If a Tripwire line is crossed while the trap is not disarmed, the trap triggers, basically causing {{DamageText|2d6|Fire}} damage. However, most often the Tripwire is set together with some other traps planted nearby, and tearing it causes a chain reaction of further triggering of other devices.

A Trip wire trap can be disarmed with the help of {{Skill|Sleight of Hand}} skill, but the character must have a {{SmRarityItem|Trap Disarm Toolkit}} in their inventory. Minimal requirement is a {{Ability check|Sleight of Hand|10}} roll, but the [[Difficulty Class]] may vary depending on circumstances.

After disarming, the Tripwire trap will be pictured as inactive parts of previously tugged cord. As it basically causes Fire damage via Explosion, it won't make any further damage once it is disarmed or has been triggered.
