When to use it
Third option for a full damage-over-time build, but the trap is the weaker use: shooting the target directly gets the same effect immediately.
What the balance passes changed
- 2026-09-15 · CutCooldown slightly increased. The clearest single nerf in the pass.
- 2026-08-28 · BuffedDamage increased — the first Blackarrow buff in any pass since launch.
