Demon Hunter Spike Traps Build With Natalya

Using the trapper-specific powers of the Natalya's Vengeance set, this Demon Hunter build elevates the potential of Spike Traps through a deadly Caltrops combo. The base build presented on this page is the Greater Rift Solo Pushing Variation, but this build also has a Nephalem Rift Farming Variation; follow the link above to the respective alteration.

The former Season 28 theme, the Altar of Rites, has been revised and re-added to Diablo 3 as a permanent character progression mechanic. — For virtually all builds and players of all skill levels — from casual to advanced — we recommend progressing through the Altar tree using the path outlined below. The suggested path is geared towards maximum quality of life first, then amplifying damage, and then mopping up the tree with defensive and edge case utility nodes.

Note that while they require reaching them with a Seal, Legendary Potion Powers are not part of the Seal cost system; Potions unlock with a separate resource called Primordial Ashes, obtained from salvaging Legendary or Set items of Primal (red bordered) quality. Upgrade them as soon as possible, and in the order shown below (courtesy of Caleko's Altar of Rites planner).

You can read more on the Altar of Rites, Seals and Legendary Potion Powers in our dedicated Altar of Rites Mechanics guide.

• Legendary Gem 1: Bane of the Trapped
• Legendary Gem 2: Bane of the Stricken
• Legendary Gem 3: Zei's Stone of Vengeance

The seasonal theme for Season 31 will be completely flexible slots for Kanai's Cube, which means you can use any piece of gear in any slot of the Cube.

This is one of the builds where we don't recommend making any changes, since the options presented in the default build already make up the strongest Kanai's Cube composition possible for the setup.

• Weapon Slot: Chanon Bolter
• Armor Slot: Trag'Oul Coils
• Jewelry Slot: Ring of Royal Grandeur
