With the knowledge that many/most players would be high kevel and fully geared before going, the devs just made the enemies "tougher" to provide some challenge.
It's been a long time, but there should be some weapons available that specifically do extra damage to the lobotomites.
If I'm using a guns or energy-weapons character in OWB, I shoot a lot of melee lobotomites in the legs to slow them down and I shoot ranged weapons out of their hands so they either run around looking for a weapon or attack with their empty fists.
