A growing coalition of players is pushing back against the fragility of ceiling drop traps in Stonewood endurance setups. As mounting enemy assaults continue, fresh strategies emerge to boost trap durability amidst ongoing frustrations.

The Fragility Issue

Players are reporting heightened wear on ceiling drop traps, particularly due to relentless enemy bombardments. Many believe itโ€™s not about outright destruction, but rather the trapsโ€™ low durability that leads to their rapid degradation.

"The surface theyโ€™re on will be destroyed if itโ€™s damage-related. If itโ€™s bare, they ran out of durability," highlighted one user, further emphasizing player concerns.

Multiple strategies have surfaced, with one player suggesting, "If youโ€™re not already doing it, place all your build first before traps. Traps placed after builds donโ€™t count against the build limit."

Enhanced Strategies for Trap Durability

The community has come together to discuss various methods to bolster trap effectiveness:

  • Employ Mechanist Harper as Commander: This commander offers notable durability perks.

  • Utilize Constructors with Trap Durability Buffs: This approach enhances trap life during endurance rounds.

  • Focus on Survivor Squads: Itโ€™s wise to select squads that provide durability perks over damage.

  • Incorporate Wooden Floor Spikes: This addition improves protection against enemy onslaughts.

Players also explored the possibility of using anti-air traps above ceiling drop traps, acknowledging additional threats from airborne enemies. One participant stated, "Trap Dura survivor bonus and Machinist Harper work well together."

"You donโ€™t need crit rating or damage on those traps for Stonewood spawn trapping; just make them all durability perks," advised another community member.

Key Considerations

  • โš ๏ธ Managing trap durability is vital for thriving AFK setups.

  • ๐Ÿ’ก Switching to the right constructor yields significant improvements.

  • ๐Ÿ” Lobbers and flingers pose a threatโ€”but maintaining durability remains crucial.

  • ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Incorporating wooden floor spikes enhances defensive protocols.

Players remain committed to finding ways to fortify their setups. Will these new strategies genuinely impact how traps function in AFK endurance?

Final Thoughts

The discourse surrounding the protection of ceiling drop traps reveals a dynamic community eager to enhance gameplay. With a combination of innovative tactics and collaborative spirit, players continually seek to adapt and improve their defenses.
