Ranger Archive

Well i have just reached the title of Trap master, and i wondered ... what is the use of ranger traps ? they got a high resist rate and i dont see anything different with or without them ... a blinded creature stil find and bite me, dizzy and stun ? humm what use i cant KD

so if you use them, what interest do you find or what i have missed ? i'm a bit disapointed about that ...

"what is the use of ranger traps ?"

Well... The biggest difference is that the traps are Area Effect traps.

Namely, if you throw one into a crowd, all the creatures near the target will also be affected.

I have seen this work myself... But other Rangers have had so-so results with them.

humm well i knew of the aoe thing but my quest is more, when they work what is their use except the effect i dont see any differences (ie when a mob is dizzy stun blind, well for me, it look like it have none of thoses effects and keep running/bite the same as before)

Quality of trap ? a ranger i met told me he was always doing his trap with high quality hide/bone/metal and his traps were always working ... for me there is quality on trap who's right ?

Regardless of resource quality nearly all of my traps work. I usually bring down my target's ranged and meleee protection and throw sonic bombs additionally. Phecancine darts are very useful if I am soloing. I stopped using any other traps a long, long time ago in a galaxy...

Hey Guys and Gals,

Personally, I find no use for the traps. They may work, but the time taken to throw them makes them less valuable than shooting. And I agree, I may see them stun 3 creatures, but the creatures never seem to slow down..

i only use traps if the creature is agroing me and i have to run for my life. And the area affect i have a couple of times on non social creatures beeen agroed by all when theyve gone off.

I quit using traps and have noticed no real difference. I am wondering if, other than displaying state changes, if they are really working. I hunted Dant solo and without using them, did more havesting than when I used them.

Anyone else notice this?
