Hunter trapped in own trap!

[Musse]

I was in Gnomegeran where the Iron Dwarfs are, and laid a Freezing Trap and did not move (ie. trap was right at my spot). I started hitting a group in front of me, and sure enough one run into the trap, which sprung. But I was also trapped in it! All the correct messages told me I could not do this and that because was frozen!

As far as I know there is no mob there that does anything such, and I have neither ever been frozen there in Gnomegeran. This was also first time ever I was trapped in my own trap. Anywhere. Was this a very rare bug, or am I missing something here ...?

P.S. I was trapped for the same duration of time the trapped Iron Dwarf was, so preeeetttttyyy sure I was in my own trap and nothing else.

Was there Arcane Nullifier bot nearby when that happened?

[Musse]

Yes ... what does it do?

[Sinrek]

This mob can revert (Nullifier for a reason) all magic directed at him. So when you lay your trap near this mob, it triggers it and then nullifies it so you catch your own magic back. Working as intended.

The nullifier was not very near: there was one nullifier and 4 dwarfs (maybe one mechanical thingy too). I laid trap by me, sent pet on Nullifier (it was at approx 30 meters and stay there hitting pet), I fired at one dwarf, dwarf can at me, sprung trap, and both me and dwarf was trapped.

Btw, isn't the trap ment to trap ONE mob - or in this case player then?

Ok, as intended ... approx ... then ... but very rude of the Nullifier then. Maybe a TV-series is needed "Mobs Behaving Badly".

I'd persuade you to test it again with this info in mind and perhaps get some addon for more information on what and who casts in combat. Eavesdrop comes to mind first.
