Ability Breakdown & Details
Trapping is a special ability which allows you to debuff enemies and in some cases, also cause damage. Traps have a throwing range of up to 50 meters at a rate of 5 seconds between throws, and there are a number of different traps available. Chance to succeed with the trap varies with your trapping modifier. 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. A higher CL mob will be resistant to most low trap level attacks. Using traps costs action pool points. Each trap can be used at one level lower than the skill level its schematic is available, meaning like camping, a scout/ranger may use a trap without actually being able to make the item so long as it is one trapping level lower than the schematic. Note: Perhaps its a range set for each profession as whether or not the player may qualify to use the item. Example: for scouts it may be so long as the player is within +5 of the next trap schematic, for ranger it may be the player has to be within +10.
On Trapping Exp, There is a duration timer for the status effects caused from each trap before it wears 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. Trapping experience gained is a fixed amount depending on the CL of the target if a trap is successfully applied, meaning every mob of a certain CL will give the same amount of experience when hit by a trap.
WORKINGS OF INDIVIDUAL TRAPS
