Strategy

With

Aim well: if it lands directly on your target, it can do 4 times as much damage as if it is only detonated nearby. Very useful against smaller enemies and enemies with low health, such as the Imp.

Against

If the Acorn misses you, run so the Sap Trap doesn't affect you. If you see a Sap Trap stuck on an ally, destroy it for XP.

Trivia

• Sap Trap is the only ability that Acorn retains when riding atop an Oak.
