Shadowmaster or Shadow warrior for trapsin?

Which are their advantages/disadvantages?
Which is the best to use on a trap-assa?

I prefer Shadow Master because she will choose her own spells while the Shadow Warrior will only use what you have set as attacks on left/right mouse buttons.

However, I know others who prefer SW for *exactly* the same reason!

I think there maybe a case for recasting occasionally to get around the 'do your own thing' that SW does. But I will stick to SW for now!

Does the Shadow's traps count towards your own trap count btw?

Yes, I believe so. But the shadow's traps can also be at a much much higher level then yours, making them killer if you max them out. [Damage equivilant of level 60-ish with synergies, I believe I heard]

I was using Shadow Warrior until recently when I dropped a point into SM on my trapper. Now Im always using SM instead, he usually spams mindblast each time we tele and gives a bit of crowd control at nyhlatak while I lay Death sentries all over :grin: I'm going with SW when I want less mindblast spamming

shadow master is a very fun shadow to have but she tends to disappear on you which is a pain.

i use a shadow warrior for my trapsin and like her a lot and this is why. when i start her i use the lowest level skill (shock web) once she uses the skill then i switch too the next level (charged bolt sentry) once she uses that skill then i switch to (lightning sentry) when she uses it it synergizes with the other skills making her very deadly. more so than the shadow master, and she doesnt disappear like the master does.
