I have seen the posts that suggest running from the Amazon Mantrap plants into Shurugeon castle, and shooting them from outside their range to hit you. I have three problems I have not been able to solve: one -- the mantraps seem to have greater range than my party with its +1 longbows; two -- I can only get one member to shoot at a time instead of multiples, so what's the point of having several bows?; three -- no matter what I do as far as reaching the castle (I haven't actually gotten in yet, but I know how now), the plants are waiting for me when I show my face and the three of them along with ratlings and swamp mucks and anything and everything else all attack at once! There are only so many things I can take on at once -- especially since the breath weapons of the plants and mucks don't seem to affect each other or the ratlings! This is very frustrating. Does anyone have any advice? Thank you.
