0.12.910 - Rebalanced, cannot be rearmed.Metal traps are even stronger and don't take as much time to make, but are expensive in terms of resources.Īssuming Normal quality, for the effect of other qualities, see Quality. Stone traps are helpful if you're limited by space or type of resource available, and can be a good activity when one has the Work Frenzy Mental inspiration. But given the significantly increased crafting time of both the traps themselves and the stone blocks required to build them, it is often more efficient to simply make several wooden traps. Stone spike traps are cheap to make, and can kill a humanoid raider in one trap. Wood spike traps can be quickly created and placed in large quantities. If it doesn't seem obvious to you at first, one way to find out is by studying raids that do come. Common locations are in the corners of your base, where enemies will likely make turns, as well as narrow areas that receive frequent traffic. Unless they are sappers or breachers, raiders will try and break walls last. Raiders will take the shortest, unobstructed route to a target. Place traps where you expect raiders to go. But as raids get bigger, it starts to get impractical to replace the traps. Multiple traps can fall most creatures, short of thrumbos and heavy mechanoids. A single trap can be fatal to humans or large animals. A hallway of spike traps can virtually end any frontal raid, short of tough or nimble pawns, without your colonists ever seeing combat. Spike traps are invaluable in the earlygame, as one of the few defense strutures available.
#PITFALL TRAPS ARK HOW TO#
The damage listed is the average sum of the damage inflicted, the AP is incorrectly calculated as if this damage is all dealt at once.įor tips on how to use spike traps in general or in killboxes, see Defense structures#Spike traps and Defense structures#Entryways. Note that both the damage and AP of the attack in the info screen are misleading. AP is the armor penetration of each attack.The armor penetration of the attack is determined by the following equation: This random factor is rolled once only and then applied to all attacks, it is not rolled for each attack. rand(0.8,1.2) is a random factor between 0.8 and 1.2.Material Sharp Damage Multiplier is a material dependent factor.Trap Melee Damage is 100 for spike traps.A spike trap performs 5 of these attacks when triggered. Damage per Attack is the damage each attack does to the target.The amount of damage dealt by each attack is determined by the following equation:ĭamage Per Attack = Trap Melee Damage * Material Sharp Damage Multiplier * rand(0.8, 1.2)/5 This strikes mainly on the head and torso and usually causes bleeding. When triggered, the spike trap makes five attacks against the pawn that triggered it. The "auto rearm" option, enabled by default, produces a blueprint to replace the trap. Once a spike trap is triggered, it is destroyed. In all instances, the nimble trait multiplies the trigger chance for that pawn by 10%, that is, a 10% chance for enemies and 0.04% chance for friendly pawns. However, colonists and non-manhunting animals are aware of the location of traps, and will avoid pathing over them if reasonably possible. Friendly visitors will never trigger a trap.Colonists and tame animals have 0.4% (one in 250) to trigger the trap.Non-manhunting wild animals have a 25% chance to trigger the trap.Note that despite the name, animals currently hunting a human pawn for food are not "manhunters" and are not considered enemies. The base trigger chance is 100% for enemies, including animals affected by the manhunter mental state.Spike traps are single use traps that may be triggered when a pawn of any kind walks over it. Spike traps cannot be placed or constructed directly next to each other nor next to any other kind of trap. Spike traps require 45 Stuff ( Metallic/ Woody/ Stony), 3,200 ticks ( 53.33 secs) of work, and a Construction skill of 3.
