Never tried a Trapper Build Before

I tried planning my build as best as I could without really knowing how Trapper builds play.  I'm not 100% sure how to use crossbows, they seem really weak.

Not sure how else I should equip myself, I've never really used leather armor but I thought I might give it a shot.

What do you think?  Suggestions?  Improvements? Any idea what I should pick for Armor?

I think you may be trying to do to much with the talents. Skill points look good. However, I think both could be further optimized by picking either a throwing knife traps build or a crossbow and traps build. Right now you have two primary weapons and you are investing in a psi build with only one talent to support it. I would pick either crossbows and traps with Temporal manipulation to support or go with throwing knives with traps supported by temporal manipulation. Would allow you better point spread. If you go crossbows get to at least 16+ perception. if you go throwing knives go with 16+ dex.

Here is an example of a throwing build ://underrail.info/build/?HgMQCgMDBQYyAMKgACgAGm5mKCM3ZHhGRnMAAABuAABNOSYrPxZRw5NcXljCh8KINyovwrN2EuKougHiqLsD4qq8Ct-8
