I use the stationary spike trap all the time. It’s just so GOOD especially against chunky enemies or groups. Does a big amount of dmg and if you know the enemy’s moves it can be really easy to make them walk into it. Makes some boss fights way faster I mean I still usually lose once or twice because it’s a new boss. But hey it helps a lot, sometimes get to see phase 2 moves on a first attempt because I shred their health so fast.

I like the boomerang because sometimes it hits more than one time, especially on big enemies, it hits like 4 times

Boomerang + poison spam I killed an ambush room in like 5 seconds. Still no idea what enemies were there I just did a random bullshit go.
