If you managed to ate giant slug corpse - that might be different for you:P
Most PCs can get acid and fire resistance quite early in the game, which mitigate the effect of trap damage significantly. And if you lose a bunch of gear, well, it happens. Most gear is replaceable. There's very few items in your inventory that are likely to lead to a crisis if you lost them unexpectedly. I rarely bother with detect traps anymore... except for the Mana Temple, the trap density in other areas isn't so big of a deal that I miss not having it (and in the MT, I'd prefer to use the wand).
Hoping to win with every class, doomed. Archer, Barbarian, Bard, Beastfighter, Druid, Elementalist, Farmer, Fighter, Monk, and ULE Priest down.
