"I HOPE YOU STEP ON A LEGO" [sic] is the title of a series of Monster Hunter mods, one that's recently been ported to Monster Hunter Wilds. The plan is simple: take the model for the Shock Trap, and turn it into a golden version of the classic 2x2 Lego brick.
The mods's creator, Kimchiworm, has made these mods available on Nexus Mods, freely available to any sufficiently cruel players of the PC versions of Monster Hunter World, Rise, and now: Wilds. It's an effort with real legacy behind it, with the mod for World releasing 5 years ago - but sometimes, you just gotta do it, you know?
It's a small change, but this new context for the shock trap has a big impact. Now, instead of electricity paralyzing the monster oh so boringly, the monster twitches and writhes in agony, stunned by the accursed affliction they unwittingly wandered into. How fun!
Just think - all that effort spent on developing caltrops for military use throughout history, and they all get outshone by an especially playful Danish toy company.
And fear not: the Monster Hunter Wilds version of the mod has been tagged "fair and balanced" -...
