically get the "Zealot's Oath: Life Regeneration applied to Energy Shield instead" keystone for ES generation instead of Life.

LL builds can be maximized by 3 key Uniques. These are:

Shavronne's Wrappings: provides good ES and lightning damage, but it is used in LL builds mostly to eliminate risk of dying to Chaos damage. Chaos damage in game bypasses ES and directly applies to health (same as you apply chaos damage. For example Essence Drain or Toxic Rain). "CHAOS DAMAGE DOES NOT BYPASS ENERGY SHIELD" unique modifier avoids chaos damage to kill us instantly due to being constantly Low Life.

Presence of Chayula: Stun Immunity and Life to Energy Shield Conversion are the main reasons to use the amulet. This is especially become even more important to have due to Stun Immunity removal from Cyclone in the Harvest League.

Prism Guardian: Blood Magic support and 25% Reduced Mana Reservation of Auras makes this shield a must have for LL builds.

These 3 unique items synergies so well that most LL builds uses them (e.g. Herald/Aura Stacker, Low Life Miner or Spell Casters). Unfortunately, depending on the early meta during the start of the league, these uniques can be expensive. I recommend not to start the league with this char, but if you want to give a try, go with Life based build and convert to LL later when you have enough currency.

[Lake of Kalandra] PoE 3.19 Shadow Toxic Rain Trickster League Starter Build

+ Alch and go: can run every map mod
+ Survivable with 9k+ EHP, 45k Ev, High spell dodge
+ Great Damage
+ Entry gear is very cheap

- DOT build, so a slight ramp up for max DPS
- Some people don't enjoy hybrid

Build Mechanics

Toxic Rain: Toxic Rain shoots out a base 5 arrows (pods). Pods can stack, so area of effect is somewhat important. Attack speed is massively important in terms of DPS and enjoyment.

Recovery:

With flasks up, we sit at a comfortable 45k Evasion to cap our QOTF, and 50/75 dodge/spell dodge. This means we rarely get hit, and when we do, we proc Ghost Shroud.

Main Link

Toxic Rain - Mirage Archer - Void Manipulation - Vicious Projectiles - Swift Afflictions/Efficacy - Empower Level 4 (Skip if you don't have at least Empower 3)

For your offhand:

Caustic Arrow - Mirage Archer - Greater Multiple Projectiles - Swift Afflictions - Vicious Projectile - Void Manipulations

Auras

Flesh and Stone - Malevolence - Discipline - Enlighten

You can grab reduced mana reservation off the tree if you want to force Blood and Sand, but I'd recommend just not bothering until you get a strong enough enlighten. You can consider running Dread Banner if you have a low enough mana cost on Toxic Rain/Caustic Arrow, but don't have Enlighten. You may also want to use a level 1 Clarity somewhere else in your gear. This will give you access to Clarity mod Watcher's Eye, and Vaal Clarity which can help with early bossing.

Wither Totem

Spell Totem - Multiple Totems - Faster Casting - Wither

We already have quite a bit of duration, so faster casting helps us build quicker.

IC + Blink Arrow

CWDT - Steelskin, Clarity - Blink Arrow - Faster Attacks - Culling Strike

I've been trying out CWDT Steelskin, and I think I like it so far. Play around with it and see how it feels. We also put Frenzy and Blink Arrow here linked with Faster Attacks and Cull.

Despair

Withering Step - Dash - Despair - Second Wind

30 points -> 50 points -> 70 points -> 90 points -> Full

Path of Building Link: https://pastebin.com/78rTAXNR

[Lake of Kalandra] PoE 3.19 Shadow Essence Drain Trickster League Starter Build

+ Fast mapper
+ All endgame bosses viable, including deep delve bosses.
+ Hardcore viable
+ Cheap, clear upgrade path. Shaper 3EX, uber elder 8EX.

- Single target lacks, you are not oneshoting bosses.
- You are a meta slave
- Performs really poorly in the timeless domain
- Requires heavy swaps for HoGM (but can actually do it)
- potentially clunky 1-2 playstyle (altho very fast)

Weapon

Essence Drain - Swift Affliction - Void Manipulation- Empower - Controlled Destruction - Efficacy

There is no variation when it comes to essence drain. You should push for a 6l as soon as possible and buy a level 3 empower. If you only have a level 1 or 2 empower but you have a 6l, you should use Decay support instead

Helmet

Vaal Discipline - Malevolence - Enlighten - Flame Dash

You should put your auras in your helmet because vertex gives +1 level of socketed gems. This means you will only need a level 3 enlighten instead of 4. It will also give a slight damage and ES boost by leveling your auras more.

Gloves

Contagion - Increased Area of Effect - Intensify - Faster Casting

If you use an es base gloves, you should put your Contagion setup here for ease of coloring. Intensify and area of effect supports are mandatory to make contagion's aoe massive. Faster casting is a nice quality of life boost.

Boots

Wither - Spell Totem - Multiple Totems - Increased Duration

I recommend placing a 3l wither totem here. Don't use blight totems, it's lower range, worse hinder and takes a jewel slot. It's a noob trap. Wither doubles our damage against anything that stands 2 seconds in the wither circle, it should be used against endgame bosses.

For your 4th socket, if you do not have aspect of the spider on a piece of gear, you should use flesh and stone in sand stance: Flesh and Stone

If you have aspect of the spider, you have a free socket.

You should put a Phase Run inside. In your skills bar, bind phase run to your left click button to trigger it automatically when you start moving.

Body armor

Vaal Blight - Controlled Destruction - Efficacy - Void Manipulation - Swift Affliction - Infused Channelling

Here you have some choice. For more damage, the best option is blight:

A CwdT setup is also viable with the following gems:

CWDT - Summon Stone Golem - Spirit Offering - Enfeeble - Steelskin

If you do not have aspect of the spider on a piece of gear, you should use flesh and stone in sand stance

Pantheon: Soul of Lunaris and Soul of Shakari

Bandit: Kill All (recommended)
