Re: JtRH any room (0)

What about rooms that don't include the slayer?

Re: JtRH any room (+3)

I'd suggest an addendum;

Slay the Slayer, AND be able to leave the room.

And yes, I've been gone for quite some time. Muchly busy, and still am. But I've once again become addicted to DROD. For better or for worse.

It is possible. I did it in L3 3N 1W (watch the demo), but I took a long time to kill him. It's funny when he says ''This is outstanding! pursuit will be necessary!'' while he's not here :fun

Re: JtRH any room (0)

It says that I don't have that hold when I tried to upload the demo. I guess you don't have the latest version.

I did it in the Lv. 4 exit room.

If you need a hint...

I guess this is what robobob was talking about.(Cause I sure need a hint) He isn't in that room!

I was surprised here - I don't think the Slayer has any scripted moves in this room.

You can kill the Slayer in Level 4, entrance I think (as I played that room with my bugged player file)

Re: JtRH any room (+1)

Aww I miss killing him so easily. Actually I killed him in many rooms where he was very annoying.
No. I don't think it is possible anymore. Was anyone else able to?

I found a way of killing the slayer that wasn't possible in 2.0.6, but works in 2.0.7. I've attatched a demo.

Thanks for posting this. I think I forgot to make one change. Would you try out the attached .exe to see whether this new vulnerability (or the old one) still exists?

It didn't fix it unfortunately. Attached a demo using the new .exe on 2.0.7, the slayer still gets deaded.

... and a similar one with the original 2.07.

(I probably should have posted these the other way around - sorry!)

I managed to kill him with the new .exe on 2.0.7 in L25 1W in a way I haven't seen before, so I figured I'd say something in here.

Re: JtRH any room (0)

In the new challenges of JtRH there are some Slayer killing challenges.

Now I think(hope) that I'm missing some Slayer movement stuff, to kill a slayer.

I read somewhere: "I pinned him against the wall and killed him",
but I'm not able to do so, so I guess I'm missing some basic slayer movement rules to manipulate him (like bombs can do)

Can anyone give me some strategy tips?

Thanks

Re: JtRH any room (0)

Given some room, it is possible to kill a slayer simply against the wall, but it's HARD. It requires a precise sequence of moves which I learned from the top demo for one of the rooms in FtFT.

There are much easier ways to do it with the help of force arrows or a 1-tile bump in a corner. There's a really great hold demonstrating those tricks.

Re: JtRH any room (0)

So I found that FtFT room

and killed the slayer in Level 22: 1 West
and in Level 3 1N3W
I didn't get the "Slayer of Slayers" challenge...
The scroll mentioning the challenge (somewhere at level 3

),
doesn't mention this room, so I should recieve the challenge, not?

Re: JtRH any room (+1)

This is a problem if you are restoring to progress made before the 5.0 version. For the global script that awards "Slayer of Slayers" to be active, you have to play or restore to 3:3N1W and play forward to whichever room you want to kill the Slayer in. Fortunately, as you mentioned, there are some not-too-hard kills in Level 3.

I learned how to do the “kill slayer against wall”-method thanks to this post.
