Description
The Goblin Dungeon is an area accessed from Eltibule Keep, containing many tough enemies and worthy treasures. It is currently a good source for Goblin Equipment, various Restorative Potions, and fire salts, among other things.
Also of note, it contains a quest to defeat the goblin boss and rescue the fairy Sarina, which leads to learning Art History. There are also many spawns for various art objects within the dungeon to help you train after you learn the skill.
This dungeon can be very dangerous for those unprepared, as some of the creatures use powerful rage attacks and pull in groups.
Most goblins appear to drop business cards which lets you learn Goblinese.
Points of Interest
Storerooms
There are two Storerooms currently in the dungeon. Both hold a few spawns of various scrolls, goblets, and food, as well as one or two paintings. The first one you'll come across right near the entrance.
Art Galleries
If you go right at the first main junction, there are several rooms with paintings hanging on the walls. Grab the paintings and identify them to increase your Art History skill.
Pulling should be careful around these rooms, as there's usually two or three creatures in each one that can aggro through the thin walls, potentially mobbing the unsuspecting art aficionado.
On the other hand, if you are soloing, it is much safer to stay off the main halls as there are less spawns in these areas and the Brain Bug are relatively harmless.
Mantis Gallery
An Art Gallery in the Northern section of the dungeon that is notable for a different layout than the rest of the Art Galleries, and being the only spawn point in the dungeon for a few Psychic Mantis and Simple Mantis.
Grand Room
A large room containing many paintings and treasures such as a storeroom. It also houses the Goblin Boss, and the fairy that needs to be saved to learn the Art History skill.
This room can be very deadly, as especially around the doorway it's easy for a player to get mobbed by monsters hidden off to the left and right. The Goblin Boss himself can hit very hard and often comes with a large group of other Goblins, so visitors should use caution not to get too close unless they are well prepared.
It is possible to peel off many of the Goblins in the room, and at least 5 of the 6 painting spawns can usually be reached without aggroing the boss.
Goblin Annex
If you just keep going straight for a long time, past all the corridors, you’ll meet a new guardian. Beyond that guardian, the tunnels get VERY difficult! Be warned. You’ll want a LARGE group — it sounds like seven to nine people would be safest if you’re all in the low 30s with your combat skills. A smaller group may work if you’re higher level.
A few tips from Auriel [1]
- You have to destroy the crystals in a certain time period
- If you miss one or they respawn, the chest in the boss room will tell you how many you are missing
- The chest also does not open. Your loot will appear in your pack. Everyone gets their own loot.
- You can only get loot from a chest once per hour.
- You might want to walk instead of run
- Even if you have a dedicated healer, DO bring your own heals. There really aren't enough "heal other" spells, unless you are only healing one person. What seemed to work best for me is having a Battle Chemistry Golem spam heals. Always and using Mentalism buffs, either armor or health depending on gear.
- Have a clear leader and stay together
- If you decide to split up, put a healer in both groups
- Remember, heals do not go through walls
- If you are lost, click your leader on your group panel and cast a spell. It will path you to your leader.
- Use your group chat tab, and watch chat as best you can
- While using your group tab, realize you will not receive PMs there
Inhabitants
Typical loot from Goblins: Potions, Calling Cards, Brass Nails, Simple Metal Slabs, Alchemy Recipes (L 10), and various pieces of armor.
