Cannot Search

[Sparhawkson]

Elven Rogue(1)/Ranger(6)/Fighter(1).

I can no longer automatically detect traps or secret doors.

My search function does not work even if I know where trap control mechanisms are.

My hireling (elven cleric) can detect them but I still cannot find them.

Traps are killing me now!

Seems to be since the last update.

Anyone else seen this/any ideas?

The traps difficulty level goes up as the dungeon levels go up. Which means you are trying to look for level 8 traps with a level 1 rogue skill set. I found this out with my ranger/rogue. I also could sense the traps but could not find them till I changed out gear the improved my search skill. I found the same issue with lock-picking and disabling traps, I kept getting failures. Once I realized this, I started to train levels on the rogue side to raise the skills. At level 10 ranger/4 rogue, I still have to use the gear to find stuff in the level 12 and up areas. I commonly switch around hot-keyed gear as I go in order to increase spotting, search and then to either lock picking or disabling gear as needed.

Have you maxed out your Search, DD, and Spot skills in each level? Also are you using the highest (+9 in your case) Eagle, Finding, and Escaping items with +5 thieves tool?
