Caltrops are throwing utility items. They are an area denial weapon and they cover a pretty large area and they can be optionally tipped in some poisons. Most enemies are dumb enough to run straight into your caltrops if there is no alternative path, taking heavy damage in the process.

Note that you can hurt yourself with your own caltrops. Wearing Jumping Stilts, any type of metal boots or having the Sure Step feat lets one navigate caltrops safely.

Crafting

Caltrops can be crafted with Blueprint: Caltrops.
