Drops

Etherian Goblin Bomber drops nothing in the game's drop rules.

Demolition sappers hurling explosives at defensive lines

The Etherian Goblin Bomber is a dangerous ranged specialist in the Old One's Army event. Possessing 700 health and 34 defense, this manic goblin marches with explosive ordnance and hurls ticking bombs, dealing 75 contact damage in Classic, 150 in Expert, and 225 in Master mode while blasting fortifications.

Neutralizing explosive lobbers before crystal impact

Unlike standard ground infantry that must physically touch the Eternia Crystal to deal damage, the Goblin Bomber lobs explosive projectiles over player sentries from a distance. If left unchecked, these bombs quickly deplete the crystal's health pool. Players should fly ahead of the defensive line to eliminate bombers early using rapid-fire bows or piercing magic.

Trivia

  • Etherian Goblin Bombers can lob their explosives over obstacles, making static walls ineffective.
  • Their bomb projectiles explode upon landing or after a short fuse timer.
