I have absolutely no idea how to kill all the adders in upper adder chamber. How I'm supposed to kill them all?

Thanks. At least I know what I need to do now. Neat room.

EDIT: Done.

Hi everyone!

OK, the fact that there's a new Zch and Kallor hold actually did drag me out of my long non-DROD torpor. But wow...hard room.

The lower chamber is not bad. The upper chamber, however...

I actually think I know what I need to do:

So some gentle hints would be appreciated, to let me know I'm on the right track.

Josh

I first tried to do what you're trying, too, but then understood that it's impossible.

It was sure starting to seem impossible to me. But now I have it...thanks! (And I learned something I didn't know about adders!)

Hello guys, just a small question. Do I use lower adder to direct goblins into upper chamber?
Thank you in advance

OK, so I do not need lower adder to clean upper chamber
Another tricky question - do I need 3 goblins to clean upper chamber?
please say yes please say yes please say yes

And after all - I really want to thank you for effort. Without this section, I would give up drod cca 3 yrs ago
Svata

Now I see - 2 were enough, thx anyway

Congrats for this hold. Really good.
However, after cleaning the lowest chamber, i got 2 goblins left for upper one, but whatever i do, i can let only one in, closing the door, so in any way the adders (except one) can't escape. I saw that 2 goblins are needed. Any hints please? :|

You do need two goblins to help with the upper chamber, but you don't need to put them inside that chamber.

This changes everything. But...i don't see how a goblin can help without get eated by an adder :(

..Well, if they can't get in, and the adders can't get out, how they can get eaten? :?

Does the upper tunnel help or it's just an entrance to a secret room?

It doesn't help, and you're right that it's a passageway to a secret.

Now that you're thinking about the room differently, try rereading this hint.

I tried to hit the orb and then get in myself, but i'm 1 move short (damn, nearly to finish it without goblins lol)...

Tried also to put the goblin western of the chambers with the orbs, hit them, and then get him into, but a square left too.

Is one of that the correct way?

Thanks.

No, sorry, you shouldn't put anything into the upper chamber. Not yourself. Not a goblin.

Look again at this hint.

I'm not talking about to put them inside, but near the plessure plate, so the exiting adder will get longer.

Edit: YES, DONE.

Thanks CuriousShyRabbit.

Looked and get what's required but just don't see how you can keep the goblins far enough away from you to be targets at or just after the striking of the orb. There doesn't appear to be any way to get from the orb to the exit in time when they're directly on your tail so I'm assuming that it is far rather than near that's required?

Ok, so I'm being dumb as an ox but this screenshot is as close as I can get. Any move to go round and open the door for the snake just results in the goblins following me and therefore being way out of the adder's reach. By all means laugh yourself stupid at my ineptitude but please put me out of my misery! :weep

But that's precisely what I don't see any way to achieve. Unless the exit to the goblin chamber is on the west side the procedure you suggest seems all but impossible. Is there something about goblins I don't know?

How do I access the secret room? It looks like I need 7 goblins for the bottom adders, and 2 for the top ones.

Adder shortens when colliding the tail of another adder even when this tail is on a closed yellow gate.

EDIT: Now that I think about it you also need to check the movement orders af the adders in the southern chamber to save goblins.

If you did optimally on both traps you have 1 spare goblin to help you get to the secret room.
