It only reset the amount on the ground, so that foes will continue to take damage. It won't increase.

Be carefull, if you used any special caltrops, with nice poison on it, and then throw classic one, you will remove the poison one. Best to always put poison caltrops last.

A good way to somewhat increase caltrops damage, is to combine with acid with cooked shot acid gun, or with flame thanks to incendary grenades or other flames means.

There is something about caltrops that I never got around to check: do the "Sure Step" feat work just like wearing metal boots? Or do you crush/remove the caltrops by walking on them with metal boots?

(Intuitively, sure step means you walk "around" the caltrops leaving them in place, while with metal boots you walk on them, removing them from play.)

It's like wearing metal boots; completely ignore them.
