Deployable trap to catch Pests.

Overview

Pest Trap is a deployable, mobile trap item used to capture Pests. It functions as a placeable device that players set in the environment to intercept and detain small hostile or nuisance creatures classified in-game as Pests. The item appears as a single-use or reusable deployable that remains at its positioned location until it catches a target or is removed by the player.

Deployment is performed by placing the trap on the ground at a chosen location; the trap is designed to be positionable so it can be moved and re-laid to cover pathways, chokepoints, or likely Pest spawn routes. Because the trap targets Pests specifically, it does not affect larger enemies or other creature classes; it is intended for dealing with infestations and disrupting small, recurring nuisance spawns.

Practical usage and interaction notes:

  • Place traps along common Pest movement corridors, near spawn points, or adjacent to objectives that are frequently overrun to reduce incidental Pest interference.
  • Use traps to create safe zones for resource gathering or to protect static structures by spacing multiple traps to cover likely approach angles.
  • Traps are most effective when combined with baiting or environmental funneling: positioning them where Pests are funneled by terrain, walls, or other obstacles increases capture rates.
  • The item is portable prior to deployment; carry and redeploy traps as front lines shift or infestation patterns change.
  • Traps do not engage larger enemy types and will not substitute for direct-combat defenses; use them as a complement to combat units and area-control measures.
  • Traps can be removed or collected after deployment where the game permits, allowing recycling of placement when tactical needs evolve.

Pest Trap is a tactical tool for passive Pest control and area denial. Proper placement and integration into broader defensive or resource-protection plans maximize its utility against small, troublesome creature spawns.
