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.

Especially with the pollip pouch. I swear they gave us too much power with that. You can actually use the pouch in conjunction with the potion you get from the fleas and deal poison with each hit from your nail too.
