Needle trap

File:Needle trap.png

The needle trap is a mechanical trap which fires poisoned needles when stepped upon by a player or monster. They can fire 3-11 times before running out of ammo, and inflict a mild amount of poison on anyone who steps on it.

A source of Repel Missiles reduces the chance of this trap being able to hit the player.

History

• In 0.24, needle traps were replaced with dart traps.
• Prior to 0.15, stepping on a needle trap would generate a single poisoned needle ammunition.
• Earlier versions could hold non-poisoned needles.
