decimation trap - Phoenix Freeshard

Does it even work? I have tried testing it in pve train a mob over it and cannot see an effect or damage.

Thanks

Not sure about PVE but it certainly works in RvR..

I'm not sure what use a 15 min timer ability is in PvE though...

it's re-usable every 5 mins, i toyed with it on my RM, putting it at doors at such but all i ever hit was pets and gaurds.

I do wonder if you can have 2 traps going at once as they last 10mins or does the 2nd one over right the the first?

I've been hit by two at once before, so they were stackable at one time if they're not now.

Thats why I tested it, I was not noticing it working in pvp, I would set it up at a door to a keep, but notice nothing when people storm threw. So I gave it a test, and nothing happens in pve

there was a smallman of albs (a few months ago? iirr) trapping the gates to EV and camping nearbythat would instantkill one or two of our smallman with a stack of these traps, so they are definitely stackable.
Unsure though if it were also multiple traps per enemy wizard

The traps have quite a delay though....the first time we ran into it unsuspectingly and the stickleader was not hit at all, he had already passed the dmg area before the traps exploded.

So single speed classes will potentially just run oiver, trigger them, and they will damage nothing

After some more testing, I was able to get DT to go off in pve I dragged the mob over my GT then stunned it, after about 8 seconds it went off. Two other times defending a keep, placed in front the door. I got it to go off when they set up the rams, and hit several targets, there was some delay, the second time was it got triggered off a thurg earth pet attacking the door. There is quite a long timer, on this, if this is the way it should be than it is a fairly useless RA. People running over it will not get effected.
