Do trap skills need accuracy?
|
If I link a trap support gem to a bow attack does my accuracy rating affect whether or not the the attack hits?
Or does the trap gem make a spell giving it 100% chance to hit? Does Fire penetration effect the burning damage on Fire trap or just the initial explosion? Last edited by maLcious#5631 on Jul 17, 2014, 12:32:19 PM

You are not casting the skill so no, it does not use your accuracy.

from wiki
" I need more purple titles

" Traps, Mines and Totems always use the character's stats, including Accuracy. An Attack is an Attack. It checks for Accuracy. |

Well, I think it does use your accuracy.
e.g Trap with Puncture. It does miss, and hence accuracy is involved. Where else does it get an accuracy stat if not yours? Native traps... probably not. |

so many conflicting answers .
if you use a trap/mine/totem which have an attack linked to it , it will use your accuracy (ranged attack totem/trap/remote mine support gems). if you use a trap/mine/totem which have a spell linked to it , it will not use your accuracy as spells do not use accuracy (spell totem/trap/remote mine support gems). if you use ordinary traps/mines/totems , that is an active skill gem and not use one of the above support gems it will not require accuracy. A list for you to see which totems/traps/mines which NEVER uses accuracy. Decoy Totem Devouring Totem Flame Totem Rejuvenation Totem Shockwave Totem Ranged Attack Totem Searing Bond Fire Trap Lightning Trap Bear Trap Conversion Trap Freeze Mine Smoke Mine Hopefully that clears things up for you. |

" good answer, does phase acrobatics and spell block apply to these that do not use accuracy? in other words can I block a bear trap? And if the answer is yes. Will I just block the dmg or also the movement penalty? thanks items shop: 364086 ign: [ICU]missuse if you like to HLD, add me inactive in game atm, PM me if you need something.

Bear Trap is neither an Attack nor a Spell.
Block/Dodge works against Attacks, Spell Block/Spell Dodge prevents Spell Damage. You're gonna get snared. Fire/Lightning Trap are both Spells. Spells are Spells, and can be Spell Blocked/Dodged. Flame and Shockwave Totem use a Spell as well. Searing Bond is Damage over Time, which is neither Attack nor Spell. " You already said it did use Accuracy :P (RAT uses Attacks, and Attacks require an Accuracy check) Last edited by Vipermagi#0984 on Jul 18, 2014, 6:49:06 AM

" Its effect is technically a spell it just doesn't do spell damage, there are a few more effects that do damage that is neither an attack nor a spell, like detonate dead, shockwave totem and explosions caused by EA and infernal blow. Wish the armchair developers would go back to developing armchairs.
