Acid Arrow Launcher (4e Trap)

From D&D Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

A magical object taking up one square, such as a pillar with a mounted green orb, which fires a shimmering arrow of green, glowing liquid that streaks to its target and bursts in a spray of sizzling acid that strikes any creatures next to the target. Once the pillar is destroyed the orb will fall and crack, harmlessly shattering into worthless glass. The Trap attacks any that come within its range (20 squares) unless it has been enchanted to not attack them.

The acid arrow launcher can be identified with a DC 15 Arcana check.

This could be used in an encounter by positioning it at the periphery of a fight with acid-resistant monsters. Also place obstructions such as pillars to encourage tactical positioning, particularly if it draws the party into a room.
