Guest Dandytard Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Hahahaha, You sir are a bloody genius! I think I'll try this one out, when I get enough materials to build anything.I love how that rabbit is just standing there, as if saying 'First time someone isn't farming us only.'

Osterhasi Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I used this technique too, but since an update/hotfix the spiders walked through the traps, so I couldn't catch them. Maybe the devs re-fixed it or it's a bug in my game. Now I farm spiders by planting a spider egg in a piggy town. They fight each other at dawn and the next day I can pick up some silk.

Guest Dandytard Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 My problem is that usually my own bees end up in traps somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palpetinus Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Bees.. can be trapped? Now that makes sense, little bees knocking over a big goddamn stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osterhasi Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) Bees.. can be trapped? Now that makes sense, little bees knocking over a big goddamn stick.The stick is just to hold the trap up. The mechanism to close the trap is activated by a laser, which reacts if sth. interrupts the laser. Then an other mechanism produces a blast wave, which knocks the stick down.

Guest Dandytard Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 It also USED to incinerate anything that is caught beneath the trap, Which explains why you could find stingers and meat under it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nxf7 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Wouldn't the morsels come precooked if that was the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palpetinus Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Obviously the trap contains spikes on the inside, impaling everything getting caught. Because of the new cost reduction when buiding it, you had to remove some of those spikes. That's why some animals survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dandytard Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 However, That doesn't explain why there's just a piece of meat, instead of a corpse inside the trap. The incineration would be strong enough to burn the critter's bones and flesh ( I'm bullpooping here.), however leaving the organs scratchless.

JebusTheFrog Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Yeah it's a special non meat cooking laser, duh. Guys combine super simple stuff here xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nornagest Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 It's a little bit complicated to explain, because it's SCIENCE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 dang you guys really got carried away with the laser nonsense on a side note has anyone found this helpful for them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nxf7 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I already knew about it but didn't bother since it was easy enough killing 4 spiders at a time. Now that there's around 8 coming out when you hit the nest I've been using a few traps to cut the numbers back down to what they were Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzzy Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 no problem man hope this helped you.Indeed, it helps a lot with those level three spider nests that have a lot of spiders in them, dealing with them gets really easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Teemo Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 yeah im too lazy kiting and ur method is very effective =3 thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NippleKing Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Wow i didn't actually think a lot of people didn't know about this.I thought it was well known.I knew about it but's it's more fun fighting them and getting pwned because it teaches me to be less ballsy :PP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Teemo Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 i knew about it but never try it out because it was real easy killing 4 of them before, now that it spawn in 8 or 9 it takes forever to kite them and u end up losing their meat cuz the other spider ran back and eat them all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NippleKing Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Oh i see.Also,why are you running out of rocks in your world Teemo O.o.What could you possibly doing to use that many rocks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
501105 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Seems like an effective method but a tad too effective maybe. I love planting spider nests near tentacles to watch the fun and get lots of silk and monster meat, the only downside is that tentacles run out eventually.
