Exploding Chests - Explain.

Post by freshdoom » Mon Dec 26, 2005 7:36 am

I'm currently a lvl 20 Martial Artist. I'm pretty successful in completing all the missions etc, unless I face some exploding trap in a chest that blasts me for 700 something damage. I know I can up my Perception to avoid it, but is there an easier way to avoiding explosions? I notice most people don't put any points into perception.

There's 'Dodge Explosion'...
Or there's 'Trap Dissarm'...
Or you can use them togeather...
Or there's always lots more armour...! :lol:

Exploding chests are a bane on us all, personaly, I just load up with armour & run the gauntlet, none of my chars have any trap dissarm or dodge explosion skills...

Me too snakebite.

I usualy just go with the biggest AC buff I can get and just open em up. But lately (lvl171) they've been hitting pretty hard. So since I'm all capped out, I put a few IP into trap disarm and dodge.
I just hope I don't regret it later :/
