it's still good even though it only has 1 pet ring because i also attack with onslaught and throwing knife.. +3 all skills but battle standard makes it +4.. 80% CDR.. i might've put a few points on int but if i did, it's not more than 5 stat points.. my bleed res was on secondary.. no poison damage, just physical and pierce.
but i like to play my thunderer more so i gave it my archmages clasp.. this is the current setup of this char:

maybe it's easier if i equipped a shield but I'm adamant that this be a dual wielder
If you want closer to pure trapmaster, it's easier if you go str+int+dex, then requirement reduction like Odysseus Armor or Thoth's Glory.. I've tried this before with Mbutis Advocate + Shield + 2 or 3 pet jewelries
and you're right in maxing ancestral warriors in your titancalc because at 80% CDR, cooldown becomes just 1 minute so you can use it even against heavy mobs and it will still be ready when you get to bosses.. very useful in late legendary
