So I guess I've completed the difficult part of the room and now I'm stuck at the easy part. I have golem corpses on the 3 northern pressure plates and I need to use the keg and the construct to remove them. But how exactly do I do that? I tried positioning the keg and the construct to the south of the hot tiles and making him push the keg up, but I can't get him to stop at the right tile, I'm always just one move short.

EDIT: Got it. H&S magic is working well I see.

I'm stuck at the same point. Any help much appreciated

1) To get the construct to stop at the right point either (a) I need to be directly to the East/West of him or (b) there needs to be something blocking his way(which would have to be the eye).

2) I also need to be directly north of him when he first pushes the keg onto the hot tiles, but this doesn't give me time to move to the East or West, so (a) is out

3) With regards (b) I can get the eye onto the pressure plate the construct was previously standing on, but it's impossible to get the construct + keg into the inner chamber without releasing it too early.

I can't seem to get any other approach to work - what combination of objects should I be using to hold down the four pressure plates?

I have no idea how to get the rock piles of the PP.

I probably should use the keg, but I don't see how?

1 is rock pile

What to do with 3rd golem/rock pile?

I'm probably going to say: "OMG so easy",
but can you give me the positions of the 3 rock piles, keg and construct?

I'm totaly stumped... :blush

I'm one move short at the end. I can't get it to take out both piles.

That's not actually the intended solution. It's an alternate solution that works, but calling it intended relegates the existence of that feature to a red herring.

The room can be solved without waking the eye, and also by killing the eye on the spikes. Think more carefully about the initial setup.

With the hints above, have the construct right of the water. It's movement is not similar to goblins so it will not try to go through the pressure plate unless you wait for it to

I got it with a slightly different formation of rock piles than the "solution" above, and I did use the spikes.
