I recently started getting demolishers in quite the amount at our day 56 horde and oh boy did they break our horde base to bits! Now am looking for effective ways to deal with them. This video definitely helped me to learn about the dart trap, thx! Also, I saw another video that, from A20, demos can be damaged without triggering them by turrets!

[@SavensWorld]

Traps can be a great way to handle Demos! You are correct about Turrets as well! I did an update video about them here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKLXhnmZdt12edE

@@SavensWorld yeap, I saw your video, thx man!

[@drtruth4282]

Well done, Saven! I appreciate the time you put into prepping for this video [testing ground with visual distance aids, etc.]. Your focus was the viewer and that is EXACTLY where your focus should be, when making informational/educational videos. Thank you, my friend.

[@SavensWorld]

You are quite welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@Hawklyn1742]

For some reason in my head, I had dart traps figured as mostly pvp. Have to add them into the mix. Thanks Savin.

[@SavensWorld]

Dart Traps are awesome! If used properly, they can be extremely effective!

[@TheGamingTV]

Thanks for this , I’ve been playing 7 days to die on console for a long time , recently switch over to a PC setup and I’m still learning the ropes with alpha 19. I’m 2 days from my day 21 horde and I need to get some traps going😂

[@SavensWorld]

You're welcome! I'm a console transplant myself. I know how difficult it can be to make the transition to the PC version. I'm glad my videos have helped make that transition a bit easier for you!

[@GunChronicles]

Cool video. Good one Saven. Personally I use the blade traps in pairs. I place them stacked on top of each other with the blades on the top trap facing down. Since the blades are rotating in opposite directions it seems to slow the zombies down slightly more and kind of traps them in the blades a little longer. A little side note on the electric fence posts. The farthest distance you can space them apart is 15 blocks. That's counting the blocks that the posts are sitting on with 13 blocks of space between them. They also need to be within line of sight to space them that far otherwise the electric line won't allow you to stretch it that far. Without line of sight I think 9 blocks of space is the max distance you can go.

[@SavensWorld]

Correct. Wires can only stretch for ten blocks, but you can reach an additional 5 blocks to connect a wire.

[@rhettbr2004]

thanks for the video. I was just wondering how the electric fence works and now I know.

[@SavensWorld]

Electric fences can be a lot of fun and extremely useful!

Hey man just wanted to say, this is slowly becoming one of my favorite games and you have been so helpful, thanks for everything

[@SavensWorld]

You are quite welcome! I'm glad my videos have been helpful!

[@jamesruddle2768]

Love the videos brother

[@SavensWorld]

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoy them!

[@percivalknight4057]

For the blade traps, if you place them a block higher they will decapitate zombies and kill them instantly (sans radiated zombies)

[@SavensWorld]

Excellent tip!

[@chrishubbard64]

Can you place them on the ceiling facing down in a corridor to do this? On further thought, not sure if thats the best plan as then the dogs and crawlers would go under them, right? Maybe alternate a bit and put one setup for head shots at the start to quickly mow down the regular zombies, then a couple on the ground to clear out the crawlers and such.

[@ttwatt3027]

Thank you for your tutorials, they are very helpful especially for a this noob lol new subscriber!

[@SavensWorld]

Thank you for watching! I'm glad you found the videos helpful!

[@matthewmohri9990]

Saven my friend makes blocks and puts blade traps on top of them and close together. Hence getting head shots on Zombies. Ever tried that?

[@SavensWorld]

I have indeed. Great way to use blade traps.

Hows this man not have a 100k subs? High quality videos simple to the point good voice and entertaining makes no sense why he doesnt have hella subs

I appreciate your support! Slowly but surely, we'll get there! Tell your friends ;)

[@RichardRitenour0522]

Much appreciated Saven ;)

[@SavensWorld]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@ernestcote3398]

Can one make the horde come from one direction? I haven't used god mode so getting that amount of resources takes time and usually end up hodgepodge, yet I'm visualizing a three frame thick back end and an open field for the killing zone. Start with electric traps to freeze until there are sufficient zombies to use explosives. Have iron spikes next and try to strip any legs, then enter a raised one frame killing corridor with the dart trap at the shooting end. Sounds like I could drink beer all horde night long. Caveat; I've never played a campaign beyond 43 days so there could be things I don't know about.

Great vids man, you got my sub. thanks for the great work.

[@SavensWorld]

You are quite welcome! Thank you for your support!

[@TruSpectrez]

If zombies are killed by your traps, do you get XP? I seem to remember not getting XP from spike traps.

[@SavensWorld]

With points in Advanced Engineering, you will get xp from electric trap kills. This doesn't work with spikes, however. You don't get xp from spike trap kills.

[@JustanOlGuy]

This somewhat makes up for my Craptacular Weekend!

[@SavensWorld]

Sorry you had a crappy weekend. Glad I was able to brighten up your day a bit.

[@Krisisisis]

Do these traps do extra headshot damage?

[@SavensWorld]

I believe that head shots deal extra damage no matter what.

[@Ben-km5ly]

how do you pick up blade traps

[@SavensWorld]

You need to have a land claim block down covering the area where you initially placed the trap.

[@keithwoodbury9193]

Hey I'm playing on console and I don't have any of these skill sets available :( is this only for PC or something?

[@SavensWorld]

Yes. The vast majority of tutorials on my channel are for the PC version. It is vastly different to the console version.

[@keithwoodbury9193]

@@SavensWorld ok well I enjoyed the video either way appreciate the guide and reply

[@robertgrove1271]

your videos are amazing. I watch them instead of playing the game haha....

[@SavensWorld]

Haha nice! Well I hope you occasionally jump in the game to put the tutorials into practice 😉

[@deadsound4350]

😲 I already made my base it a square so i can dig down pretty deep and half way there to the bottom I can put those so when zombies fall they get electricuted also throw a monotov so when they pass the wires they burn 😈

[@SavensWorld]

Very nice!
