Oh, yeah--I've been less than pleased with Time TRaps, but then I've only beaten ToB once. Jan didn't have much fun with them against Yaga-Shura, as I didn't really have time to pull a Time Stop or anything like that, and I think Big Yaga was immune to Jan's Backstab (could have been Jan's poor THAC0, but I thought THAC0 didn't matter during a Time Stop.)
Also, using them against Balthazar was a big mistake. I thought, "Hey as long as I'm making Balthazar follow me around this merry-go-round, I'll have him step on a Time Trap and let Jan lower his Magic Resistance." Bad Move. That's how I find out that Balthazar is immune to Time Stop....but my PC gets frozen in place like everyone else. Ouch.
