I think a hold portal trap would not suck


Advice


People have said traps suck multiple times but I figured out a way they do not suck. MAke a strong door with a break dc of 23 and then put a hold portal trap behind the door so it slams shut with the rest of teh party on the other side and have monsters attack at the same time.

Is this overpowered?

Generally, most combinations of traps + creatures make for decent encounters.

Imagine having 3 or 4 crossbow traps in a hallway with a pair of kobolds in cover shooting shortbows at you. Most PCs are going to charge through the traps. Without the kobolds, the traps are really easy to deal with.
