The Trapper can infest the battlefield with their haunted spiders, leaving latent curses in key areas. If you let the Trapper have their way, you won't be able to navigate the map without springing some sort of trap.

You can try to wait until after leech to buy an armor type ideally, but buy as soon as it becomes apparent you need one
