Noose Trap

The Noose trap is an advanced trap that was added in update v0.01 of The Forest.

Gameplay
The Noose Trap is a trap that catches cannibals by their feet and hangs them upside down. This trap is the only one that is guaranteed to catch a cannibal that trips it, but it also leaves the cannibal alive. While animals can trip this trap, they are not caught by it.

A caught cannibal will swing his weapon/arms in front of them and their damage is exactly the same as if they were fighting normally. If approached from the rear, the cannibal cannot strike you.

If a Leader Mutant with a lamp is captured in this trap and killed it can be used as a light source.

Once fired, the trap can be reset with 1 stick.

As of v0.68, resetting traps now requires to hold the “Take” action for 3 seconds.
