This glitch involves the fighter's guild bear traps skill (Morph of Trap Beast). I'll post a video showing the aftermath but I assure you it was the bear trap that did me in the first time.

An enemy night blade planted a trap near for door (where we were all at but couldn't see him for obvious reasons). I stood in said trap for less than 10 seconds and was dealt 26k damage in that time frame. The video will show me being revived after being killed the first time then almost dying again since I spawned into one (notice that nearly half of my HP was healed upon revive and I almost died a second time due to it.

    This bug/exploit is well documented. @ZOS is looking at the issue. On PC it also bugs your game so you have to log out to resolve the glitches your character has after.

    I'm not convinced we can be calling this a glitch. For most people the trap only does minimal damage, however if you tune your alt to absolutely maximize the damage it outputs (4K+ weapon damage, high crit%, sharpened weapons, all CPs in thaumatage) then yeah, you can do a LOT of damage with it (you're also pretty easy to kill if you leave the shadows). The fact that the trap reappeared is an intended mechanic of the re-arming trap morph. On my NB stamina glass cannon yeah, you walk into my traps while im stealthed and you'll cop 15- 30K damage depending on whether your undead or not , do the same thing on my magicka DK and I'll be lucky to do 2k damage.

    Now I know in some instances re-arming traps is re-arming more than once, that is a glitch and shouldn't be happening.

    If we go about the game with the mentality that no one skill is allowed to do ridiculous damage then we also need to nerf crystal shards, snipe, radiant oppression, executioner and overload....

    The real glitch is that it bugs out your game where you have to restart the client.

    As I said, in some instances the traps are re-arming more than once - that is a glitch. That's when you'll see your 200K DPS, what this video shows though is it re-arming once and going off as intended......

    Should rename the skill to Troll Beast.

    Expect this to get fixed in a few months like every other PvP exploit. Wall of elements, dawnbreaker, etc. Ignored for months.

    But if someone finds a grind spot, nerf it with a hotfix the same day!

    I'm sorry but this is by far a glitch as it's not based on

    The video doesn't show that at all, it shows the aftermath of the bug because it didn't record the last 30 seconds properly. I'm not sure if there was more than once but nevertheless the trap beast shouldn't be 1 hitting people especially if said person is in full heavy armor with 26k HP.

    Well it doesn't really, unless your saying you have 52K health? The video shows you losing almost half of your total health which I'm guessing is closer to around 12 - 14K damage, which depending on the build of the player that put the trap there is perfectly reasonable, especially for a NB who was probably watching from a distance and hitting dark clock to make sure he/she got the crit hit. Again, I really don't have a problem with what I've seen from the video posted.
