The Plant Species Y Trap is an item in the Scorched Earth-DLC of ARK: Survival Evolved.

It can be obtained by growing Plant Species Y. Once fully grown, the plant will produces Plant Species Y Traps.

Usage

The trap works similar to a Bear Trap, tangling players and small to medium-sized creatures that step on them. When a creature gets trapped, durability depletes at a rate of ~3 units per second. A total durability of 100 means it immobilizes the targets for a shorter period of time than the Bear Trap does. However, it is almost completely invisible when placed on the ground, which means it can't be spotted as easy as the Bear Trap.

Notes

• Plant Species Y Traps have a spoil timer.

• Some dinos that normally get trapped by this, can occasionally decide to attack the hidden plant, killing it, in the ground, before they get trapped.
