How can I kill off all the Colloidal Warriors in the southern bath rooms?
  • 1 of 8: Go in and attack them.
  • 2 of 8: However, there's a better way (especially since the one next to Ebora's room may be unkillable).
  • 3 of 8: In the room east of where you found Ebora, look for a small grating on the wall in the SE corner.
  • 4 of 8: Use it to open it, then crouch down and move past it.
  • 5 of 8: Be sure to time your movement past the steam-spitting valves carefully.
  • 6 of 8: When you get to the room with the big steam regulator machine, use the wheel on it.
  • 7 of 8: You can use a nearby window to watch the Colloidal Warrior in the room next to Ebora's die. (The room with the three mixed Colloidal types will have to be cleared out via more conventional means.)
  • 8 of 8: Now make your way back out the same way you came in, and go pick up the treasure bag the fatso left behind (if the game doesn't cheat you out of it, that is).
