Are they useful now? Was it clarified how they're intended to work?
Well they baked Powerful Snares into the Snarecrafter dedication instead of it being a lvl 10 feat, which is a huge buff. Other than that from the snippets I saw the feats remain the same, but I dont have the book so Incant confirm 100%.
Anything in particular that you are asking about?
From what I know of it, snares were useful previously. It just required table rulings on some things like if you can recover your snares, or what exactly is being purchased/crafted as a snare kit.
Or something like that. It has been a while since I delved into the snare rules and the ambiguities around them.
Sorry for the redundancy with this thread post. My first attempt at making this thread disappeared for some reason, then popped up again after making that one.
Got my copy of Player Core 2 now. :D
It looks like Snare Genius' quick deployment applies to all your snares now, not just the bonus daily snares. That's quite the buff.
But set up still make them weaker then normal. That's an issue I see with them.

Can you please elaborate? I'm not sure what you mean.

I'm guessing he's thinking of the Surprise Snare feat, which lets you spend 3 actions to just place one of your quick snares in an opponent's square and trigger it - at the cost of the DC being 2 lower.
The problem with that feat is that it doesn't list a range. For org play I was able to be at a table with Tonya as GM and she made a ruling of 30', but that's not a very official fix.

Anything but reach is clearly madness.
