Doh i hit enter lol . Just wondering does everyone have the same problem with such high level mobs. We are suppose to be the best at this level. Just bothers me that not one trap landed on target so only thing i can do is shoot and send in the pets...just seems unbalanced to me.

Krayt dragons are around cl275 to cl300.I expect traps to fail, but my low level aka scout traps should not fail as often, to a point, where traps are not used anymore, they just cost resource, especially cargo space

All traps fail on a Peko peko albatross, which is level 125. So maybe after 100 traps don't work, if so, they really need to tweak the trap resist rates then.

Yeah I'm a Master Ranger and I have stopped using traps.

The mobs I hunt solo can be taken down with my pistol and pet and the larger level mobs (Krayts/Kimos)are not affected by the trapsI make so I don't use them.

It's a shame that I am a Trap Master and I get better productivity from my pistol and pet, because throwing a trap cost action points and those are better spent with bodyshot2 and healthshot with my FWG5 max dmg 307 pistol(even more if I add an enhancment). I amonly 0/4/0/0 in Pistoleer anyway.

i am a master ranger but when i had traps 2 i was able to trap kimos ( not at 100% accuracy more like 10% ) now i almost hit kimos at around 90% ( giant kimos too ) and can get a 1/15 on krayts

The problem is that even if krayts are 275+, I have more chances of status-affecting them with a novice on an adv profession than with traps at trap master status.

The only krayts I can trap at Master Ranger are Juvenile Canyon Krayts (CL120)

Anything bigger and the traps fail 100% of the time.

I do not think it is a 0% chance to effect them, just very very low. I have landed a trap on a kimo, and never tried on a krayt. Its really not worth the effort though. Save the action, you may need it

No, I'd say that I have wasted well over 100 traps attempting to land one on Canyon Krayts (CL 275)... Not a single one has successfully landed.

My success rate against Juvenile Canyons (Cl 120) is about the same as it is against banthas (CL 14), somewhere between 85% and 90%.

Shouldnt it work out to about 10 levels per 10 points of trapping skill? So if you have a trapping skill of 90 you should be able to snare a Kimo, right (lvl 90)? I dont think snarring a Krayt should EVER be reliable. Its a frigin Krayt. THE critter.

Forget about snaring a krayt, what about our other traps?

Krayts cannot be blinded with Flash Bombs?

Sonic Traps don't effect them?

It's not just PhecnacineDarts and Adhesive Mesh that don't work. None of them work.

I hit a giant Kimogila with a trap once, just once.
