10 Overpowered Video Game Items Created UNINTENTIONALLY

The hanging trap from Palworld is a useful low-level item that lets you capture weak Pals without having to chase after them.

What you may not know, however, is that it's not just Pals that you can capture with it—you can also trap other humans with it, and this is where the item becomes ridiculously broken.

Thanks to its man-catching properties, the hanging trap lets you capture the Black Marketeer, a rare illegal merchant who deals in selling and buying endangered Pals. Thanks to his illicit trade, the guy is loaded with money, so if you manage to capture him with your hanging trap, you can start bashing him like a pinata for fat stacks of profit, and when you need another influx of cash, you just have to place another hanging trap near his spawn point, then rinse and repeat.

This method allows you to generate infinite amounts of money quickly, and it only takes one easy-to-craft tool that you get within the first hour of the game.

If it sounds broken, it's probably because it is.
