    Todays Target: Goblin Race: Vex Goblins are the low end machines for the Vex. They are mildly fast, fearless, accurate, can teleport, and uses all ranges of the vex weapons. These guys are a front line blocker. They are typically found in groups of three all the way up to ten. They don't swarm, but they will line up side by side to create a wall and keep shooting until their target is dead. When chasing targets or moving in to get into position they will teleport. Very rarely do they teleport to move out of enemy fire or to gain a combat advantage. Goblins use all Vex type weapons. They mostly use the slap rifle and they are fairly accurate with it. It special cases like strikes, events, and boss fights in quests, the Goblin will use Line Rifles and Torch Hammers. Line Rifles are the sniper weapon you see Hobgoblins use and Torch Hammers are the only weapon a Minotaur uses. When entering an event or into a boss fight the amount of Goblins with Torch Hammers goes up quick. When facing elite versions of these guys, they are in the same pack size of three -ten and are joined by elite Harpys and Minotaurs. Their communication skills are strictly to track down targets to shoot or to communicate to other Vex. This is deadly in the sense that you can lose a group of machines by dodging around pillars. As soon as even one sees you, all will shift their attention to your way. Remember they are a collective, so one mind sees all. How to Handle: When facing normal Goblins, shoot them in the belly. There is a white crystal there and that is your "head shot". One clean shot should put them on their back. If you happen to perform a real head shot one and it lives, there is a chance that it's head will blow off it's shoulders. When this happens they will go into a frenzy and chase down their target all the while holding down their trigger on the gun they are using. A little bit of chaos, but handled just the same, shoot that crystal. If your toon is a softy, I would suggest not diving into the line wall they create. Might not be pretty. For elites the same strategy applies, but they have shields and more health. I would simple farm them into a circle and pick them off one by one. Watch for the back up Minotaurs and Harpys, they will flank you. Grimoire: Tier One → 500 Kills, Tier Two → 1250 Kills, Tier Three → 2500 Kills
