Dude, that sucks. I know it's not broken everywhere; Evan regularly takes no damage from Minotaur fireballs because he makes his reflex save.

Acid traps have been bugged for a while now... I believe it had something to do with an update from Bioware, which they address but likely didn't get changed with our lewt script... Blame moth.

Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you!

The same with Sonic traps.

Even with Improved Evasion, I've taken damage from both Acid and Sonic, and maybe even some other spells requiring Reflex saves...

A lone tear streaked down Case's cheek at this.  Two for the effort of one..

I thought with one of the wacky updates they changed sonic damage to 'elemental' type damage which is silly, on my old server, my bards curse song damage could be negated by elemental protection o.O  which is just silly.

Secondly I thought improved evasion has 'always' been bugged versus traps, since the game began? Sure as heck works against critters and their spells.. seen it in action with Taro (monk).

One thing a lot of people don't know is that only 4 traps in the game are effected by Evasion, being Fire, Electric, Acid Splash (not Acid Blob), and Spike.  Additionally, you do make reflex savesfor Acid Blob and Tangle, but for Acid Blog, you are only avoiding the paralysis effect, and for Tangle, you are avoiding getting... tangled.

Ahh... that clears things up for me.

Evasion only works if it is a REFLEX save for HALFING the DAMAGE...

Those times it "doesn't work" is because we're rolling to avoid a status ailment...

That thing about the acid blob is lame, though. Firstly evasion should effect the damage, and the paralysis should be a fortitude save...

If I get a fort save for no con damage from ten black mamba snakebites,
I should get one for that.
