Crafting a Shield for Explosive Trap Saboteur

2

Use Deafening Essences of Greed or Shrieking Essences of Greed for budget until you see (70-109)% increased Fire Damage or (70-109)% increased Spell Damage (Tier 3+). This is a 1/190 chance with a Fractured Suffix.

Farric Lynx Alpha Example

2 Open Suffixes

Protecting Spell Damage

You will need an open Prefix and at least 1 open Suffix:

• If you have an extra Prefix and 2 open Suffixes use a Farric Lynx Alpha Beast to add a Suffix and potentially remove the extra Prefix.
• If you have an increased Spell Damage Prefix you can craft Cannot Roll Caster Mods to protect it before using an Orb of Annulment to remove extra Modifiers.

If you remove the maximum Life or increased Fire/Spell Damage Prefix go back to Step 2. Once you Shield looks like the one here move to the next Step.

Before

4.1

After

If you still have 2 open Suffixes, Benchcraft a Prefix then use an Exalted Orb to add a second Suffix.

With only 1 open Prefix and 1 open Suffix, Benchcraft Prefixes Cannot be Changed then use a Harvest Add Fire for 15000 Wild Crystallised Lifeforce Lifeforce and 1 Sacred Crystallised Lifeforce. This will guarantee +1 to Level of all Fire Spell Skill Gems then remove either the Metamod or the extra Suffix.

Before

5.1

After

5.2

Benchcraft Prefixes Cannot be Changed again then use a Veiled Orb or buy a Veiled Orb. Since there is a very high chance of Unveiling a useful modifier, you will most likely only need to do this once.

Before

6.1

After

6.2

Benchcraft +(10-15) to Strength and Dexterity then Unveil one of these modifiers:

• (6-7)% chance to deal Double Damage
• (18-20)% chance to deal Double Damage while Focused
• (8-10)% increased Effect of your Curses

Explosive Trap

Finish with a Benchcraft of your choice. Your Shield is now complete!
