Revision as of 10:37, 25 October 2011

Traps Skin is an item that changes the appearance of the weapon to which they are applied on. There are two types of skins, namely Removable skins and Blueprint skins. Both types of skins do not affect trap statistics when applied.

Removable Skins

Removable skins do not require any crafting or changing of traps, letting the hunter easily express his/her unique style without the need to purchase several expensive traps. [1] When a compatible trap is armed, the "Change Trap Skin" button above the trap selector will turn from grey to orange. A popup will appear upon clicking the orange button, allowing hunters to toggle between the original and skinned version(s). These skins are located in the hunter's Inventory as a sub-tab within the Traps page.

The following is a table of the available Removable Skins which can bought at the marketplace or obtained via donating at any time.
