Based on an earlier post, I would bet the Mantraps or whatever take a percentage of your points, no matter whether you are beefed up or not. Maybe a half of max HP at a time or more. If you truely get stuck, run past them like hell (this may not work). There may be a spell you can use but I doubt it until you are more advanced. They are really vicious early on. At this stage of the game, I was lucky to kill off ONE of the suckas by moving up to it and hacking away. This beast was one of the hardest, and you will run into a few bigger brothers down the road... Once they attack, you are lucky just to run away from the green poison cloud with no one killed. Don't stand there at a distance (within their range)whatever you do!
