Advanced Concepts 2 : Aumtlich : 2 West (0)
I'm clearly missing something with this room. I can't see any way to get to the aumtlich.
Method 1: get past the aumtlich directly by passing through the hot tiles at the bottom of the screen. Even with blowing up the briar with maximal briar-blow-up-age I can't use that space to effectively stun an aumtlich and get past another one. In fact, the way that the corridors are set up, it seems completely impossible to meaningfully affect an aumtlich's orientation since they'll always have enough time to rotate to face you. Trying the sides seems more plausible, but there still doesn't seem to be a way to block one aumtlich beam without being hit by another on the hot tiles.
Method 2: hit the orb before dealing with the aumtlich. This would allow using the tunnel to get to them. However, it's impossible to safely pass the hot tile near the orb without getting hit by one of the aumtlich beams, never mind somehow getting back out again.
What am I missing with this room? There doesn't seem to be any way to get an aumtlich out of position or to stun one in any meaningful way when your sword is needed to block another beam at the same time.
