Thanks for the quick reply. My primary concern was why, for example in your bear trap case, not just use the agility save. Or is it possible to combine these rolls (i.e. I roll for agility and if I fail, I can still test my luck)?

youre walking down a hallway. you tell the gm youre on the lookout for anything weird. they say theres a giant bear trap in the middle. they have you test your dex to leap over it.

youre walking down the hallway. you hear a click and look down just in time to see a giant bear trap slamming shut. test your luck to see if you can avoid any damage

Okay, I understand what you mean. So it's just a different mechanic to "3 out of 6 that the trap shut" - a bit tougher for me, because the chances for the player will usually be less than 50% and even lower during the game...

yep that's why they should be careful when dungeoneering
