5% fire, cold, and lightning absorb.

Asked in disc but I'm still a little unclear, how was this craft created? Was it down leveled and then shrine crafted? Or was the base found in a low area? Seems like the base req level was 30 before the effigy spam, but it also has +2 all skills which I don't think can spawn in that low req item. Sockets are PGems for resistances, and obv blessed with creepy.

NotArmory doesn't know how to calculate the required level of rares or crafts, it's just assuming 30 because it's a sacred base.

A downleveled body armor can roll +2 skills (item lvl 1 sacreds are affix level 81) and have a required level of 45 (32 for the affix + 10 for craft + 3 for one affix).

i'm looking for information on trap damage and how it scales or how to scale it. does spell focus or energy matter, pierce on items, etc.

anyone have a source for this? thanks!

Traps are pretty straight forward - they scale off cold/fire/lightning spell damage and + all skills. Pierce from gear doesn't affect their damage, only the pierce from the ability itself in the tree. Spell focus/energy doesn't affect damage either. Because of this, you can focus on gear with defensive stats since you don't need to gear for pierce etc. Just be weary that because the build can get so tanky, the damage is definitely lacking.

they scale off cold/fire/lightning spell damage

Physical/magic as well, which means 30% generic spell damage gives them 40% more damage - 10 for each of cold, fire, lightning, and physical/magic.

They also scale with

Is Tinker's Gambit multiplicative with all those other scaling?

thanks for the reply on the trap questions.

i have another one, does the buff or stats from artifice mastery (wielding two claws) show up on the stat sheet? when i equip 2 claws it shows my block chance as 0% and the base at level 1 should be 9% (at my lvl111).

thanks!
