Smoke Bomb provides mobility and a damage boost, and it's crucial for defense. The Cleanse node helps you remove debuffs, while Shadows creates additional copies of Last Epoch gold Umbrell Blades, giving you more projectiles for your bladestorms.

Explosive Trap

A fully automated skill that synergizes well with your cold conversion. The Trap Sprinkler node increases damage and adds more traps. It's a great way to boost your overall DPS while not having to focus on micromanaging traps.

Passive Tree and Focus

At level 95, my passives are mainly focused on Dexterity, which is crucial for increasing cold damage and enhancing survivability. Here's the breakdown:

Rogue Tree: Prioritize Dexterity, Evasion, and Agility for defense and damage. We are dual-wielding to maximize our throwing and damage output.

Falconer: Allocate 5 points into Raptor Wings for Explosive Trap.

Marksman: Focus on Concentration for Dodge Rating and damage mitigation. Focus Fire is also essential for maximizing Damage Output.

Blade Dancer: Key nodes include Throwing Speed, Movement Speed, Critical Strike Multiplier, and Critical Strike Chance. This increases your damage and attack speed, which are vital for maintaining high DPS in fast-paced fights.

Gear and Itemization

Your gear is what helps elevate this build to its highest potential. I've compiled a set of items that help maximize damage, survivability, and efficiency:

Relic: The new Bladestorm Relic is a must. It causes Explosive Traps to automatically activate when enemies are within range of your Bladestorm. This is crucial for automation and maintaining serious damage output.

Body Armor: Astral Blood is the go-to chest for cheap Last Epoch gold survivability. It turns the build into a low-life setup and provides crucial Critical Strike Multiplier and Damage Reduction when at low life.
