How To Use Snare Setter in Hollow Knight Silksong

The Snare Setter in Silksong is a Weaver tool that can be used to set traps on the ground. However, unlike most other tools, you have to spend Silk when using this tool. Therefore, you should combine the Snare Setter with a Silk regeneration item, such as Weavelight.
The best place to use the Snare Setter is during fights in arenas or against groups of enemies. The trap can also target multiple enemies simultaneously when they are clustered together. It’s best to place the trap between waves to avoid getting hit while setting it up.
