The Wolf Trap is a deployable skill which deploys two pairs of metal jaws to root enemies passing over them.

Details[]

  • Special Effects:
    • Throws two arcing projectiles which explode on contact with an enemy or a horizontal surface.
      • The projectile bounces off of a Shieldbearer's shield without detonating.
    • Upon explosion, each deploys an indestructible wolf trap.
      • Traps grab the first enemies to pass over them, inflicting a rooting and unique vulnerability-inducing effect for 6.5 seconds.
        • Effect adds 34 base DPS to the total damage taken by the affected enemy for the duration.
        • 1/3 of this DPS can be dealt every 1/3 of a second, upon taking damage from another source.
        • Trap is destroyed once the effect ends.
        • This effect is weaker on all bosses.
      • Only one set of two traps per Wolf Trap skill can be active at a time; attempting to deploy a second set will destroy active copies of the first set.
