[Loud Whispers]

Has anyone tried a bridge/pitfall with cages at the bottom vs trapavoid?

Doesn't work. Unless they pass out from pain (in which case it was a high drop).

[Frogwarrior]

You sure? A fall would stun them, right? Is stunning enough to allow them to be trapped?
Although it definitely wouldn't work on forgotten beasts / titans, since they don't get stunned or knocked unconscious. However, it would (if stunning works that way) work on kobolds and sometimes humans, since as I recall humans are immune to all your traps that were in place when their last diplomat left.

If you want simple, bronze colossuses and most other megabeasts don't have trapavoid-- a single cage trap will snag them as easily as it will a goblin.

If you're concerned about titans (who do have trapavoid), the wiki page on trap design contains a few designs at the bottom for snagging trapavoid building destroyers.

Old post, but where in this guide is the trapavoid?
