Ressurecting 2 builds next season

I would like to request 2 changes to some oldies - well one was recently executed - explosive trap via the node “Instrument of the alchemist” - could you please change it back to 100%? It was not an over powered build. It was uber capable but needed a lot of skill or a lot of gear. It’s nothing like the current builds or even close to last seasons falcon/umbral.

Second build melee detonating arrow - this took a hit ages ago when you capped the node “Arrow traps” looking back on old builds this was especially strong with an uncapped “Eye of Reen” sword which in conjunction was crazy good. You’ve capped the sword and the node and the build now (even with insane gear and 2 daggers) is very mid and not fun. I was hoping you could increase the cap on the limit of 10 and maybe have it around 125-150. This will make the build stronger but still nothing like the old days - I’d like to request higher but for some reason someone in that design team seems to hate exploding trap and acid flask - no idea why!

Please consider this - it’ll add 2 more builds for people to play and enjoy next season and the more builds the more fun and the more people who will play and stay!

PS I have tested this build in 1.3 using insanely good gear with 777 and 77 slams on every item and top idols and currently in 1.4 with good slams, crazy maxed idols. Dummys and 100c is nuts. I went to 100c at 35 using shurikens around me + blade storm, 35… and now swapping at 70ish I struggle to map and can only just kill the same boss i did EASILY at 35 using the other combo. The explosion nerf is WILD you pop all your traps and the first set do damage while every other trap literally does nothing due to the cap. This 1 throw every 2-3 seconds is not viable, you destroyed it completely and it needs fixing. The build in the old seasons using eye of reen stacking 200+ stacks for 1000 crit multi and 2000 fire dmg were the main issue with the build. Sheesh!

Thank you
