Falconer build without ballista?

About to roll my second class, falconer. I see nearly all builds require ballista. Is there a build idea for falconer that relies more on the falcon and not on ballista?

I haven’t seen a build with Balista.

I am following this one (gear isn’t mine):

So far quite fun, and feels very very strong (I am level 45 with it)

Gotcha, thanks. I usually dont follow builds, but just like to have ideas what skills work together and what direction to go in stat wise etc.

This looks similar to what I was thinking but instead of explosive trap using umbral blades. Ill check both out in game.

I’m doing a Pure Falconer build with Gambler’s Fallacy. It has 100% crit chance uptime and uses Merophage as a stat stick with a ton of increased damage/melee increased damage. Crits for 1 million+ on dive bomb, and I have around 120 - 150 movement speed, breezes through content. Super fun. Not the best for the highest corruption levels though.
