Synthesis target ignores traps

[Eudas]

When tracking a synthesis target, if you find them and trap them, but do not complete the full scan of all nodes before the first trap expires, you will need to deploy a second trap to hold them.

However, on the second and subsequent traps, it appears that the target hesitates a moment, and then ignores the trap, continuing to move instead of floating and being held as expected.

Is this a deliberate change, or a potential bug?

Experiencing the same issue, only for me the first trap doesn't even work most of the time. Out of the 10 targets I scanned, only one trap worked when the synthesis target was alone in a separate room.

I have this problem too. Only the first trap work and the target will ignore all the rest.

 

Sometimes they even create twins after a few scan attempting

I had something like this happen as well. Then it seemed to pop across the room to someone else's trap.

That is actual intentional, they create a decoy for you, just one of the abilitys they can have, like going in the rift or creating magnetic patches.

But yes all traps after the second fail, even knockdown they seem to get immune to now after the frist trap, sine melee ground smash not works aswell on them anymore, best i can suggest as workaround for now is use Frames like Khora with Ensnare, or Ivara and Equinox, sleeping them. Tho some CC also seem to fail at times i noticed.

Same issue, it's almost impossible to do a synthesis mission now unless I have a stun capable frame.

Sometimes the first trap only lasts a couple of seconds and I don't have time to fully scan all of them, and the next traps just don't work, enemies free from it in 1 second or less, this is happening on PS4 aswell.

Same here.  In fact, the problem has gotten worse.  It used to be I had to use roughly 3 traps when all of them worked.  Then, at a later date, only the first trap worked, and now sometimes even the first trap fails along with all additional traps.  If this is intentional, the traps are useless.

Seems to be a bug I hope. I get frustrated when using multible traps and they just don't work on them. These targets I have experienced don't use any decoys. Also a bit frustrated trying to get the last scan while being transformed to a swiss cheese.

Yup, same issue here on PC!
