Leghold Traps are the most common type of traps used by The Warden's enemies. They can be made of wood or steel and have an appearance similar to the Small Claw Traps. However, they are considerably weaker, only dealing 20 physical damage at activation, if they deal any damage at all. Often, they just pin a party member to the spot, preventing them from moving or doing anything beyond trying to free their leg. Depending on the location, Leghold Traps may take between 0 and all 4 levels of the Deft Hands tree to disarm.
