...when you say "per trap", do you mean per creature you kill, or per trp that you throw?
sorry, i meant per creature.
I also did some experimenting with Dweezle last night and I was able to successfully trap up to level 58 when I was 4344. I think I culd even trap higher but I didn't see anything in the 60's. There's a few vendors with +21 dweezle out there. I was getting 1100 xp per creature last night.

Using P-dart/snareshot/P-dart to keep them slow and dumb, I'm getting a minimum of 1000 trap XP per animal. Minimum 9 animals per lair, averaging about 10k xp per mission AND getting paid for it...
also, only getting fails on maybe 1 in 5 traps, tho will get the odd stack that all bounce off. 'twas ever thus.
OK, I found a way to quickly finish off the trapping line of scout. (I was 4044 and had capped on scout xp) You can stand at one lair, and quickly toss traps onto all the creatures letting them incap you. I was getting about 7k per incap. Then you can switch types of traps and do it again on the same lair.
When I finally made master scout I was able to trap level 82 creatures and get about 1750 xp per trap per creature. So you could conceivably get 5-10k of trapping xp per animal (I think. I know I was getting over 3k for 2 traps).
Woo-hoo!!
I was on for about an hour and jumped from 26,000 trapping exp. to just over 60,000!! I was hunting 14-16 CL creatures and getting about 200 exp. per trap thrown!!! I think I was averaging about 1500 - 2k per creature.
I should be 4434 aftre my next hunting trip. ![]()
