Video by Dumbo: How to craft a GG 6, 7, and 8-link Explosive Trap helmet

We don’t need it for explosive traps either, we need to get just horrored 7-links.

1. Get the Base: Blizzard Crown ilvl 82 (no less).

Ilvl 82 is slightly better than ilvl 83 because the latter has 1 more crit modifier we don’t need, and it lowers the chances to get what we need.

The Blizzard Crown is absolutely a must-have base. It adds cold damage enough to apply chill to enemies, so Hypothermia support would work.

2. Alch if it has a normal rarity. We need 1 empty mod, either prefix or suffix. Throw a couple of chaos if your alchemy orb made 6 mods.

3. Slam the cheapest conqueror exalted orb. Probably Warlord.

4. Harvest Randomise the Influence (1k blue lifeforce) until you get either elder or shaper influence.

5. Use Awakener’s Orb to add an opposite influence to your base. (ex: If you hit elder, add shaper). Check Dumbos video above on how to use it (6:20)

6. Spam Essence of Horror until you get any tier of Hypothermia. You need 1 open suffix and 1 open prefix here. If you fill all suffixes, try to annul the suffix you don’t need before rolling essences again.

You need to annul any useless 3rd suffix unless it’s <Socketed spells have +2% to Critical Strike Chance>

7. Craft Suffixes Cannot Be Changed.

8. Harvest Reforge crit (150 blue lifeforce) to hit <Socketed Spells have +2% to Critical Strike Chance>. You must hit the open prefix here too.

This part is very cancerous and hitting +1% feels bad. But the next part would be way more cancerous, but safe. That is why I recommend doing steps 6-8 until hitting +2%.

9. Craft Suffixes Cannot Be Changed.

There is a way to reduce the cost of this step.
At this point, your helmet should have filled suffixes, so you actually can use Wild Bristle Matron (Add a crafted Meta-modifier to a non-Unique item).
You will always hit “Suffixes Cannot Be Changed” that way, but the cost of the beast is usually lower than 2 divines for bench craft.

10. Orb of Scouring. You will get the item with 0 prefixes and 3 suffixes.

11. Bench craft any tier of Mana to block some bad prefixes.

12. Slam exalts 2 times. Your goal here is to hit any tier of Concentrated effect.

Rinse and repeat steps 9-12 until you get it.

Finish the helmet by crafting <+1 level to Socketed AoE gems>

1. Alt spam +1 to all lightning.

2. Prefixes cannot be changed.

3. Reforge crit.

4. Repeat until t1 crit multi.

5. There it is, +2 and >80% multi with unstable catalysts.

Imagine hitting cast speed here xD
