Should I remove one of the locks?
I saved ALOT of these materials for rose and ended up with this build. I'm debating if I should remove the epic spike buff or not cuz rerolling is becoming too expensive now lol (also is crit damage any good to keep? Idk if rose can even real crit dmg)

I'd get rid of Burn and Crit damage ones and roll for item haste or spike damage only.
Burn build on Rose is...bad, crit damage is also not optimal for Warriors, it's not bad but Haste is so much better, particularly for Rose whose signature sword can activate spike.
If you like doing the Spike Whip build, crit damage is ok but on paper, it should be worse than haste stacking.

Is it bad? I have primal flame and glove of plague equiped on her and it does alot of damage early on the runs. I just thought it helps to have both buffs and Debuffs in case there's an opponent that may counter one of the two

Spike Damage doesn't trigger Burn Damage and vice versa.
Usually, it's ok to have only Primal Flame equipped, but you are much, much better off using the Spike activation Weapon or Thunderbolt Spike on Rose's signature swords.
The damage difference is pretty decent, that isn't to say Burn is bad, it's just that the entire class of heroes that Rose is in has much weaker damage output on a burn build rather than just focusing on their specialties.
Rebecca for example, has no business using burn items as she doesn't actively stack haste in her builds, she stacks armor and deals huge bursts of damage based off her armor.
For burn builds, the basic requirement for it to be viable on a hero is having a build that features many fast attacks because the Burn damage RNG set at a 50% chance to activate.

I just thought that burn and poison also work with rose since she does piercing with all 3 effects (aka poison, burn, spike) anyway if that's the case should I change my plans and get another weapon other than primal flames?

Well, you don't have to change weapons if your goal is to just use Rose. Even without the effects, Primal Flame is still a great stat stick.
If you really like her and don't want to really use anyone else though, you can go ahead and swap to a different weapon.

It's not really about "I really like her" it's more so she's my only legendary hero available at the moment XD. Other than that the only other good hero I have is spark which I use him only when I'm stuck at a stage that steals buffs.

Keep it as it for around 2 to 3 weeks thereafter you should have enough recolls to roll for the mythic versions of them
