Oi! Seems to me that the clone must be initially placed in both of two unconnected areas. Now, what was the command to do that? -_-

My assumptions are that...

You might be interested to know that the two monsters down the bottom are actually connected, even if it doesn't look like it.

I trust you aren't merely referring to the stepping stone. So what kind of connection do you mean? (I see no sinkable bridge effect. And I've killed them before; with no odd behaviour on their part.)

Would someone mind posting a demo or an indepth solution to this room please because I just can't get it, problem areas are top two roaches that are beside different potions plus bottom green man and roach. I have read the posts so far and its just not enough for this poor brain.

Sounds like you are able to get the clone potion. You should place the clone

Next, you can kill that lower goblin and roach, as well as the upper left roach near the decoy potion. You'll need to do a lot of switching back and forth between Beethro and his clone - TAB key or click on one with your mouse. Just when a monster is about to get Beethro, switch to the clone, and the monster will step away towards the clone.

Use the decoy potion to

Ok, I've killed all but the two roaches, and the clone is in the are where the goblin and the roach were,
I'm guessing I kill either of these to kill the next with a potion, but how and in which order?

EDIT: Got it while the post was still loading.
Hooray for the H&S effect!

Hm, I have the solution - but not the solution without invisibility potion for the challenge. Any hints?

Not really very helpful. Where should the CLONE be? I assume it is in the southern alcove from where it cannot get either in or out to the main part of the room...

I cannot lure the SE roach far enough to the north without it stepping on the trapdoor that closes the door and traps me in with it. And I cannot find a way to make it stay just a little bit further south for just one more turn.

Thanks. As I posted, I had already solved the room: the question was about the challenge, i.e. NOT using the Invisibility Potion.

I alternated between me and the clone to keep the roach occupied until I reached the door.
