what it is

The heavy version of the standard dart trap, built into the walls of the Jungle Temple and occasionally sitting just outside the door. Wired to a timer it fires forever with nothing to reload, on a cooldown of a few seconds. The poison it puts on you is the reason temple exploration goes badly the moment you walk into a room without reading the walls first.

taking them home

You cannot pull one out until you have the Picksaw, and explosives will not free them before Golem is dead. Once you can harvest them they are the best passive damage you can wire into a farm, because they cost nothing to run and hit far harder than anything you could build yourself at that stage.

wiring them properly

  • Darts pierce but they also apply invincibility frames, so a tall column of traps all firing down one lane mostly wastes itself. Spread them across separate lanes instead.
  • A dart passes through one block placed directly in front of the muzzle, which lets you bury the trap inside a wall and leave a clean surface.
  • A hammer rotates the trap ninety degrees, so a vertical shaft works as well as a corridor.
  • The darts travel an absurd distance before they expire, so one trap can cover a whole long hallway from one end.
