Sandstone Trap

Sandstone trap is a trap item found in the Desert Caves. It can be wired with wiring tools and items, making it useful as a placed defensive hazard rather than a simple one-time device.

When activated, it fires two bursts of flame that travel up to 8 tiles and inflict the On fire debuff. The second burst appears 10 ticks, or 0.5 seconds, after the first, which makes the trap dangerous even if the initial hit is avoided or mitigated. After firing, it has a cooldown of 20 ticks, or 1 second, before it can activate again.

Because of its short cooldown and two-shot behavior, it works well in narrow chokepoints, corridors, and dungeon entrances where enemies are forced to cross its line of fire. Wiring it into an automated defense system lets it contribute steady area denial against groups and slow-moving targets, especially in enclosed spaces where the flames can repeatedly catch enemies passing through.
