Ability Breakdown & Details

Trapping is a special ability which allows you to debuff enemies. There are a number of different traps available and your chance to succeed with the trap varies with your ability. Traps cannot kill, they can only help reduce the capacity of the enemy to fight. They also only work on creatures, not human or alien types. Traps always hit the target however their effect may not apply to the target due to the cl of the target vs the players trapping skill level.

On Trapping Exp, There is about a 6 second timer for the status effects effects caused from each trap to wear off. So if you through a bone spur trap and it affects a creature, you can not get exp from another Bone Spur trap for approximately 6 secs. However, if you through another type of trap, say a Noise Maker, you can get exp immediately for this trap. Traps do not stack the same effect upon itself. Meaning,you cannot use one trap repeatedly to keep the same state applied to a mob. The effect must wear off first then the player can apply another trap to cause a status effect.
