Okay, so I have to exploit some weird stalwart aumtlich behaviour here :?

So far I can get the Stalwart at 14,9 facing North. However, I can't get the Aumtlich to stun the Stalwart for 5 consecutive moves so it hits the bomb, because the Aumtlich follows Beethro instead. So I'm completely stuck :(

Any pointers on how to solve this puzzle?

Some things to think about:

The Stalwart is inaccessible (behind force arrow), so the brain path will always go to Beethro, unless...

In this room, what can you do to get more distance between Beethro and the aumtlich?

How were you planning to kill the brain if the Stalwart hits a bomb?

Please let me know if you need a more direct hint. Good luck! :)

Thanks for the quick reply.

I actually got the Stalwart to hit the bomb, but only just realised that the brain is out of range.

Currently, I'm behind the green door, and the Aumtlich is where the rightmost checkpoint is. However, the Stalwart keeps moving back and forth, and no matter how much I toggle that orb, the Aumtlich doesn't really help guide the Stalwart at all. Is this even the right approach? I think I'll need a bigger hint. (Stalwart behaviour bewilders me)

All my attempts are fruitless:(. I am sure I have tried everything humanly possible, yet the solution eludes me. Demos of my futile attempts attached. What do I do wrong?

6, 20 is on the door. You don't want that.
