Hey all,
Was wondering if anyone knew the duration of knowdown associated with Spike Trap?
Is it minimal or a decent length of time?

Seems like the normal 1 sec kd.

Barbed trap does cripple and bleeding. Spike Trap (the elite) does cripple and knockdown.

I might as well tell you my idea as to why Spike Trap interests me.
If it has a decent knockdown it might be worthwhile with Aftershock.
This would be handy to have near a monk that is getting ganked by multiple warriors.
Close proximity, knockdown and blasted...
If anyone has tried this or is willing to try it, let me know how it turns out.
I have a lvl 12 character and play maybe once a month, so my ability to try it is limited.

Thanks,

Mind

For pure trapping mode, I bring Hunter's, Barbed trap, Dust Trap, Spike Trap, Serps Quickness, (if no one has spirits..) QZ, EW and rebirth. If QZ or EW is covered by someone else, add trolls or throw dust.

With SQ, QZ and EW all chugging, plus a secondary staff or wand/offhand combo for energy boost, you can spam out 12 to 15 traps before the first one pops.

I appreciate all the input thus far on my post.
My question hasn't been answered as I had intended however.
I'm looking for a specific length of time that Spike Trap keeps opponents on the ground, with the intention of throwing an Aftershock into the mix potentially catching mutiple enemies at one time(bunched groups etc).

If you have any experience with Spike Trap please post.
I'm not looking for any trap build ideas, just some info on Spike Trap itself.
Again, I appreciate all the previous posters input.

It's a normal 1s KD and yes you can fit an aftershock into it.
