    Let's say something were to happen to Yosh, isn't he the only trap setter in the game? Because Nali and Iomen are dual, and they switched from thief before any significant trap skills. So any other way to have an NPC trapper?

    I have enjoyed going the magic route, but was wondering about other ways...

    Yeah, I noticed this too! The dual classed Thieves are 'weak'! Extremely low leveled when they abandoned thier original class. But they can set standard traps, which are nice. But they can't set *special snares*.

    I've only found Yoshima who could set the standard and *special* traps. Nevertheless it's important to pump some skill points into this ability. Also there are some magical items that help this ability. A ring was the best that i've found. It added 20% bonus to this snare ability. And *special* snares even effect creatures that need magical weapons to attack them!

    The reason that you noticed dual-classed thieves is because only bounty hunters get special snares. So it's not just dual classed thieves that cannot set specials.
