[BUG] Trap Beast multi-spam

Block Casting has been part of the game since launch and ZoS has stated that this isn't an exploit/bug... shield stacking is also not an exploit or bug, but a smart use of existing mechanics. All classes could shield stack, but sorcs made infamous. Most people frown on shield stacking because they either lack the burst or see it as an unfair advantage.
That's the joke there abuse mechanics that clearly need fixed or removed but ZOS won't do it because they want them in either though there clearly abused and broken. Kinda silly how a player can cast there powerful skills and spells while only taking half damage or what ever block actual blocks.Edited by Forestd16b14_ESO on 22 September 2015 00:510 -

Also, it has something to do with Camouflaged Hunter, you can see it do damage that shouldnt be possible after the PVP damage nurf.1 -

It's not broken inherently. Simply placing it does not trigger it's multi proc effect (I would know, I use it for the crit hit damage buff of Minor Force, and I have only had it proc once in SO on mantikora when I got sucked underground and my trap was upstairs under him), there's something that must be done preemptively for it to bug out. I've used it in PvP numerous times and have had it work completely fine, where it hits the target, then rearms and hits them again after the 6 second wait timer. This is an exploit players are actively using via some trigger, it requires some action or something to get it to trigger (I have no idea how it works).Old member of The Order of Mundus, Mostly Harmless, Hostile, and Genesis Elite.

That's actually not it at all, after some digging and testing (for bug report purposes, which have been sent in sparing no expense to detail) it's something much less difficult. I'm actually surprised more people didn't find out how to do it sooner. Since it's an exploit I can't explain it to the public since that'd be bad, but I urge anyone on this thread who actually can replicate it, to send in bug reports until ZoS realizes the urgency and hot fixes it or forces a patch.Old member of The Order of Mundus, Mostly Harmless, Hostile, and Genesis Elite.

At the very least the ability should be disabled until the fix is ready (as should have been done with Caltrops back when they stopped damage to siege weapons).Unsubbed and no longer playing, but still checking the Alliance War forum for the lulz.

Are you kidding? Are pc players going to have to wait for consoles? The console patch is like 1 month away.
You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.

I did replicate it without using any "trigger". Didn't work on single players or small groups of players who dodgerolled it fast enough. On bunched up people who don't roll it works 9 out of 10 times.
Done a bug report. Will be fixed soon EU | PC0 -
maybe its mutiple players placing traps all stacked it doesnt have a name of the player tied to the dmg just rearming trap0
