Hi SylentWren
Yes, it's great how WoF makes those pretty overlapping flashing chevron patterns (I mean, who can say no to an overlapping flashing chevron?). And it raps out the damage, unlike WoI, LS and DS, which wheeze and puff their way to shooting out one attack per second.
I don't know if you're seriously enquiring about it's late-game viability, but I found that it was OK in low-player-count Hell games. Although the damage per hit is low, and you only get five attacks per trap, the speed at which it delivers the attacks can make it work, provided you drop the traps so as to concentrate the damage on a single group of targets, and have the mana to keep dropping the things (it's not mana-efficient).
I used it with LS and DS in a pure trapper build. I'd intended to go for WoI but like you I got addicted to WoF between levels 12 and 24. I think WoI is more effective but WoF is more fun.
