Trapmaking

[boilerman]

One question on it, do you think it is worth it or not?

I have a 12 Drow Ranger / 6 Monk /1 Rogue build that I have up to level 13 at the moment. I have not decided what that last level would be at the moment.

He took Ninja Spy, and I have found the Ki - Invis on demand is very very nice.

This build has room for some extra feats so I was thinking about trap making mainly for noise Makers.

I do have some trap parts (with another toon), yet I have never made anything with trapmaking.

Any thoughts on whether its worth the 2 feats?

Absolutely, positively NOT worth it.

Honestly, it's not worth the time to set the trap, even for people who get the feats for free. As you seem to have heard, the only really useful trap is the noisemaker but it's only useful if you stealth solo quests. It can easily be replaced by simply throwing a dagger.

Another toughness feat or two would be worth far more than trapmaking.

Thank you! Right now this build has a 2nd toughness, so I could have found some room (as i get all my TWF from the ranger levels). However, this is kind of what I had heard and was interested in feedback.
