I am in my 5th TD now, and they are not scary at all... I am level 48 using level 35 gear, okay and I am just laughing at mobs.
lvl35 Battleaxe [105ee] / lvl25 chain [40 str] / lvl30 main charm [60 stat] and lvl35 focus [100ee] ACC slot.
Nothing grand really, with my armor I should be getting my butt kicked.

Are TD's basically broken?

20:41 You fall through a trapdoor.
20:57 You fall through a trapdoor.
21:20 You fall through a trapdoor.
22:17 You fall through a trapdoor.
22:45 You fall through a trapdoor



I will check... I am level 50 now... still using same gear until 55... but if I clear most of the map... I will carry on.

At time of EDIT:
Battleaxe [721/2000] ... [791/2000]
Focus Heal [966/1000]

6 attacks with battleaxe vs 2 monsters [792/2000] ... I have to double check this again... that is nice Prof Gain [maybe i typeO'd previous edit]
11 attacks with battleaxe vs 2 monsters [794/2000]... yup typO'd first edit.
5 attacks with battleaxe vs 1 monster [796/2000]
2 attacks with battleaxe vs 1 monster [797/2000]

For some reason I feel they used to be worse, could be just me but I remember them being more difficult after a few falls.

E: lmao @ Rick

While you are at it, could you check the progression of your proficiencies?? Does it advance faster or slower the deeper you go?

( Oh yeah -- double entendres all over the place )

Battleaxe [791/2000]
Focus Heal [966/1000]

6 attacks with battleaxe vs 2 monsters [792/2000]
11 attacks with battleaxe vs 2 monsters [794/2000]
5 attacks with battleaxe vs 1 monster [796/2000]
2 attacks with battleaxe vs 1 monster [797/2000]
11 attacks with battleaxe vs 2 monsters [801/2000]

Don't seem to be any better for prof gain... sorry.



Noticed same thing on MQ'd toons... not much difference and easy
But then... I maybe too drunk when gaming...

Oh well -- seems that my opinion about TD's is becoming more and more believable:

Nothing good ever comes from traps.

its your first climb on that char [noob protection] so fighting 2mobs / 1 evil is easy in tds aswell...


retry next climb and you will feel the difference

Dang it... router dropped connection... pity... wanted to test this out more.
Anyway... hopefully others maybe able to give their experiences in the meantime.

I will test this more... from level 25-71 in same game with TDs in the future.

EDIT: I did forget that my characters go upto 125 vita also... maybe that is the reason.

EDIT2: dang... started new game @ 51... I actually HAD to regen... and I am not in a TD.
It is broken... well that is my consensus.... includes EP encounter [1] that dropped TierVII which was better than 5 TDs

EDIT3: Pity my router dropped... started again at level 51.

00:41 You fall through a trapdoor.
00:44 You fall through a trapdoor.

Would have been 7 Trap Doors

Yep
When I lvled my mule for the first time I nearly never came up against a group of 3 monsters at the same time...

Yup... I understand the logic here... more monsters = more damage taken per second [simple logic]... what is missing
is the fact that they still do the same damage when I was level 30 [not in a TD] to level 51 [5th TD] and still using a level 25
chain mail that has ZERO enhanced effect.

Anyway... not argue'ing, but, I think Trap Doors are broken because Drops suck [might as well not be in a TD], profs are not
any better [might as well not be in a TD], experience is the same = 1-2% per monster kill [might as well not be in a TD], Evil
Presence don't drop anything good and give same experience [might as well not be in a TD]

Would like more examples of people that do this constantly running solo and as much TDs as they come across.
