Bear Trap
|
The character sheet shows the same stat set for all skills, as such it can't handle skills that are technically spells (due to not being attacks) but deal non-spell damage.
The actual skill popup will show the correct damage, because that's different and customised to each skill, so knows which stats to look at. | |
|
To clarify, Bear trap can crit, it is physical, and it is neither an attack nor a spell?
So I can't block it, I can't spell block it, its damage cuts through armor, where does the counterplay come into effect in PvP? Hope they don't throw it under your feet? |

its physical, so armor defends against it.

" A high level bear trap (1k-1.5k ish damage) after a crit of 400% (some builds hit upwards of 700% Crit modifiers) hits hard enough to ignore even granite flasks. Last edited by DiscOH#6496 on Jan 27, 2013, 1:31:30 AM

To add to the confusion, the dmg value on the gem is at 100%, but since the trap has 150% dmgeffectivness the real value (mouseover on the skillbar) is 150% of that. So you basically have 3 possible dmgvalues, with one fake, one actual and one base.

" this is way too confusing. When I put on spell damage wands modifiers it clearly affected bear trap skill popup. same as spell crit chance/spell dmg multiplier on the character sheet. IGN: hyperculler (torment)

yep just tested it. the tool tip lies. does not scale with spell dmg.

So what is the best way to increase its damage? Besides the trap passives..
| |
|
uniques with "increased physical damage" that isn't on weapons or say weapons and thus are global/general.

" Ah I see now, like Haste aura. So pretty much just item mods with "increased physical damage" and Haste will boost Bear Trap. Thanks! |
