Bait the Trap is a rune effect in Caltrops, a Discipline-spending Demon Hunter skill.

This rune effect retains the slowing effect of the base skill, while also providing a +10% critical hit chance buff to the Demon Hunter if she stands in the area of the effect. High level Demon Hunters generally have around 20% critical hit chance, so a 10% improvement is considerable, although critical hit damage is only around 100%, for a single hit.

Gaining the bonus is trickier than it sounds, since the Caltrops does not activate until a monster is in the area, and the radius is not very large. So anyone benefiting from this buff would be standing very near at least one monster. As none of the Caltrops rune effects add to the duration of the trap, this buff would never last longer than 6 seconds per trap,
