I've been trying to do Necropolis, and I can handle everything in there except the traps. Every run I've tried, no matter how far I make it, one of those traps eventually kills me instantly.

I wear HCP full leathers with a VHCP greathelm - those don't help.
I have 95% nature resist and max crush resistance (warrior) on my armor - no help there either.

Not in Voln. 1x in Perception. I use 402 and 404 before going through the trapped areas.

It really sucks to spend all the keys to try to get through Necropolis, only to die on the last trap in the area...

Last year I was able to do this with the same character no problem, and practically farmed necropolis. I was at the top of my level bracket (low 70s). Now I'm 86 and stuck in the capped Necro, so I really can't solo the place because of the traps (seems like they're WAAAAY harder than last year). I was fortunate enough to get into one capped group to get my 1st heart completed, but seems like I can't find another group to go with, so I've been trying to solo for a few days...

Any tips on getting through traps without dramatically changing my character over the weekend would be appreciated!

I've died myself multiple times from them. I've only found Transcendence to help. Even that's a pain to have to wait for the cooldown. Good luck, and I hope someone else has more tips.

I'm just curious if stance def or off is better to walk through them

Don't think so dmac. Also. Had my warrior died from one of the traps. Instant death from head/eye crits with MCP plate and sigil of major protection on too.
