Overview
Place a trap that will release several venomous snakes to attack the first enemy to approach. The snakes will die after 15 sec. Trap will exist for 1 min. Only one trap can be active at a time.
Snakes have their own aggro, therefore this trap has no effect of hunter's aggro rating.
The snakes have 3 rogue-style poisons:
- [Crippling Poison]: Enemy movement speed is reduced by 50%.
- [Mind-Numbing Poison]: Enemy spell-casting speed is reduced by 50%.
- [Deadly Poison]: Enemy gets 15 nature damage over 12 seconds. Stacks up 5 times.
Snakes applies poisons with spit, not a melee attack (about 8 feet range). Also, if there are unpoisoned targets nearby, snakes will not melee, but will instead spit more poisons on that target, making snakes an excellent AoE boost. For example, if the hunter knows where a mage's AoE will be, they can place a snake trap there and most mobs at this location will get poisoned.
When the trap is activated, snakes start to attack the nearest targets. It is possible that some snakes will attack one target and some will attack other. After target is dead, snakes attacks next target (in close range).
