Ah yes, fair question.


Dizzy traps:broken. Dizzy does nothing to creatures. You can land the state... but to no realbenefit.


If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.

Creatures do fall down-- when I was a TKM, I used my KD attack a lot. The increased damage during the short period of time that they were down was crucial.

You're right, though. Dizzy traps are worthless as long as they only work on creatures. They either need to be replaced or we need to be able to use them on npc's and/or players.

Yes, another reason why ranger's traps need a revamp.
I think as rangers we are a patient breed =) if other professions had complete tree that was next to useless we would have heard about it long ago. And maybe fixed.

Wait a sec! That's JB! What the...




Hmmm, I think I got one starred for this because someone thought I was being sarcastic (and I suppose I can see why you might take it that way). I wasn't being sarcastic by the way... my point really was that JB is now a corr and I'm happy for him.

Well thank you for the answers. I thought that "they are broken" would be the answer. Well, I do use P-darts, glowwire, and all the flash bombs and sonic things. Thanks for informing me of the situation. I hope we get this resolved.
