[Idea] WvW Caltrops Trap

A new Tricks and Traps item, Caltrops can be placed on the ground, just like a Supply Removal Trap or a Target Painter Trap, for 5 supply and when road over by a mounted enemy player they will become dismounted and trigger an area that continues to dismount enemy players riding over it for 10 seconds. Cannot be evaded.

And puts you in combat. This would help slow down respawns

Honestly this idea should just be merged as an added bonus to stealth trap.

Would it be in a line like the other traps, or in a circle the size of thief caltrops (not the dodge one)? And it should only affect mounts and not players because we know what would happen then hehe.

Or every trap.

A line trap. Idk what you mean by the rest though, it's a dismount trap.

I wouldn't roll it all into one trap because you would just be garbage canning thieves with a painter trap on another level.

Well it had to be mentioned, you know with oversights and all...

And have it apply every damaging condition in the game, carry over to the player after being dismounted. Free bag.

Edit: The Trigger Blossoms in the AB meta come to mind on this. 1200 radius with a pulsing intensity...

? I happen to like warclaw. I also like counters.

I think we shouldn't go with the idea of such traps/tricks, consider it like dealing with the previous perma stealth Deadeye, we went from traps to sentries and watchtowers etc, to end up and finally deciding it is time to nerf the DE stealth (don't eat me for this, just giving example)

so we would probably go through the same steps again if that's what they decide to add, it would start trap, then they will upgrade sentries to use rifles and that rifle attack dismount players and so on, then they will decide to nerf the mount itself.

Long process and nothing gets reverts.

If they do add a trap like this, then make the skill 2 on mount be able to scan these traps as well with that long cooldown.Think that is a fair tradeoff cos currently that skill is useless.

I can't believe it was released without something like this. I was sure there would be something like the forged traps and obstacles. Maybe we will get a pike.
