untrap xp
Posted: 04 Dec 2005 01:50 PM
If anyone comes across a trap that gives xp when you disarm it, can you bug report it for me and tell me where you found it?

They should all do that, but most (all?) don't.

If there is a working one IG, it will speed up the process of figuring out what is wrong.

Thanks.

I got xp for that massive thing down in the PR sewers, the name of the area escapes me, but its at the end of a sort of pier thing, with nothing of interest beyond it, if that helps at all.

Would be the one most likely in what used to be the spider area Paul? If I'm correct in taking Vulpina's directions. Sewer Sludge Lake methinks?

i've gotten xp for various traps which i've unlocked multiple times...and just suddenly got xp for it. next time i disable that same trap, i get no xp for it (after reset and all).

doc's safe once (a long time ago).

recently, the old training halls in lynaeum with the undead soldiers...that door gave me some xp for the trap. not literally the door...but...well...

Dito... I have disarmed or recovered traps in various places, and only occasionaly got XP for them. It seems completely random when and where it happens.

Most of the time disarming a trap, you get nothing, and then one day... poof, you get XP... and then the next and however many times after that.. nothing again.

will send them to you via PM

Will experience be awarded for retrieving traps, as well? I retrieved most of the traps in Lynaeum's Minotaur section and didn't get jack.

Yes, for the traps that I have gotten XP for (when it happens) I have seen it give XP for both disarming AND recovering.
