×Hit the rattler to be able to get to south easter mud before it grows twice. I just can't get there fast enough. I know I need to use the mimic, just can't figure out where to place it.

×There are two decoy potions

×If one of the mud blobs becomes unpassable you can use a decoy potion to kill the mother behind it.

×Don't worry about the SE blob, try to beat the NW blob instead.

×To accomplish that, the mimic must stay on the arrows while you're running NE.

×I enter the room with sword north, place the first mimic in the upper-left corner of the bottom area as noted. It hits the adder on every tile in the bottom row of its loop.

I assume the second mimic has to be used similarly. What I've done so far is place it in the upper-right and turn around (which mostly doesn't lose turns because there are turns when the adder's tail is in my way anyhow), but I've tried turning south, southwest, and southeast and everything I try makes me one turn late; I end up on the force arrow.

My best guess is that I need to get the top mimic to hit the adder as many times as possible, but I can't see how to do that easily when I'm moving down-left. If I place it somewhere other than the upper-right corner, it either ends up in the same place when I'm maneuvering or it arrives at the arrows too soon.

×I started the second mimic in a different place.
