====Trap strategy====-* when fighting or running from an enemy traps can give you a slight to huge advantage * set trap (banana peel, broken bottle, beartrapbear trap), move so that enemy walks into trap to get a slight to huge advantage advantage.

He slipped on a peel severed his vermis arm panicked and ran away :)* don set bear traps if you are running awayawayscientific

====Chests====* use chests to store valuables in to keep yourself unburdened* carry a small chest or better yet a strongbox to store breakable burnable valuables in
