Xol,

You do get Survival XP for crafting traps. It's minimal, but its there. I was getting 7 Survival XP on test center for crafting a wire mesh trap.

Double check and make sure you aren't getting any - if not, /bug it.

Xol,

No - it's working as intended. It's supposed to grant survival XP - this is what we wanted.

Hmm... I am new to scouting so I may be missing something... but why would you get survival xp for crafting traps? I can understand camps giving you survival xp for crafting them, but I just don't understand trapping. It seems to me that crafting traps would give trapping xp.

Also, why do you want it this way? Is there some advantage to getting survival xp for crafting traps?

Xol,

When you start grinding out the survival XP - you'll know.

Survival is the slowest, and most boring of the skills to gain XP in. Trapping is the easiest to get XP in. So anything that speeds up survival is right up our alley.

When we requested the change from general crafting to something else, survival was the most often cited XP.

So that's why it was done that way.
