Is it Safe to Kill the Architect?

While building my temple I realized I had never fought Atziri. I'd like to try fighting her but I'd rather not have my architect move. Suppose I lock my last spymaster and the garrison hanging off the architect. If I then kill the architect, will he be able to move after I close the temple? Presumably he couldn't because he'd be creating a disconnected room. Will this plan let me attempt Atziri and then resume building my temple without complication?

Thanks for any info!

Just lock your main line, last spymaster, before you close the temple. Should be fine.

Architect will still move. It will just delete the other garrison. If you lock the other garrison, it will just leave it floating there with nothing connected to it.

The Architect could also decide to not move. Sometimes he does that.

He's in the perfect spot right now and with those tiles occupied so close to him he'll fuck off to the left or right. I'd just leave him alone if I were you and kill it on another character.

Hes actually in the perfect position which can take 50 temples to get if unlucky.

I wouldn't touch him.

Just wondering how long did it take you to set this up? I been running my ruins for a while now and have only gotten 2 spy masters so far. Is it all just rng luck?

It’s not worth it.

The issue now is that the boss farming strategy is already extremely optimized, so trying to squeeze temple runs in between boss runs will only waste your time and energy.

Don't know if your barracks will prevent him from moving, what I do know is that you can always get him back there later.

You'll "corner" him automatically by continuing to build your snake.

I killed both the architect and atziri at every possible step of building my temple, up to the point where I had around 74 rooms.

Dropped 5-6 exceptional sacrificial regalia while building the temple, which made it both less tedious and more rewarding while waiting for the right rooms to appear.
