Supernatural traps

So it's awesome when you gather like 8 of those Hellenous things to blast them, being Injured already to trigger %$"£%^£$^!!!!!! supernatural trap taht grants 95% Arcane failure
Restor doesn't help. Greater restor doesn't help. Rest doesn't help. Relog doesn't help.

Please, do something about it, it's f-ing frustrating.
(optimally, remove it.)

Edit:
Reloggin' AND resting works.
Imagine my frustration after I triggered the same kind of trap for second time in upcoming 10 minutes.....
Also, it the effect disappears after 20 minutes or so...but still this kind of effect is really a killer for casters

That standard answer here is something along the lines of, "teamwork, yo!"

But I hate the random traps too.

I kinda love the idea of random traps, keeps you on your toes. (Or missing a couple of them, plus livers and spleens.)

My standard response would be: "Invest in Search, yo!"

Arn't some of them helpful?

They provide a bonus, can't think of specific ones at the moment!

they should also catch ghosts!

They aren't actually traps, though. Just randomly applied effects.

yeah, you can't see them, they just randomly hit you. you either go "w00t" or "sh*t"

some make you "extra durable"= some kinky DR
some grants you some kind of a SR
some decrease your ability stats...

but A R C A N E spell failure for a C L E R I C ?!?! That's just screwed up.

Yeah I remember this one from condors - only duration fixed it IIRC. Kinda bad luck, and silly that GR doesn't cure it.

Oh.. not real traps? Oh, hence the topic, "supernatural" lol. *smacks head* well, erm.. maybe alter the effects a little? Some traps could be a dispel or maybe something specific to the environment, like a falling tree (physical damage, heaps of it) or ceiling debris or geysers erupting from underground steam vents? Stimuli for neurons.
