A Dart Trap is a block that takes on the appearance of a skull. It fires a dart which inflicts the Poisoned debuff. When found naturally, the dart trap will be fired using a Pressure Plate. After being removed, by using any pickaxe or drill, they may be wired to any other switch or mechanism. The Dart Trap will fire at a maximum of 1 dart every 3 seconds and only up to 2,700 feet. It can shoot through one block, if the block is adjacent to the Dart Trap.

When placing Dart Traps, they will fire in the direction your character is facing, much like how doors operate. You can make a monster trap by wiring the dart trap to a timer or other sensory mechanism (such as a pressure plate or switch).

NotesEdit

• There seems to always be a dart trap paired with a pressure plate in the entrance to the dungeon which causes problems for early players who want to face skeletron and inadvertently kill themselves by steping on the plate mid-battle.
