Get 3 dragonhunters with full berserk gear, drop all their traps including maw along the route to the usual gate the tapper heads to.

You’ll get a dead keep tapper.

Most people that tap keeps for prolonged periods of time just tap a guard on the wall as it contests the keep either way. They also change location every other tap.

I mean it’s funny when people instapop due to traps but yeah this doesn’t usually work against people invested in keep tagging. Also a good idea is to have a trapper condi ranger and 2 DH, that way if they get an auto immune to physical damage they still die.

Actually, the mentality of most keep tappers is to aim for the front entrance because they like the attention that it draws.
They like enemies to notice them and then proceed to troll them with their escapes and frustrate them.

Laying traps along a narrow path like a bridge or a narrow entrace leading to the keep’s gate is a good way to end the tapper.

Who stands/keeps walking through traps these days though?

Unless they’re FOB new to the game/thief in general I find it hard to believe any thief wouldn’t be dodging ahead most of the time (SoA, Hard to Catch + all the other endurance refill & get out of jail free card Instant Reflexes etc skills, shadowsteps.. SB 5) or move a little to the left of the pathway so as not to trigger them.

I plant a barrage on archers at wallcorners, there outplayed your trap mechanic.

Must be a US thing to roll up to the front door raising a ruckus as most EU just tags as stealthily as possible. We all know it infuriates the other team and the “laughs” come when you get 20 people constantly on look out for where you will hit next….

…then you build a balli and hit the wall at some obscure location.
