Are you allowing evil eyes? You could have an evil eye ambush be impossible without getting the potion.
For something a bit more complicated...
* Force the player to get the potion, and then make them lure roaches into necessary positions (like levels 9 and 19 of KDD).
* Roach queen guidance with an invisibility potion. Can also have several potions, and so you need to figure out when you need to be invisible to get the queen through a section, and when you don't. (Has been done a few times, but everyone adds their own unique twist to similar puzzles.)
* Wraithwings can also be funky with invisibility potions, since their "
safe"
distance is the same as the potion radius.
* Need to get a roach queen in a certain position and have her lay eggs, and then you go somewhere else in the room to strike an orb (and have another potion in the way to lose the invisibility).
Edit: okay, I broke the "
no monster more complicated than roaches"
thing.
I was more thinking stuff a
lot more complicated than roaches, but allowing things within the first 3 levels of KDD.
Game on,
