[QUOTE="Ravingdork, post: 4211510, member: 12084"] Did anyone notice that it is practically impossible to be hit by the flame jets once you know they are there? It attacks as a reaction, not an interrupt. So you can move through the area and, unless you are really slow, it won't burst until [U]after[/U] you have cleared the area. Even slow creatures could run through it (a 4-square speed creature can run 12 squares in a round, easily avoiding multiple flame jet traps). :rolleyes: After the first round it starts bursting on initiative, which means the PCs only have to watch it, get the timing down, and then move through it with ease. I'm sure if you have enough flame jets covering a large enough area, somebody is bound to get burned by them though. Also, I'm confused by the number of jets (particularly where it says to increase them). Does it get a seperate attack for each jet? If so, does it cover a 3x3 area PER jet? Why is that considered one trap and not two? [/QUOTE]
