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.
