aye.... i have also been playing around with this --

i have tried using the object on trapped chests, the chests have vanished in all instances and nothing dropped from any of them - the DC check alyways seems to be my roll agains a DC-1 ..... i dont have that many points in disable trap yet, but these chests were in low level areas (orcs, bandits, yuan-ti)......sooo, i am baffled

i may have found a Bug in the item as well ...im going to play around with it some more so i can make a more detailed post in a little while....

Has anyone expirienced problems with triggered traps that didn't involve the dismantling tool?

Ok so I got the big exploit fixed (or so I hope).

You should now only be able to use the device on traps, and only on trap kits so not on traps that are allready set.

I get no components from any trap I use the tool on. I tried both crafted and recovered traps at different levels from avg to epic. The kits do disappear though. I hope this helps.

Do you get a roll in the action window? or any type of message

I got a successful roll and lost my recovered traps, but did not receive any components.

The "You cannot use that item." message was when I tried to use the trap dismantler on a trap stored in a box. Not too big of a deal, but it would be nice if it worked so you don't have to empty out your box o' traps in order to dismantle them. Although from a roleplay perspective, I guess it kind of makes sense that you'd have to remove it from the box first.

I get a roll vs various DC which is successfull. After the reset today, I get 6 components back from epic traps I crafted (takes 9 to make) but none for recovered traps (average). On both there is a roll and for the recovered ones, it just disappears. I hope this helps.

Hmmm ok.... indeed thsoe are very low DCs....

I guess its biowares fault that you cannot use it on the item in a box (thats not my fault atleast).

I've updated the DC to be the craft dc of the trap type + 10.

If you succeed you will get 3/4th of the components. If you fail it will either blow up in your inventory, or you will get ½ the components.
