Rearming Trap and it's usefulness

boombazookajd · December 2017

I've run into a few situations, I think main bosses, where the target is immune to rearming traps immobilization.

So, to my questions:
If the target is immune to the immobilization;
1. Does an undead/daedric target still take the magic damage?
2. Is Minor Force still gained?
3. Is any damage dealt to the target at all?

Ok great. I was concerned that this wasn't the case and that I was doing something wrong.

Execpt for the magic Damage you say is physical damage.

sorry, was using Fextralife as a source, and its wrong.

Set a sharpened blade trap at your location.
When triggered, the trap deals 397 Magic Damage, immobilizes an enemy for 6 seconds, and grants Minor Force which increases critical damage by 12%.
It also burns undead and Daedra for an additional 1083 Magic Damage.
The trap takes 1.5 seconds to arm and lasts for 1 minute. After being triggered, the trap resets and can be triggered one more time.
Trap rearms once after firing.

I forget that Fextralife can be inaccurate.

Regarding Rearming Trap, how viable is it using on a magicka character for the sake of minor force? Thoughts anyione?

Yeah, that site is junk. Never use any other site but http://en.uesp.net/wiki/Main_Page for your ESO needs. UESP is simply the best site on the internet for all your elder scrolls needs.

Rearming trap is not really used for the immobilization. The main thing is minor force and damage. Only in vMA or PvP is the cc really useful.

for PvP it is especially useful against permablockers with low stamina pool(yes, mDks),
and the dot+minor force are icing on that great cake.

9/10 times I do, and I've got it bookmarked. This was just laziness on my part.
