I just got Master Trapping in Ranger today, and still the flash-bomb, and Sonic whatever do not work. They do not hit, they do not miss, you just throwem and nothing happens. What's up with that?

Doh! That's unfortunate. I really enjoyed the trapping skills while mastering Scout so I was looking forward to the more advanced traps of the Ranger profession. I hope that this is just an isolated incident and not another bug.

No kidding. I love trapping. Making them, using them... Trapping is a riot, and I can't wait to get new ones. I really hope that it is an isolated incident.

This is not an isolated incident.

I just use my first ranger trap today and it did nothing.

No message that it failed, no message that it worked.

The particle effects visual was their, but that was it, totally broken.

What a shame, I too was looking forward to using ranger traps as well and sense their are only a few of us that can use ranger traps to be able to speak up for a fix I fear I will be a long time before the devs get to it.

Think Ill make a new post every day to increase the possibility of a Dev taking notice.

I wouldnt doubt if ranger get a full trap workup like scout did at end of beta. I just wish you could experiment on them and make the stack sizes larger :/

Have you /bugged it?

The flash bomb works for me. It goes off, I get get xp, the blind icon appears on the mobs status window. That being said, I've never seen a mob act any different blinded or not.

However, I think there are problems with the notification system in general. Especially in a group setting. Particularly with harvesting skins/bones. I've harvested hides/bones and have not gotten any message (or xp).

Holy cow, I have 3 sets of Scout traps left and have not tried the ranger ones yet... I'll have to check this out...

Flash bomb works for me sometimes and sometimes nothing happens at all, the sonic boom one or whatever has never worked. No message no nothing, just the visual.

I have Level IV Trapping.

I think the traps do work, I've seen them give a notification that they worked and how much xp I got for throwing them, however since they are AOE traps, I believe you actually have to be within the AOE radius for it to notify you of this info.... test it out and see... get up close and personal and then throw a ranger trap and it should give you the normal trap notices... (even without the notice I do think it was still giving xp)

However.. I agree.. for the "uber" traps... they seem much weaker than the Scout traps...
