Find Trap

Trap sense

Carl's advanced trap-detection skill, which spotted the automaton bomb cluster through the battlefield smoke.

Story so far

Mid-battle on the roof of The Barracks, Carl's trap sense tingles and multiple lights appear glaring through the smoke from the far right corner of the chaos. Thanks to his advanced Find Trap skill, info boxes start popping up one after another, telling him someone is arming a great many Automatons rigged with proximity-triggered Explosive Satchels.

The warning gives him time to check his map, confirm the dots are all enemy, brace the camp over Warlord Chat, and pre-empt the entire demolition attempt with Tripper. It is the clearest demonstration yet of why Carl considers a trap-laden battlefield his playground.

Role

Carl's detection skill for enemy traps and explosives, feeding him detailed info boxes.
