Is trap beast good for a magblade?

Thinking of using it plus does the minor force mean that everyone else attacking that person have their critical damage increased or is it just for me?

Leon119✭✭✭✭if u are using it on a dedicated single target setup for bosses that remain stationary not only is it good its required as you dont really have anything else to slot
an example setup :
impale, wall of elements, funnel, inner light, merciless ulti: soul harvest
twisting path, crippling grasp, rearming trap, inner, siphoning ulti : shooting star dragon :P2 -

It works on all bosses rightI? mean it is a small trap
Does it also boost critical damage for group members?
And finally what should I morph it too when i can0 -
attackjet✭✭✭✭Its good for Stam. I just started using and its really good! You can fear right after it too! And then just do it again! Plus the poison! And really good for sewer dwelling0 -

✭✭I found re-arming to be good cause hey 2 CCs but lightweight does allow to be used at range but I think 2 CC is better than 1. Now if lightwieght had some other things going for it then maybe it be better.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭For single-target group-PvE DPS, trap beast is good for any DPS build--any class, magicka or stamina. It's better on stamina, obviously, but worth it even if you're magicka. Use your judgment, though, whether it makes sense for your particular situation, as oftentimes it's not worth the bar space, and sometimes it is.Nightfighters ― PC/NA and PC/EU

Trap beast is very common on melee-range Mag DPS. It’s been part of the mainstay kit for MagDK’s for years.
Also what nerf to hemorrhage ? Seems to be working as it always has, just increases critical damage. Just tested with no Assasination ability’s on front bar wearing Mechanical Acuity. Then tested with the skills there. Damage was increased just as it always has been. Trap Beat is additive to that bonus.Edited by SmellyUnlimited on March 19, 2018 11:56PMDO. NOT. WIPE. (in game OR out!)0 -

What a narrow view. Hemorrhage has applied to heals for the games entire lifespan up to this point. They took away the 10% CHD from heals. This was with dragonbones dlc. So it has been nerfed for a while. See here- https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/4865350/#Comment_4865350
Also per that thread they are taking away CHD from working on heals, including major and minor force.
Also also, this thread is from 2016. No idea why @QuebraRegra dragged it up.Edited by Lightspeedflashb14_ESO on March 20, 2018 2:43AM0
