i hate those mantraps in ishad nha..........everytime I go and venture out after talking to the rat pack, i always bump into those guys. What is the best way to kill em off before they kill me????

Spoiler indeed,

1- Don't go pass the rat guys house after dark
2- Run to Shurugeon Castle
3- When you get to the moat, turn left until you hit the clearing (just before you go under the tower).
4- Wait for the mandtrap to show up. They will not be able to reach the clearing because of the moat
5- Peek around the corner and cast meteor storm (or any distance Sun spells)
6- When your mana is low, back into the clearing and wait for it to replenish
7- Repeat 4-6 until all four mantraps are dead.

Good luck!
