Trivia
- Before Patch 3.6.0, when Bear Traps
could still be sabotaged, Saboteur's icon reflected that fact by portraying a broken Bear Trap. - On the original official website, Saboteur featured a flavour text: "Hopefully this'll buy me some time."
- The in-game description features a slightly different Sabotage time of 2.5 seconds.
- However, the code governing the Sabotage action states that it actually takes 3 seconds.
