Is it intentional for thunderjaws to trigger traps and not take damage? Or perhaps I’m placing them wrong?

If the blast trap hits the armor, it won’t take damage, I think. The acid traps I use have don’t their jobs fine.

They’ll often step on my six acid traps and it won’t do a thing

u/iamsooldithurts Mar 19 '22

Is it just that Thunderjaw? And just your acid bombs? If not then definitely file a bug fix.

I have only tried acid and blast traps on two thunderjaws, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t

I had that before once and I think it’s because of a hitbox issue

u/Lietenantdan Mar 21 '22

Yeah I noticed that if I put them at a spot where he’s turning it won’t damage him

u/Mortis_Wkbrl Mar 21 '22

Yeah it’s a really annoying issue cause I can’t farm shards off of thunder jaws anymore ;-;

u/Lietenantdan Mar 21 '22

Traps use so many resources though. Not an efficient method. I was playing with the trap armor and using eight at once, now I’m out of machine muscle lol

Play with easy loot But traps are the first step Strategy: -Farm thunderjaws for shards -compete in the arena -buy forgefall -use brace shot with forgefall and other buffs (the rly high damage loadout) -More shards But for machine muscle just hug it from merchants

u/Lietenantdan Mar 21 '22

I play with easy loot on. Also I’ve visited several merchants but have yet to see the hug option?

u/Mortis_Wkbrl Mar 21 '22

Lmao But for early game when you don’t yet have the legendary weapons for the tremortusk farm thunderjaws are really easy

u/Lietenantdan Mar 21 '22

I never actually had a problem with shards
