Starting at 1st level, a ranger has the ability to set traps. To use this ability requires that the ranger acquire a [[Adventuring Gear#Trap, Hunter's|Hunter's Trap]] for each trap he wishes to set. A Hunter's Trap weighs 10 pounds and costs 2 gold, and is not consumed when the trapper ability is used. For a ranger to set a trap in a square takes a full round action.

To use this ability requires that the ranger acquire a [[Adventuring Gear#Trap, Hunter's|Hunter's Trap]] for each trap he wishes to set. A Hunter's Trap weighs 10 pounds and costs 2 gold, and is not consumed when the trapper ability is used. For a ranger to set a trap in a square during combat takes a full round action. A Hunter's Trap is not required to be in-hand to use, the full round action assumes getting it out of storage. If a Ranger has a Hunter's Trap in-hand, they may set it in a square as a move action. Ranger traps are not small, and cannot be applied to items, doors, locks or other objects. In general, they require a full five foot square of space, and only one may be set per square. They cannot be placed in Blocked, Impeded, or Occupied terrain, although they may be placed in Difficult terrain. To see a Ranger trap once it is set requires greater than animal intelligence and a Perception check against a DC of half Ranger level+10. Anyone can disarm a ranger trap with a Dex roll versus a DC of half Ranger level +10. If a character has Disable Device they may roll that with a bonus of +5 on the roll due to the size and comparative crudity of a ranger trap. | ||
If a creature enters a space containing a ranger trap, the trap rolls to hit them. The trap has the same BAB as the ranger that set the trap, minus any to-hit bonuses afforded by the ranger's weapon enhancement bonus. Hit or miss, the trap is neutralized after rolling to hit, and the focus can be recovered from the square. If the trap hits, it does 1d4 of physical damage and [[Immobilized|immobilizes]] the target. Since ranger traps do not inflict weapon damage they cannot make critical attacks, although a natural roll of a 20 always hits. To free yourself from the [[Immobilized]] condition takes greater than animal intelligence and a full round action, or you may roll an Escape Artist check against a DC of ranger level +10 to free yourself as a move action | If a creature enters a space containing a ranger trap, the trap rolls to hit them.
