With the Trap skill gone, how does Ashenzari`s trap detection work? Is it XL/3+Ash Bonus? If so how big is his bonus? If I am not mistaken Ash is the only option if you want to increase your Trap detection. --BlueCrake (talk) 19:27, 17 May 2014 (CEST)

The answer is fairly complicated. The Ash bonus is added straight to the effective 'skillfulness' (confusingly called 'skill' in that bit of code) at detecting traps, which is found by a moderately complex function of the effective Traps skill. It's a pretty large bonus - at full piety, it's making that 'skillfulness' number over twice as large as it would otherwise be, even at XL27. Basically you aren't going to be missing that many traps with Ashenzari. -Ion frigate (talk) 12:23, 18 May 2014 (CEST)
