I would appreciate some help getting through this room. I can get all the roaches but am stuck with the seep. I know from the hints to try to find a place to stay where I can get all the seep but can't find it, or maybe I just can't get there.

Please give me some advice.
Thanks

Thanks for the reply, but that doesn't help me. I am probably missing the obvious as usual.

Following in the lines of Niroz's hint...

Well, the concept was that rather than only being able to hold off a horde of monsters in a two square's exposed, you can hold them off with a 3 square's exposed. Including sword of course.

Where can you stand to make use of this?

Unfortunately, despite the good intentions of those kind folks who have already posted hints...

I am still clueless for this one.

Help!

Are you stuck on the seep part? Parse's hints up above basically explain the trick to that. Are you having trouble with that or with something else?

Yes, thank you. I am stuck in the seep part. I tried the previous hint about a particular square, but that still got me killed - so either it's somewhere else, or I'm just not getting the hint as it was meant to be taken.

The roaches are just impossible! Even with haste, there's not enough time to get rid of everything that threatens me.

Understood, but then the T-junction kills me. I can either move diagonally so the roaches don't catch up and get killed when I can't move my sword fast enough, try to wait to get the turn order right and then the roaches catch up, or move orthagonally, clear a spot for me, and then get killed when the roaches behind me move diagonally. I need to get rid of a turn somewhere because turning the sword takes time, but every turn is needed.
