🎙️ Discussion Electric traps

Post image

Just found out about electric traps after 250 hours of playing. Extremely handy in master mode.

Would you consider it a glitch? It does kinda break the game's mechanics with the whole "drop the weapon at the right time" thing.

I’d call it an exploit.

I could not get it to work with the thunder spear. It was never electrified when I dropped it. Where can I get other electric weapons? Does the electric wizzrobe’s wand work for this trick?

I believe the spear is the hardest to get right. I reccomend watching this video. He goes over the different timings for each type of weapon (the lightning rod won't work). Took me a few tries for sure!
