[edit] Page Rewrite

I did the same with this page as I did with the Oblivion:Traps page. All (or most) traps should be covered, have a picture and description. The traps are not categorised as Magic or Physical, but as where they appear (In the Root Tunnel or Ruin sections of Dungeons) as this seemed like a clearer distinction.

[edit] Septim Trap

In one of the Isles' ruins, is there a trap that rains/drops Septims/Drakes/Gold before using a offensive spell or physical effect trap against the player? I'm sure I've seen something about 'raining Septims' on one of the trap pages.--Merco 11:02, 15 August 2007 (EDT)

that is in Ebrocca and it isnt a different trap, its just a combination of a trapped floor and a dart trap that has tresure placed on it-(Warmanivan 06:16, 11 October 2008 (EDT))

[edit] Atronach Trap Reversal

For atronach characters hunger traps and traps like them can be a good way of restoring their magicka if they run four oblivion gates at 17+ and make sure they get the spell absorbtion effect by saving before they close the gate seeing as the effect is determined when the stone is added to your inventory

[edit] Tortured Statue

In the ruin of Ebrocca, and the room called Fiele, there is a trap, named here as Tortured statue. It fires at you with Damage health and seem to be built of a lot of sheogorath statues. Shouldn't this trap be named on this trappage? -Goblin lair 19:33, 29 July 2008 (EDT)

It's true the appearance is unique, but it's essentially the same as the Hunger/Scalon Statue. But the real reason that trap is not covered on this page is because it is unique to Ebrocca, and the trap can better be explained there. Ebrocca seems to have more of these peculiar traps (e.g. the Septims falling on you, followed by Darts), and to list all of these here would be too much of the good thing. --Timenn < talk > 07:50, 30 July 2008 (EDT)

Ok then I know. -Goblin lair 9:43, 4 August 2008 (EDT)
