Traps

I dont care about dying :mad:

Its the 250 x few hours that's bothering me.

Ok, so i went to several zones, got s few skillups, took me about 6 hours. Please shorten the respawn time on traps. The ones i disarmed in the morning (11am) are now still not up (9pm).
 
Please please, shorten the traps respawn time :(

I get about 2-3 skillups per day, which is terrible. Traps should respawn within an hour, not in 12 or a day. I have been working on these 2 skills for 2 weeks now, and im online a lot. Got about 20 to each skill. I go to paw, yaralith sewers, HK every day. Went to PoT and eldenals too, couldnt find any traps :(

This wont make it ridiculously easy to gain skillups, just make it possible to reach 250 in a realistic time.


Thanks for reading this

I know, but at skill sense traps ~100 im not high enough.

Unless something's changed (or it changes at higher levels of sense), you don't actually have to be around a trap to gain skill in sense traps. You can spam it all day long to get your skill up, then go to where the traps are to raise disarm trap.

Don't be a wuss.
Go to HHK and deal with the 10 billion traps there.
If you fail, you die. Go back.

Think of it this way, worst case scenario you fail every time you try and die 250 times on your way to max...

With the new trap changes, this is no longer an option. I thought it was a pain going around to each individual door to disarm the traps, but it is a once-per-character deal and I'm ok with spending about 24-36 hours raising my lockpick skill. The fact that we have to go back and devote 2-3x as much time (picked locks respawn after 5 mins, whereas traps can take up to 12 hours), is ludicrous, especially given the lack of low-level traps. If I could bind near Highkeep like pre-patch and run in and grab a few traps before getting ressed, I'd be fine with that, but as it is you literally have to move around as much as with the lockpicking raises... you just see much less return on your time.

My guild is expecting me to disarm traps in alot of the zones we're raiding in and I don't think they understand that it literally takes an entire day to gain 10 skill points.
 
If it helps, i fell through a hole in Newport Rogue guild,.. seems to be some traps in pit.. may be fairly low lvl ones though..

They raised my skill to a whopping 30 :(
 
Does anyone actually have 250 disarm traps? Ponden is at 200 and no HHK traps raise skill. I haven't tried other places because I don't care.
 
I do have max sense / disarm trap. But i raised my skill before the whole trap revamp (or during the revamp ?). I was able to gain a skill point on any given trap, and it took me a lot of time. It was incredibly HARD to skill up. Picklock skill was/is far easier.

That said, i guess now it's even more difficult. It's probably a nightmare to work on this skill. I'm glad I maxed mine already :psyduck:

Now if you work on your skill when you are low level regularly, maybe it's less of a pain.

The problem is that rogues usually start to work on this skill post lvl 60 which requires time spent in a lot of useless zones to them.

Enjoy the exploration, work hard, and you will proudly say : A trap ? lol ... k next one plz.
 
I also have 250 sense/disarm, and as Yona I finished before/during the trap revamp primarily using HHK.

No idea where to try if the HHK traps dont skill up past 200 now.
 
I got to ~115 in both skills, done it all past revamp. Its super hard skilling up, too hard. I'd rather go study, than do these 2 skills, that's how terribly hard they are.
 
I spent nearly 5 hours in yaralith sewers just now, i disarmed all the traps at ~12am cet and now it is 5pm and traps have not repopped yet. Im 100% sure noone else has been here meanwhile. :dance:
 
As long as it's so ridiculously hard, how about disarming a non-trivial trap, or unlocking a non-trivial gives a rogue exp? Having a 60 rogue myself, training skills that are RARELY used was more painful than soloing...okay not really...but close...
 
Now each disarmed trap gives 10500 exp, but still they repop once a day or so. I disarm them in the morning and in the evening they're still not up. Im pretty sure noone else is disarming them.
 
I started this Disarm Trap thread in hopes that it will help all of us raise our skill faster. I'd appreciate it if everyone could contribute and start adding trap loc's, so get to it! I'll be adding everything I find as well.
 
Im positive trap respawn time, once disarmed is way WAY more than 2 hours. 20, maybe 24, more like it. Please shorted the respawn time, so i can practice and eventually disarm prison traps(motg clearing taking way too long now)
 
Thanks for making traps repop :)

Now im stuck again at skill of 150. I've been offering 1k to anyone who knows where i could skillup from here on to no success. Have tried HK, FG, RSM, Lasanth, EC, sorcerers lab, sirens grotto, dragon necropolis,... Please, if anyone has any suggestions, let me know.
