Summary:
This build is pretty interesting... I was playing around with a 2-man farm team (this build and a Protection Monk). I put Recall on my Monk buddy as soon as we get in the map. We find a suitable mob and setup. The Monk hangs back well out of aggro range, I either Apply Poison OR hit Trapper's Focus, then he slaps a bunch of protective stuff on me (Spellbreaker, Mending, Protective Spirit, Succor, etc.). I then hit Whirling Defense and Death's Charge into combat. If you went with Trapper's Focus/Throw Dirt combo, Throw your Dirt in their eyes. Then plant Dust, Barbed, and Flame traps. If you brought Poison, Tab-Space until you get them poisoned and use Oath Shot to plant more traps - also keep an eye on your Whirling Defense, hit it if it starts to go.
When the shit hits the fan (or when I am out of energy or have all my traps cycling) I just cancel the Recall enchant and warp back to my monk buddy, which un-aggroes the mob. Then I start the process over.
Notes & Concerns:
This build would be incredible I think with multiple trapninjas and correspondent protect monks to back them up. 2-4 of them going in at the same time would be some nasty carnage, and the best part is the Monks never even have to engage the enemy.
I do need to retest this build however with the changes to Shadow Stepping... from the description of the change, I think it's still a feasible build, but I will need to field test again to verify I can Step far enough to ditch aggro.
