Trap in Neb's House in the Bridge District

So, is that like, completely undisarmable, or what? I think I've tried it with about 225 points (natural and item-enhanced), and it still goes off when I try to disarm it. My latest run-through with Fade made me start thinking about it again.

I wouldn't even know where to begin to check what level it's designed to be disarmed at, and am most likely far too lazy to check even if I did.

Has anyone ever been able to disarm that sucker?

 

AFAIK, it is undisarmable. I've never been able to disarm it, no matter if I had maxed Find Traps or not.

 

The difficulty is set at 100, so yes, it will always smack you in the face. I don't even bother to try to disarm it anymore because that just means my thief takes the hit. Now I just unlock it and send the meat over.

 

I fell for the same trick. a couple of days ago, my solo F/M/T had a few level drained when fighting the kiddie spirits and was down to 30hp after fighting Neb. i was really paying attention and when i tried to disarm the trap, it flattened me, and i tried to reload, but the previous save was an autosave, so i had to redo the bridge district again which really sucked. the second time around, i healed up before taking the hit and onl just managed to pull through (about 7hp left i think). so it is a pain in the ass and should always be remembered when doing that quest.

 

Yes. Especially on insane difficulty. That trap killed my poor Nalia irreversibly due to massive damage. I guess it is acid damage. My poor Nalia melted. Power word:Reload!

 

I was bored once and did this: equip your thief with boots of speed and free action (I had the ring). Have them untrap the safe. They take the damage 98% of the time, but occasionally you can outrun it since your are fast and can't be held by the trap.

 

IIRC, that place had nothing of value, so by bother with it at all...?

 

The trapped container has 452 gold, a silver necklace, an angel skin ring, and a random treasure.

 

There'a always the illithium ore.

 

And for that measly treasure I had my poor Nalia melted. I still can not forget her death scream...

Luckily, I am a 'save often, save sperately, and save whenever you have the chance' guy, so no problems with me.

 

Umm I don't remember a trap and I did that a few days ago ...

 

Then you missed the painting.

 

You can avoid the damage of that trap with prot.from Acid or Mirror Image (or both , I can't remember).

 

So glad others have had this problem too. Not just me.

I felt a right muppet failing my attempt.
My protagenist was hiding his head in shame!

 

It is a nasty death trap for low HP characters.
