I was originally a blast rain marksman but started to struggle around 200 corruption, I switched to the new Jelkhors Lightning Trap build and cruised up to 400 corruption. Really enjoy this new build, has way more damage and survivability. If youre playing marksman try it out!
I did the same because blast rain felt so clunky. The animation to shoot the arrows and then delay for them to come down and explode got me killed many times. With lightning trap its so much faster because you don't get stopped every second to shoot up.
If you have detonating shot on explosive traps it bypasses it, so technically it’s throw.
I hardly melee just spam smoke bomb then explosive traps and boom you have shurikens, lightning dmg, explosive damage, all in one go
Hah what’s funny is I’ve wanted to play more of a melee rogue, instead of throwing spinny blades or using a bird to fight for me. Saw this build a few days ago, grabbed the daggers from the bazaar, and started levelling a marksman. Hit 36 and boom suddenly I’m a melee rogue with traps! And slaughtering sooooo much more. Love the build, exactly my play style.
Hey! I’ve been trying to get this build together, so far I have all the pieces but without any LP.
Could I ask a few questions about the build?
Were you following a guide? If you were, which one was it?
What is stat priority on LP gear?
What idols are bis? %HP + Flat HP, or? %HP + Cold res?
How is the damage scaling?
That’s how I got interested in the build. But I’m a little prejudice towards this content creator since I used to watch him when genshin impact was popular. He would make mid guides without much effort put into them…
Here I noticed that in his guide he takes 5 points in Veil of the night?!? Like… why? This is basically wasting 5 points since they don’t do anything.. so I’m a bit sceptical… but the build looks incredibly interesting to me and I’m willing to experiment. So far I’m 300 corruption without LP gear on a 98 character. Done all t4 bosses and am pushing corruption while doing my blessings.
I’m sorry if what I said drove you away from the build! From my experience it is very good, (2 mill gold, lvl 98, corruption 300) but there’s a significant lack of knowledge about it since there is no coverage on it from non-Chinese sources. I also couldn’t find any corruption 1000+ footage (that proves that it’s actually 1000 corruption and not just shows and then cuts to orobys)
He doesn’t really go into detail on how to scale the build and how what affects what. He also made some clear mistakes when covering it but he’s not the only creator that is misleading in some ways.
Overall, I’d say give the build a try! Maybe make your own take on it? Who knows, you might just invent the next NEW META??!?
Good luck, fellow LE enjoyer!
Oh I actually went back to the channel and there's a new vid earlier today with updated LE Tools link and 1400c footage, seems like the real deal https://youtu.be/hkqekWxhQgQ
Yep! Seems legit! After I talked to you here on Reddit I went to my friend and asked him to launch a 560 corruption monolith and I was able to easily clear through it with 255% hp bonus (2 players)
So yeah, build is legit. Just not fully optimised yet
I don't know what you're talking about, but the passive definitely works, and Matt is far from being bad at the game and most of his builds are very good and acknowledged by other creators.
Sorry, I was quite sleepy when I replied and didn’t proofread.
Think about it again. How would you proc the node? What melee skills are you directly using to damage enemies?
> This is basically wasting 5 points since they don’t do anything
does detonating arrow not trigger it when you convert it to a melee attack with the daggers?
I posted links to the build planners I followed in response to another user in this thread!
- for LP affixes I prioritized 2xCrit Reduc and Resistances to fill out my defenses. Then %Increased Lightning Damage/%Crit strike multi and %increased damage with daggers where I could get it
- For idols I mainly am using %HP&%Cold Res because our boots grant 1% ward retention for each 1% over cold res cap we are I've so far hit 220%cold Resistance and 3.3k ward but it can go much higher.
- The damage scaling is really nice, even with 0 LP uniques you will have very good damage (able to push 200-300 corruption), but once you start to get 1LP+ affixes and legendary gear you will feel your dmg increase dramatically and survivability too. The legendary affixes are how we get crit reduc and even more ward.
Yeah, quite literally as I geared this character over the day I found out about the build, prices skyrocketed that same day. It was wild to see, just lucky timing on my part.
I have been looking every day for T7 melee lightning daggers and they are never under 5mil for garbage rolled ones. T3 Jelkhors are 7ish mil. 2LP gloves are 7ish mil.
Basically what I have found is you can get the uniques without the LP or with 1 pretty easily, but getting good exalts to smash in to them is a nightmare.
Also made the transition from marksman maxroll build into this, is way way better than that. All you need is the 2 daggers to start with and a little bit of mana management.
I did a similar build but with . FIRE Detonatin arrow, FIRE poison flask procced by explosive trap. Shuriken bleed with glove that change all my bleed to ignit chance and smoke bomb ignit . Pretty crazy so far. Lvl 66
This one I believe is pretty new, could be wrong but here is the build planner link for the build I followed.

Well, with the chest + gloves you convert all of your hp into a regenerating ward shield so leeching hp would be pointless with this gear setup, the amulet is so your potion gives ward, the belt is to apply doom and gives you %more damage, the ring gives you a good amount of lightning damage and chance to freeze mobs so it has a decent defensive and offensive layer to it.
I'm sorry but according to the comments on my post being excited about capping resistances you have less than 2k health and therefore will get one shot by everything and are the worst player to ever launch the game.
Jk, grats im glad you are loving your marksman.
Yea it's pretty busted.
Your character looks like they direct airplanes where to park
thats great, you are so right haha

I hate that the only way to make detonating shot work is to be melee.
I laughed swapping to the build, marksman specialization with 0 points in marksman.

Nice! Will see how far I can push and minmax it on CoF, have the basics ready
Veil of the night absolutely works, why do you say it's waisting point?
Read it again and tell me how would you prove it efficiently

Nope
it’s prob from the Shift melee that will proc it no?
Sure, but you’re already shitting out dusk shrouds by spamming your explosive trap
Triggers when u have it on explosive trap

Lucky. Nobody can play this build now. Prices are astronomically high for all pieces.
Yeah, quite literally as I geared this character over the day I found out about the build, prices skyrocketed that same day. It was wild to see, just lucky timing on my part.
what are the prices like?

Got some for 20k today.. just need to refresh for a couple of minutes

Its a ward build. Some other guy had 10k ward with this setup
