So I was halced up but didn't actually have a halc active at the time (it was just the trap set). Then I did this: 1 hour, 8 mins ago
Your attack on ******* sets off a Krionus Virus Trap, surrounding your ship with its effects!

So I thought 'Damn! Gonna have to be careful now'

Then this happened: 44 mins ago From: ******
******* attacked you and set off your Halcyon Trap!

So what's the deal with this?

It's only removed if you disable, raid, hack, invade, or use offensive artifacts/abilities, NOT if you attack someone or something.

as posted only counts if you disable raid or hack or invade a planet or use an offensive action. it is fun though you start a pvp run hit a ship snap there k trap and then they counter attack to try and sneak in a quick kill with out you noticing it and they snap your halc trap had it done at a lower rank was weird but funny

These are what game considers as ofensive actions

Ok, thanks for clearing it up. Maybe the Wiki should be updated a little to be more specific?

Not trying to be an ass, but exactly how would you suggest this should be more specific?

That list has been up there in one shape or another since at least 2012.

If you look at the history, Senatorhung changed the wording and removed a reference to "attacking". It used to say:



The "Limitations" was changed to "Offensive Actions" and "Attacking" was removed.

Has it been clarified enough though? Don't you lose the halc if you use an artifact against an enemy planet, too?

Yes you do, you can even void the Calming Amp by doing that...seems like the Alternate Use has been added too...nice touch
