Defence mechanism of this build is completely based on "Just another Arc Trap Build" by Sequel. I also did my 1st ever kill of Uber on my very 1st attempt with that build, so try it out to see if you like it!
After getting my Uber Elder kill as an Arc trapper, I tend to quit but then find EH trap is interesting, but after browsing the forum and see some Elemental Hit Trap builds with very fancy damage numbers, but with 5k life and 700 mana for MoM. I thought "WTF with 700 mana for MoM?". Then come up with a Blood Magic variation. Fun thing is that even when not going the "wich route" as most EH trap builds, it still yield same or higher dps. So I stick to the PoB I theorycrafted and get the Uber Elder kill anyway.

Single target setup (in Frostferno unique helmet):
Elemental Hit - Trap Support - Cluster Trap support - Elemental Damage with Attacks support OR Trap and Mine Damage support

Pack clear setup (in Chin Sol unique bow):
Elemental Hit - Trap Support - Cluster Trap support - Elemental Damage with Attacks support OR Trap and Mine damage support - Greater Multiple Projectiles support

Bloodrage setup (important to place the gems in exact order as listed):
CWDT (level1) -> Bloodrage (level1) -> Immortal Call (level1) AND (blink arrow or flame dash or lightning warp, your choice, this gem can be put anywhere in the link)

Utility setup (can be anything, don't need to use what I use)
Phase Run - Bear Trap - Increased Duration - Faster Casting

When no mobs are around or in dangerous situations: use Phaserun or quicksilver flask for faster run speed
Pop a Quartz flask whenever you encounter packs for safety
Throw trap INTO the pack, then after 0.5s or so the pack will start to attack, move anywhere that is not in a straight line immediately, don't try to make a 2nd throw (because they will fire projectiles at where they 1st see you after a 0.5 or 1s delay). Watch them burn :)
For bosses, throw the trap among him or in the kiting path (watch my Phoenix video)
If can't, then don't throw trap, move away from danger is top priority. For safe play, 1 throw and move in boss fight is enough to slowly take him down (though I must admit it is not slow, dps is very good, it ends fast!)

- Why BloodMagic?
I was tired of pressing mana flask once in a while, so I go with BM. It also takes avanatage of the massive regen of Sab. To sum it up, I hate blue :)

- Why Explosives Expert instead of Chain Reaction?
Elemental Hit traps only target whatever triggers it, so those triggered by C.R will only fire at random directions, which is a waste of dps

- Why x2 of Hair Trigger jewels?
For more AoE trigger radius because we don't use C.R, try to pick ones with 55% more trigger radius or more

-Why use Fire roll of Elemental hit?
It has higher damage roll out of 3 elements. Enough said

-Do I need 6L Chin Sol? It's expensive
No, it's for pack clear. You are fine with only 1 skill in helm for pack clear

-So put another EH trap in glove trap for pack clear is okay?
I tried, but in my experience, it does not feel good (my gems were not at max level at Uber Elder kill, so I can't tell, try it yourself)

-The trap gloves are needed for Tier 16 maps and up?
No, look what I do in my Phoenix kill, I throw trap during his delay attacks, that much time is enough to throw 23 traps without a trap gloves. But it's good to have

-The unique helmet is mandatory?
No, but it's cheaper than the 6L bow, and has higher dps. FIY

-Why Phase Acrobatics?
Acrobatics + Phase Acrobatics are 2 strongest defense nodes in the game. With Blood Magic and a Kaom's Heart, it gives you even higher chance of handling nasty moment.

-Why Resolute Technique?
High and consistent dps for CHEAP (GL finding cheap rings/amulet with good Crit/CritMulti/EleDmg rolls)

-Why Avatar of Fire?
To convert everything to fire. Enough said.

Born in the Shadows - Pyromaniac - Perfect Crime - Explosives Expert

Arakaali (upgrade Arachnoxia, the last two are optional
and
Ryslatha (upgrade Gorulis)
-------------------------------------------------------
EXPLAINATION:
Arakaali with Arachnoxia upgrade will give you 50% increased to life recovery (with condition, keep reading). It will make your life recovery twice as fast, which is one of the key feature to survive in a dodge/evasion build. But in order to make it work. You will have to use this gem setup, in exact order:
CWDT(level 1) - Blood Rage (level 1) - Immortal Call (level1)
What it does is that it will cast Blood Rage FIRST to make you take physical damage over time, then it will cast Immortal Call to make you immune to damage over time for a short duration. And this mechanic will trigger the bonus from upgrading Arachnoxia
----------------------------------------------------
Ryslatha with Gorulis upgrade:
Make your flask life more useful when on low life. In other word, it helps in nastly situation :)
