Derro mines pit trap

In the Derro mines, this is a pit trap that drops you into a square chamber in Fungal Maze.
There is no way out. I wandered around in Detect Mode for 50+ minutes. Eventually 2 others were down there with me who were roguish types with decent spot/search.
Couldn't find anything either in 20+ minutes.

There is a check involved, but the DCs are pretty low. In fact, there is a range of DCs. There has only been 1 other report of difficulty, and that turned out to not be because of the area.
I am not sure what you mean by "decent spot/search". That is a subjective term that i can not put a number on.
The dungeon was recently updated by another dev. I don't know if that area was touched. I will investigate.
Please let us know if the problem persists for other PCs.
Also, the pit trap is completely avoidable.

I was one of the other characters down there. Presuming the DCs don't scale with level, I should have found the exit trapdoors - I found them 5 levels earlier (3 of them in fact) with no problem at all.
I fell in the pit due to rubber-banding because of the dreaded lag beast.

That is helpful. Thank you! I'll poke one of the area devs to check the triggers.

Ive also found myself in that room, was there for almost an hour walking about searching before a DM was forced to pull me out.
