So I was thinking why we do not have curse, sleep and stun fields. I mean the training hall has 4 fields of types like Shock, fire, poison and freeze. We should put a stunning field, curse and sleep field. So the sleep field would have Z's, stun would be orange/yellow smoke and curse should be purple fog. Even though we are dealing with 4 types only, I want to add 3 more of the fields. I don't know what those fields are called in the training hall, but please don't rage if Im wrong. I'm still learnning after being in Spiral Knights for 1 and a half month.

So post your rates of what you think this suggestion is.

Question

How would a person get out of a sleep field once they're trapped in it?

Sleepwalking.

Status:

Sleep has been largely removed from the game, and now the only sources of sleep are either by potions, a vanity animation, and MAYBE the soul slooms. It's primarily because sleep (I think) was buggy, or something like that, so they removed it.
Curse is a very limited status condition, with only sleep being rarer, and with good reason. Curse is a status that renders the Knight unable to attack or use most items. It deals a ton of damage to the player, and the period of wait is long enough for every monster in the floor of the clockworks to maul you.
Stun is fine as a status, as it's basically a freeze trap, only you can actually move.
To sum it all up, Stun is the only status trap that I would consider adding to the game.

Agreed with Horizonknight

I agree with Horizonknight.

Though, it'd be pretty neat for a Knight in the Advanced Training Hall to feel what it's like to be Cursed or Stunned.

@Materialist The stun traps

@Materialist
The stun traps are ONLY in downtown Ld. In regular levels, when you walk in spikes you take daamge.

@Sourix
I agree.

I want a sleep field just to WRH everyone into it. Hell, could be a funny mini-game if we all try it together.

About curse

Would curse be considered OP if it lasted 7-ish seconds like all the other statuses?
