Talk:Barbed Trap

Is this bugged? When I use it I have never seen any damage numbers come off it.. 03:17, 1 April 2006 (CST)


 * You bring up a good point. I walked into a minefield in Mineral Springs of spike traps where Pinesols were and I either I didn't take much initial damage or I took none at all. --Gares Redstorm 04:35, 1 April 2006 (CST)


 * Barbed Trap does deal damage. I tested a high-level Barbed Trap against a Hulking Stone Elemental in Old Ascalon.  They're immune to bleeding, so any damage they take must come from the trap itself.  Indeed, when the trap triggered, it took a huge chunk out of the life bar, even though there was no displayed damage number.  Spike Trap also dealt dealt damage and also displayed no number. --adeyke 08:59, 1 April 2006 (CST)

Does Barbed Trap cause Crippled condition for 3...21 seconds, same as bleeding? It seems kind of silly that Snare trap costs only 10 energy less and is pretty much made obsolete by this skill.
 * Yes, the Crippled condition is also for the duration (as anyone fighting melee against Pinsouls will find out). I agree, if you have to choose between Barbed and Snare, Barbed does a lot more. But one may include both traps if spamming Crippled is a high priortiy (such as in the urn-running stage of HA or to help against flag running in GvG). If the traps aren't on top of each other, the runner will likely use any condition-heal against the first cripple then soon after hit the second trap and be crippled again. --Thervold 10:43, 27 June 2006 (CDT)
