Gas traps won't even activate while enemies are practically DANCING ON TOP OF THEM?
Lemme guess, Respawn, too busy buffing Gibby again? Gonna give his tactical dome proximity gas? Make his gun shield void phase incoming damage? Throwing @#$%&* gun turrets on his ultimate bombs and Caustic can't even have his traps work properly?! Why even bother...?
Last time this happened to me was in season 3 or 4, but from what I remember that got fixed by the next patch. Had no issues lately, even killed a bunch of enemies with some barrels left way behind.
There was a youtube video on how to properly place gas cans, in which the creator warned about placing them incorrectly near doors. There's a high chance they won't get activated if there's an opened door between the gas can and the enemy.
Most notably, at Estates i placed one AWAY from a door and in the middle of the side wall to a room right next to an Octane, nothing happened.
I placed a canister next to next to the respawn beacon in the middle of Sorting Factory. The Pathfinder walked right next to it and danced all around it in tight close quarters of the freight containers
I placed gas at the phase runner gateways and off to the sides. Even when landed on top of by MULTIPLE SQUADS and walked into, they didn't engage and were detonated by a grenade
I guess Horizon and Gibby are getting all the love this season
@CaptWrekAlyfeAs a person who plays caustic every day for at least a couple hours I have yet to see this. One mistake people make is placement by double doors. if someone opens the doors in the door blocks the trap and the trap will not go off.
Video evidence is also useful for the devs.
I've placed gas on the sides of double doors to no effect but have foolishly fallen prey to the same tactic. Guess it's my traps not working since I haven't thrown money at the game for skins or coins.
RNG my ASSETS...
