Barn trap exploit.

[Doomevony]

The iron trap and improved iron trap you get from the level 2 barn DO NOT share cooldowns. This is mildly useful, but the true exploit is when you deploy both traps on the exact same place and lead a mob over it. You get TWO caged beasts for ONE mob. I do not have l3 barn, but I would guess that if you get another trap from that it would possible allow THREE caged beasts instead of one to be caught per mob.

UPDATE: Even better than I thought. After dropping the first 2 traps, wait out the 15s cooldown, and then drop two more. After they arm, kite the mob over all 4 traps. You have 30s from the time you deployed the first 2 before they despawn.

UPDATE 2: This SHOULD allow you to get 2 elite beasts for 1 using the level 3 trap if you wait out the new shorter cooldown before dropping the second trap right on top of the first trap. I don't have l3 barn so I can't test it myself, but it should work the same way as the other traps do. Needs testing.

This might potentially work in a party if all players drop traps in the exact same location, though I did notice a rapid despawn on the mob when applying 4 traps at once, so somebody with the l3 trap should definitely try this out and report back.

Does the low tier traps work on elites?

Well on level 3 barn you get special trap, and only with that one you can catch elites that has the chance to give you savage blood, so with level 3 barn i don't think it's worth it, but nice find while you are on level 2.

Well, it's easy to get anything on level 2 and while there this thing can be useful and save a bit of time.

I've updated the initial post with a likely method for players trapping elites to get double caged beasts for it.

Yes, works. Using this since they changed traps to 15s cooldown. Put down a trap at 70% or sth (depending on your kill speed), keep killing the elite, lay down 2nd trap, (release pet, if you are using one), backpaddle some steps, easy 100% double t(r)ap.

How do i get a lvl1 trap? When i upgraded the building it disapeared from my bag. You can loot extra trap in the Barn, but that's lvl2 only.

When I upgraded the barn it got rid of my old trap and replaced it with improve. Is this normal or is it fixed?

I think it's actually the QUEST you complete for workorders that does that. I ended up rebuilding my barn and grabbing the original trap before upgrading it again to keep both. I did this when I realized the need for savage bloods was greater than my need for a trading post thanks to scavenger.

In other news, I am now suspended for 72 hours for linking the "Blizzard" symbol. Of all the stuff I do that has to be the DUMBEST thing to get a suspension for lol.

So when I upgrade to rank 3 do not do the quest?

It's going to be some time before I reach rank 3 to see what that quest does for the other 2 traps,esp now that I'm suspended, but either way you can only trap the important elites with the lvl 3 trap. So best you could do is 2 for 1 anyway. Exploiting the other traps is not a big deal once you hit lvl 3 barn.
