Where to find

• Underground Passage X: -425 Y: -200: In a trapped Heavy Chest

Notes

• In addition to the combat round,  Ensnare also loses a turn of duration at the beginning of the target's turn. Therefore, Fly Trap can prevent an opponent from moving for one turn at most.
• Piercing damage from  Ensnare is applied each turn regardless of whether the save fails or succeeds.
• This item pairs well with the Ranger passive  Bounty Hunter, as it forces opponents to save versus being Ensnared with  Disadvantage.
