I can keep one goblin alive. I tried putting the corpse of construct (1) in position (2). After I've done that I can use the other two corpses to reach either (3) or (4). I can lead the goblin to the pressure plate, but it always escaped when I try to reach the bottom of the small room. Any hint?

How do you get the corpse to (2)? The top two rows of lakes seem inaccessible without sacrificing a corpse.

You don't need the corpse exactly at 2 (I also don't see how that's possible without wasting one), but placing it at another part of that lake is still enough to get the constructs up top.

EDIT: As for how to get a construct to said lake in the first place without killing any yet:

Does anyone have any general advice here? I get the general idea of this room, but at some point, I just end up with goblins on my back with no way to deal with them.

I'm sorry, I just can't figure out how this is possible. I know I need to transfer the constructs from non-oremite square to non-oremite square, but they all just seem too far apart. How does this work?

Constructs can travel in shallow water, but will treat oremites as obstacles.

i'm completely stumped here, the oremites kill the constructs, so i can't maneuver them once i've smashed them.

I've figured that much out, maybe i'm starting with the wrong one, starting with the bottom left, and no matter what, i don't see a way to get him clear of the water...........edit, got a little progress, going to keep hacking away at this

Okay, exactly what route is it I'm meant to be making for the goblin to traverse? I'm completely lost here...

The goblin alone doesn't have to do anything complicated. Your final goal is to create a stepping stone here:

Then you can get the goblin to stay on the pressure plate. Until then, the only thing it does is get in your way while you lead the constructs around. To minimize this, try to use the corners of the room to trap it and then work on moving constructs on the opposite side. Fortunately, you only need one goblin alive, so get rid of the other as soon as possible.

Your main method of progressing is

i am stuck stuck stuck!

I have a stepping stone at (15,15) which used to be the south west construct. I'm having trouble getting either of the other constructs up that way (and the pesky goblin won't stay in its box!)

I'd appreciate big hints (a route map?) or even a demo. I've spent a lot of time on this room and I'm getting sick of it.

Urgh, yeah this one is a slog. My demo was 1300 moves and 8 minutes long so attached is one of the high scores.
