I'm tired of Sorcs so I want to play something else.

I know Sin or Druid is not as good as Sorc as reset char, but I'm choosing between the two.

Trap Sin

vs.

Fire Druid

With the recent changes, which one would be better for farming and PvM??

MUST be able to do Chaos Sanctuary effectively...

Fire may be good if the physical damage is enough, but early game those chars aren't the best. Windy is tanky and can deal pretty well with most chars, but the damage is Mediocre. Trap is weak without Infinity, it's a terrible early Hell char.

Trap sin takes the crown easily. Fire druid will struggle due to fire immunity, not only in cs, but in getting to A4 hell effectively.

Trap sin on the other hand is one of the easiest chars to level up, has a great deal of safety built into her kit (fade) and requires little gear to kill enemies. This is because she comes with 3 elements: lightning (lightning sentry), fire % physical (death sentry's explosion). Do yourself a favor and throw on some crushing blow and put a point into kick to clear out bosses (such as diablo) faster

General tips on an assassin:
Get trap claws from Anya and consider farming cows in the first few days of the ladder reset to get decent socketables & runes, your death sentry is gonna do a lot of work there :)

good advice.

The thing is, fire druid will have physical + fire now.

Sin will have either Light + phys or Fire + phys...I don't think there are enough points to go both light and fire traps together.

Fire Druid will cap out in early nightmare. Trapsin is a good late game char even with low gear and no infin

Trap is fine, death sentry makes up for the lack of damage
Hammers prob best bet to start with, can turn him into smiter after you find all the good gear
