Talk:Acid Trap

Still to test

 * Does Winter and/or Greater Conflagration change the damage?
 * Can the damage be resisted with Mantras?

Winter + Frostbound Armor by themselves don't reduce the damage, but Winter when combined with a Mantra might work. If I can persuade another guildie to help me test, I'll take a look at it tonight. LordKestrel 17:42, 18 May 2006 (CDT)


 * Updates: When Storm Chaser is active, energy is gained. No combination of Winter, Greater Conflagration and any of the Mantras or Physical/Elemental Resistance changed the amount of damage taken. +defense weapon mods and +elemental/physical weapon mods didn't change the damage taken.

 * Mantra of Earth activates on it. So it's earth damage, in a way? 80.202.245.236 10:21, 20 October 2006 (CDT)

-Damage Changes
I don't have easy access to this hall anymore, can someone check to see if the -damage mods still reduce the damage taken from the Acid Traps? LordKestrel 14:18, 14 July 2006 (CDT)


 * No, -damage mods from shields doesn't work on it. 80.202.245.236 10:21, 20 October 2006 (CDT)

"Armor ignoring... Earth damage"
Wtf. Thats a misleading oxymoron. But sadly i don't know what to write thats better. Someone help it!Dark0805 17:01, 15 March 2007 (CDT)
 * It's not. Dust trap also deals armor ignoring earth damage.  --Fyren 17:33, 15 March 2007 (CDT)

dark escape
you still take 20 damage even with dark escape btw. not sure what that means. &mdash;♥ Jedi ♥ Rogue ♥ 07:36, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Prehaps it doesn't stop armor ignoring damage? I'll find time to test it out with stuff like vamp touch, obsidian flame, dark pact ect. Flechette 10:36, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Dark Escape cuts all damage in half. Even armor-ignoring. However, it won't reduce the loss from Vamp Touch because that's lifesteal, not damage. However, seeing how this damage is elemental (since it gives energy from Storm Chaser and is reduced by Mantra of Earth) I don't see why Dark Escape wouldn't reduce it --Gimmethegepgun 18:52, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Hence why I thought it was worthy of mentioning. I should add, though, that I only noticed this in observer mode. The other team's runner was taking 20 damage right after he used dark escape. &mdash;♥ Jedi ♥ Rogue ♥ 21:18, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Health loss instead of damage, and a-net can't describe environmental effects properly? Lord of all tyria 21:19, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I was thinking health loss, but it's stated in the article that the damage is reduced by Mantra of Earth and gives energy from Storm Chaser, which are elemental damage, and damage != health loss --Gimmethegepgun 18:59, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
