Black arrow VS Explosive trap

[mööh]

From what i have heard you are supposed to use explosive trap over black arrow but when i tested (at 85) black arrow did more damage so have i done something wrong or is it supposed to be that way?

They recently buffed Black Arrow so that people would stop using Explosive Trap.

Once I'm done with finals I'm going to sit down and update those guides for 85, since they're only correct for 80 right now.

Did you mean to say that they buffed Black Arrow so that SV hunters would stop using Explosive Trap on single targets?

Yes. Yes I did.

I should have my coffee before I post.

i read that too and started to do that but i am a retard and wasted time in the placement when i could be shooting something. a macro prob would have helped but i am also lazy and didnt want to do the research. i dont think the difference was all that great either.

The damage is actually pretty minimal on both, and on packs of 2+ mobs you should still use Explosive Trap for both increased damage output and higher LnL proc.
