Lab traps make no sense

Im wondering why u can tank them throught high shield regen or health regen, while u cant dodge it or avoid it as evasion character.

Because most of them don't actually "hit". They are DoT effects.

ok, but spikes are clearly hit, and those poison arrows too. I thinkg they just rushed the content without much thinking. Like they always do. And then moved on , who cares.

I guess you haven't done uber lab, where there ARE traps that are able to be destroyed...

You mean the ones that magically reappear in 5 secs?

Another design that shows no logic

Why would you still be near them 5 second after you kill them...

The trap cycles don't take that long.

Fire pits, spikes on sawblades etc.

I really like how they claimed traps cannot be on traps. Now they are stacking

They should also implement traps everywhere if they are trying to deliver a slower pace via trap gameplay

I think even ggg's impenetrable brows aren't so impenetrable so they would really be considering it after lab backlash.
edit: although, Pier...

No, I agree with this. When I think of evasion in POE, I think of it more of a magical effect then a physical one. I mean your belt can give you more. Why shouldn't high evasion allow you to impossibly slide through a trap that would hit anyone else.

Evasion is, frankly, broken. I mean you even have "cannot evade attacks" keystones and mods yet nothing really like that with ES or Armor (maybe chaos bypassing ES but chaos can be easy to mitigate).
