Maximum Targets

I heard a rumour that although the tooltip for skill 2: Fire Corrosive Shot says 50 targets, the maximum targets of ANY skill in the entire game is really 20. 79.74.255.32 01:56, 23 December 2018 (UTC)

Proposal

Proposal of a 'treb' redirect. Redshift 00:56, 19 August 2011 (UTC)

I don't see why, care to explain? If it's simply a nickname, I've never heard anyone use it before. - 01:48, 19 August 2011 (UTC)

It's everywhere in the blog posts [1] [2]. Chriskang 07:02, 19 August 2011 (UTC)

Thank you. I personally hadn't heard it used, either, but that's to be given as PvP wasn't brought out for show until recently. The in-house shorthand seemed to be rather prominent, though, so I wondered if it was worth a redirect even though it hadn't necessarily conveyed over into the player base.

Random place

I have yet to EVER see any plans anywhere. Can somebody screenshot them so I at least know what to look for? Previously Unsigned 06:14, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

Shoot cows!?!?!?

It is, in fact, a thing that was done with trebuchets in real life. 24.190.19.254 03:46, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

I've heard of diseased corpses, but it'll be a cool trivia note to add if we can find a good source for the info. --Xu Davella 00:20, 13 September 2012 (UTC)

Health of a Trebuchet

Anyone got any information on the health of a Trebuchet and also the health of a Master one? -- TigerWolf 01:50, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

I've been doing some WvW research, and have the Trebuchet health down too. I've listed it in the notes for the article with reference to my research so whoever wants to know where the numbers come from can check it. Fargone 11:00, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

Trebuchet Range

The trebuchet range is verified as 10,000 units as per the trebuchet blueprints. Can anyone confirm the range of 10,000 on the Battle of Kyhlo map? The testing trebs in the sPvP lobby are 10,000 but I'm not sure if that can count as verification for the actual map. Smackban 10:00, 19 September 2012 (UTC)

Trebuchet Weapon Type

The (internal) weapon type of a trebuchet seems to be "Staff", which sounds weird but still seems kinda appropriate. Just got the "Staff master" achievement when killing someone with a trebuchet at super-long range ;-)

The above is a bit inaccurate. Trebuchet actually behaves as a "bundle". All bundles behave as the weapon you are holding, so you were probably holding a staff, and any kill made by the treb(or any bundle) while holding a weapon(staff in your case) will count as a kill made by that specific weapon(your staff) --Natsos (talk) 16:46, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

Anyone knows how long they despawn?

It seems that idle trebs are likely to vanish. Anyone know the time they despawn? --110.174.164.26 12:31, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

All seige have a 1-hour despawn time if nobody interacts with them. The only exception are flame rams which only have a 15-minute despawn timer. --Thervold (talk) 18:20, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
