The Amazoni Mantraps were very hard but I must say besides Elyssia (who I had to use every cell in my brain to figure out how to kill her & her friends without getting killed first), those spores in Dragon Spire were the ones that created the most challenge (so far) in the game for me. I'd throw fire spells & run away when they got too close & wait for them to round the corner after me (same technique I used on the Lilles in Boogre caves) but those lil suckers would not physically appear until they were right on top of me and by that time we were getting spewed to death! I did finally figure out that my cursor could see them long before I could & after that, it became fairly easy.
But what fun, to have monsters that do create a challenge!
I had fun with some Lillies in the Boogre caves too...ran through the teleporter rooms when they got too close to throw spells at & they followed me, taking damage...three rooms later, one arrived & died upon entering ( & I got the EP's for it, lol), the other was hurt enough that I could fight it face to face and kill it in two rounds without it being able to hurt me. It tried to bite but missed. The third had got stuck on the ramp up to where I met Pries Kil'a and I was able to toast it with no trouble whatsoever.
: )
I found that they are easier to fight up close than when they are far enough away to spit at you or breathe or whatever they do that causes so much damage...they only try to bite and so far none have made a successful strike that way. Of course I hurt them good with spells first & then ambush them as they round corners. ; )
