I counted 4 different builds, well, 4 different Elites.

Shockwave, Spike Trap, Gladiatior's Defense and Escape.

First 2 are trap.

I believe the premise of the second one is Apply Poison + Cyclone Axe

their was one purple drop, it drops at 1:10 in the video.

Anyways, nice job! that cyclone axe/Apply poison build is kinda freaking me out though, because it's nearly identical to my old W/R troll farming build: (Apply, cyclone, bonetti's, glads d, shield stance, heal sig, troll, sprint) it still works, but is too slow to be worth it...

Somewhat poor build design. Trapper's Speed is far superior to Serpent's Quickness in a build like that.

Thats debatable.

You'd need tests to prove it.

Its 25% Cast Faster and Recharge 25% faster, vs 33% Recharge faster.

The test would be whether the 25% casting faster really makes up for the loss in Recharge faster. Which I doubt it does :\

It's Vivaldi's Four Seasons, but I don't know who is performing it and giving it a rock feel.

Sorry if that sounded more flamey than was intended. Was trying to point out that Trapper's Speed would let you do more damage.

-Yes, it makes up for the loss in recharge. QZ + Trapper's Speed is amazing on a level that makes it difficult to explain. Trapper's Speed Reduces animation time and recharge, so you save time and gain even more recharge reduction by finishing the trap earlier and starting the recharge sooner. Take a look at it and you'll figure it out rather quickly.

No, actually, SQ works better. 2 second cast time*(100-25)%=1.5 second cast. 20 second recharge time*(100-25)%=15 seconds. 1.5+15=16.5 seconds to lay a trap plus recharge it. (This was Trapper's Speed)

SQ:
2 second cast time. 20 second recharge*(100-33)%=13.33 seconds. 2+13.33=15.33.
Also, I believe it's actually rounded DOWN, so that would be 15 seconds for SQ vs 16 seconds for TS.

[Edit] Forget the rounding comment, I was thinking of something else. 15.33 for SQ vs 16.5 for TS. Which makes it an even worse comparison for TS.
