What do you think is the best choice for sin?

Pure Trapper?
Spider?
Some other hybrid?


spider is very good but a lot of hybrids work atm

but spider is pretty much a pure trapper with a chaos and other claw in stash^^

so yeah i suggest spider/trapper

65 fcr hybrids are just not really good especially not right now without wsg.

but even fireblast and kick works wonders now without wsg, fblast has an insane range which most ppl dont know about

There any good guides on pure trappers? I gave 174fcr a try and MB felt lot as reliable to stunlock (guides seem to be torn on max MB vs not)

hmm not much good ones but i could help you out sometime if you know which you wanna play

ive been playing sin for like 12 years and got a spider on legacy still with like 11 claws and a lot of setups (trap works with so many things as spider, i have a kick setup and a ww setup and way more setups rly), d2r changed the meta quite a lot where as kick and fireblast and such are now way more useful now ppl can't wsg out of it :)

Damn nice. I played ghost a bit before I quit but like you said, won't work well without WSM.

I think for now I'm focusing on pure trapper, while I get the gear to play a spider

Sent you a PM

Tbh ghost is the worst type of sin you can play without wsm bug

Before you could just combine a top cruel/fools war fist with a rt or fc chaos (depending if you were using hl 65 fcr or craft amu 102 fcr setup)

Now it’s just poop and you’re forced to use 65 fcr cos there’s no good setup for 102 fcr where you can also get 2,77 traps per second. And yes traps are a must have to stunlock in pvp

Not a good char anymore, even tho sin in general is busted in d2r



Have you actually already PvP’d in D2R?

I have, I am at 10 fpa trap laying and 102fcr for Mind Blast and there is nothing people can do except die. PvP is totally broken without WSG.

Plenty of time to lay traps.

Hah, that's interesting.

I was having trouble keeping a barb locked down at 174, but another sin at 102 could keep him locked down (presumably his traps did more damage and put him into more of an FHR lock?) his MB wasn't maxed either.

Yeah I read your post. Just because some players can theoretically get out of the stun and not be perma stunned doesn’t mean the experience for them is at all comfortable. You still need to hit them with damage and I believe the duel in question was against a WW barb? If you play a Ghost, fighting a WW barb is kind of fighting a better version of yourself. You’re not made to fight that build. I am sure a gg sin could beat the average barb but if both players are good the barb should win. In pubs the barb can just sorb the traps and all you have is WW.

I read that wsm glitch still works if you dex bug your Suwayyah from stats on your secondary claw. Is that true?

Does that actually work? I’ve heard some people mention it but it’s expensive to test heh
