It's old but gold. If it could help you out we've probably chucked it in here.

Trap Ideas

Post by tanisjihanis » 09 Sep 2011, 13:43

While checking out some MC videos on youtube, I ran across some pretty ingenius PvP traps. I was wondering if anyone had some good ideas concerning this subject.

What ever happened to the good ol' days where people just stabbed each other to death? Those where simpler times, when you didn't need a Master's degree in Redstone Engineering to murder someone.

Simple in comparison to what? I would consider a trap utilizing sticky pistons, tnt, obsidian, redstone and water to be simple, while other people consider hidden pits of doom to be traps.

Now your just getting complicated with details about what simple is... and that means your not being simple at all. =p

I've had a couple ideas for some absolutely EVIL traps that kill the player, then when he comes to get his stuff, kills him again then destroys the stuff. I'm not going to spoil the details though.

I have a basic idea for a trap make a deep hole fill it with water. Then put a torch in a hole at the bottom, so they will think there is something down there. After that place a sign at the side of the hole that says something like Diamond multiplier, or free diamonds. Finally wait for someone to go down it then run to patch the top of the hole with a block. It would work the best in a cuboid so they can't break out.

Nope. Just use obsidian to build it. :D

With the way water slows down digging, and how long obsidian takes to mine, they'll suffocate before they can did through two obby to break out.

Maybe have a chest of diamonds in a small shack, but when the step on the pressure plate in front of it, lava pours down from above.

so basically

WARNING: Plenty of swearing though these guys at Roosterteeth make the best videos.

Also because they knew this one guy loves keeping things nice and neat they put lava in his ceiling and one wood block sticking out holding it in so the guy removed it and his house filled with lava. Too bad lava drips through blocks now so it's not quite as feasible.

Could make a really basic trap where you fall in a hole and need to throw stuff on some pressure plates to get out

  • Tell people to go to PvP
  • Slay them
  • ?????

1. vanish
2. /tp <playerinpvp>
3. /up 50
4. /bring <playerinpvp>
5. look at ground, /jumpto
6. collect delicious dropped items
7. repeat

And this is why mods are not allowed in PVP.

* Daemon is eggy's slave. ;3
<SurvivalBot> [m] robipodsupreme: gently strokes the Tj
<derigin> A little too huge, IMO.
<SurvivalBot> [m] neonraven: just put it in there
<Haxx> You can try and work penis into it if you want
<SurvivalBot> [g] Invunarble: jesus that is big
<Sti|work> Mine is a little over 200m long, I doubt I could get it to work on my planet

You think too small. Substitute "<playerinpvp>" for "/tp mass". You now have ALL the loots (and a lot of angry players)

Do that except with water, and then place a layer of ice on top. After enough people have died, change it all to snow. Win.
