Hi,

I haven't had any problems with Spot 61, Search 64, Disable 69 yet.

I've done most of the old epics and all of the MotU quests with traps on EE. It's possible I've been rolling well, but I remember some low ones on VoN5 EE and I didn't fail or blow any boxes.

Those numbers are not hard to reach if you've maxed your skills and got decent but not extraordinary gear.

Good luck with it.

ya same I think my search and disable are 66 to 70 I never have a problem finding and disableing. The 70 is if I choose to do a boost or equip another piece of gear. Alot of times I'm just to lazy so I figure i'll roll the dice and see what happens with the 66 lol.

However if you do go below that in search, ive found boxes tend to not show emself. Whether it was the number or just some bugs who knows. Not to hard to hit the numbers though with stuff from cannith, and especially if you take the time to farm out an epic spyglass. By far the most usefull item for a trapper.

You could even take it to epic lengths and craft up a +3 exceptional int item (I did just for displace clickies) and a int exceptional skills item to toss on for traps. (This I didn't do, mainly because it's overkill and ive yet to find any traps I had trouble with. Even with by starting base of 14 int.)

Tx both for the replies.

Im reasonably confident I can hit those targets with a bit of tweaking with Zongen.

I'm so happy I'll order another ale! ;)

I think mine are closer to 60ish and don't have issues though low rolls on EE traps can result in a "fail" without blowing the box - so can just try again. Some EE MotU spell wards blow up but they can just be tried again anyway. My rogue doesn't see fails but my archer has properly marginal stats - only 9 base int, 7 ranks in disable and 15 in search - and can still manage all traps with correct gear, layout in my sig.
