Traps
Sensing and Disarming Traps
Using the Sense Traps and Set/Disarm Traps skills, Rogues and (to a limited extent) Bards are able to ferret out and temporarily disable hostile traps found throughout Dalaya. While it is possible to handle most traps by triggering them, the respawn time on triggered traps is significantly faster than the respawn time on disarmed traps.
- Trivial range for sensing a trap is skill-level +10, from skill 0 to 200, at 200 trivial range is at least +30. Disarm has a different range, and even once a trap is trivial, one can still fail to disarm it.
- Sense Traps will skill-up upon a successful sense of any non-trivial trap, for Rogues this includes traps they have set, but only if their skill level in Set/Disarm Traps is higher.
- Items which modify either skill affect difficulty/success rate but do not prevent skill-ups to trivial.
- Disarming a non-trivial trap (other than one set by a Rogue) provides 75 experience times trivial (e.g., a 100 trivial trap gives 7,500 experience).
- The respawn rate on most triggered traps is 20 minutes (this means if one wants to quickly raise only sense traps, after detecting a trap it should be triggered instead of disarmed).
- The respawn rate for most disarmed traps is at least 60 minutes - respawn depends on trap trivial and skill level of disarming toon.
- It is possible to fail to disarm trivial traps.
- Critical failures trigger the trap.
- Differences in Z-axis can make detecting traps on stairs nearly impossible.
For items which modify these skills (it is possible to achieve +25 with each) see the Sense Traps and Set/Disarm Traps skills pages.
Hostile Trap Effects
Hostile trap effects come in a variety of flavors and may apply multiple effects from the following categories:
- Contagious diseases (usually permanent and soulbound)
- Direct damage
- Damage over time
- Mesmerize
- Monster summoning (usually will spawn with aggro towards whomever triggered trap, except for Emberflow-type traps)
- Root
- Slow
- Silence
- Snare
- Summoning

Setting Traps
Starting at level 15 Rogues have the ability to set traps. The power of these traps is determined by the rank of the trap discipline, Rogue's Damage Increment and CoP bonus. The Ambuscade Expertise line of AAs improves the crit chance of these traps. Traps are simply set by pressing the appropriate Discipline button. Warning: friendly NPCs can trigger these traps as currently implemented which could lead to some npcs wanting to kill you and if you kill them may cause harm to unrecoverable factions.
Trap Types
The first ranks of each kind of trap can be learned from Trap Masters found in any Rogue guild. As for the last rank of each trap (excluding Stasis Trap), they can be purchased from Archivist Xanyr or Logistician Zi'zi for Yclistinite Bits or Rebel Acquisition Tokens respectively.
Trap Name | Trap Type | Effect |
---|---|---|
Blast Trap | Fire AoE Trap | Ranks: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 |
Steel Trap | Unresistable Single Trap | Ranks: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 |
Poison Trap | DoT Trap | Ranks: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 |
Stasis Trap | Snare Trap | Ranks: 1, 2, 3 |
