Trap making and using them.

Hi everyone.

I'm about to start a new game with a Dwarf Rogue and was wondering if anyone had any experience with traps, other then disarming them? Can you place traps during combat? Does it break stealth?

Thanks in advance.

Once you get to the third level of stealth, you can set traps without breaking it. Personally, I think traps are great for setting up ambushes in indoor areas, especially early on where every little bit counts.

But I wouldn't worry much about stealth associated with setting traps. Presently, Sten is my traps guy. I'll scout ahead with my rogue, find a room with beasties, close the door, set some traps, and then use someone as bait to draw them out.

A grease trap combined with some bear traps coupled with two rogues hurling acid and fire bombs pretty much leads to lights out for a group of enemies. And it's fun!
