It shouldn't be possible to set traps in the bodies of water. It seems quite bizarre to me to be walking around in say the Inner Sea and *fall* into a pit of snakes.

Also, should dart traps not show when a dart hits you? As of now, the only message is the poison.

Agreeing on both points.

Oi, traps are evil. tongue.gif
I fell into one of those five snake traps and Alger shieldstunned me evertime I could do anything...

Darts not showing a message is part of relic code. It was the same way in Achaea, and is an effect of conceal I believe.

It would be so cool to have different types of traps in each environment area, like in the forest snares that fling you into trees, and in the ocean have an anchor drag you underwater, in the desert some quicksand, and in the mountain have a landslide or an avalanche. Things like that instead of having generic traps that mirror the ones in Achaea (except for the pits.) Granted it would take forever, but even a superficial change in messages would be fun.

Yes, would be cool.

Yeah, conceal was fun when it worked.

Please change dart traps to show "You spring a trap!!" everytime you get hit by a venom?
Sylphas2005-09-05 00:46:09
So you want conceal removed? And that's not even the message that shows when you hit an unconcealed trap. It's like "a dart streaks out of nowhere to hit you" or something.
Thorgal2005-09-05 00:49:17
I don't care, I want to see a message everytime a venom dart hits me, any message works.

Yep, anything will do.
Sylphas2005-09-05 01:11:55
But the whole point of conceal is to remove the messages...

And even then, you DO get a message, unless it is charybdon.

It makes perfect sense, someone fires a dart into me from an unknown trap in the middle of the f-ing ocean and I don't notice the dart.
Sylphas2005-09-05 02:01:53
I get blasted by bolts of energy and shrug them off without a throught. Deal with it.

Question: How did the dart fly through the water to hit you and poison you? blink.gif
