[[Description:]]
==Gameplay==
Goblins are have a humanoid limb structure, with two arms and two legs. Their cranium is quite unusual in appearance, however, being disk-like with a singular eye in the lowest end of the head. The skin colour and texture of the Goblin is brass in appearance, and the sounds emitted by the foes are audibly similar to that of the squawking of birds.
Goblins are a cannon-fodder type enemy. They attack from range with low-level projectile weaponry, and do not charge their enemies unless they have gone "berserk". Goblins attack in swarms upwards of six, averaging around groups of ten and usually serve as a frontal diversion for a stronger, flanking opponent such as a [[Cyclops]] or a pair of [[Harpy|Harpies]]. Headshots to a Goblin will cause its cranium to explode and for the Goblin to go berserk. The body of the Goblin charges at it's foe with visual electricity coursing across it's body, and will attempt to melee the adversary.


[[Gameplay:]]
Goblins, much like the "Thrall", serve as a cannon fodder for their respective races. While Thrall are a melee-based enemy, however, Goblins are armed with low-level projectile weaponry, and do not charge their enemies unless they have gone "berserk". Goblins attack in swarms upwards of six, averaging around groups of ten and usually serve as a frontal diversion for a stronger, flanking opponent such as a Cyclops or a pair of Harpies.
[[Berserk Trait:]]
With most enemies, a headshot will deal a killing blow, or at the very least a critical hit. On a Goblin, however, a headshot will cause the Goblin's cranium to explode and for the Goblin to go "berserk". The body of the Goblin charges at it's foe with visual electricity coursing across it's body, and will attempt to melee the adversary.

A Goblin.

Goblins are the lowest rank structure of the Vex. They attack in swarms.[1]

Gameplay

Goblins are a cannon-fodder type enemy. They attack from range with low-level projectile weaponry, and do not charge their enemies unless they have gone "berserk". Goblins attack in swarms upwards of six, averaging around groups of ten and usually serve as a frontal diversion for a stronger, flanking opponent such as a Cyclops or a pair of Harpies. Headshots to a Goblin will cause its cranium to explode and for the Goblin to go berserk. The body of the Goblin charges at it's foe with visual electricity coursing across it's body, and will attempt to melee the adversary.
