I also use traps and have been a MR for along time now....Im telling you: MIND SHOT 3; ADHESIVE MESH; HEADSHOT 3 ; GLOW JUICE; FLURRY 1; PHERPICINE<sp>; HEADSHOT 3; repeat headshot 3 if needed! I dont know about you, but CONCEAL shot gets boring!! So, I have a whole list of MACROS I use for different ANIMALS.



On you TRAP idea. I like it, but how about more for a sampeling aspect. You can t harvest numerous k of something. But, you could get a sample. I mean they have resource droids. Same idea. But, we would have to empty our traps....maybe just a report saying our trap has been tripped!!

No harvestors. That does not take skill.



I have had a germ of an idea that I would probably have to say comes from the fur trade of the 1500-1700's. You build the trap. You leave it in a spot you know would have a type of critter you want. It leaves you a waypoint but no footprint (other folks can still build there, the trap is your secret ). You come back later and collect a few bodies of the critters that spawned near there.



  • Little server load.

  • You need to know the area to know what will spawn there.

  • Not too difficult to code.

  • You still have to harvest,but you can go hunt elsewere.

  • Not as high yield as hunting but lets you do mindless stuff like Durnis.

This is an idea I can live with. Big "critter" harvestors that let me sit on my &ss like a miner is not.
