Thread: Goblin Town

Currently working on a guide, here's the start of it. Enjoy.



::Bilbo's Buttons::

Stained Button: if you come in through the mountain's throat entrance...continue straight. You will come to a place where you can either go down, left, or right. Go right and follow the curve around. You will see a debris pile at the very end...loot it, the button is here.

Bent Button, Tarnished Button, and Blackened Cufflink: all random drops from goblins

Scratched Button: This is found near the named mob Narash. He is in a room off the blogmal tunnels. The button is in a battered chest. (War Steadings)

Shiny Button: This is found near Dagal the Observer. It is in his room inside a discarded pouch. (War Steadings)

Broken Cufflink: this can be found in a ruined bag in a tunnel near the Goblin King instance. (Eglanur)

Polished Button: I found this in Thundergrot. If you take the stairs to the very very bottom, and then follow the tunnels to the left...then take another immediate left...it is in a refuse pile near two lashers.

Thanks for the maps. Where the heck is Goblin Town, anyway?

Goblin Town is in the new Misty Mountains area - north west portion of the map. Great map so far OP! I haven't gotten that far yet myself, but it's encouraging to see how much still to explore. BTW - LOVE the goblin sayings, even when they gloat "I killed one of them!" when I'm defeated. LOL!

i would suggest putting little signs on what room it is, and which tunnels warp you to where...

coz (heres a spoiler) some area are actually the same instance, but different elevation

oh, and u missed the goblin king room!

btw, have anybody found Gollum's room??

aye Davadin, many have found it to my knowledge, just send myself, Ruu or Buu a tell and maybe we can take ya there some time

All that's coming Davad. I've been up and down through the instance, but my screenshots were all out of whack.

I'm making another foray in there tonight and going to get /locs and screenies of the zones I'm in so that I can fill out the map.

Gollum's cave was WEAK, IMHO. It should have had something cooler.

Also, since there are ~8 named mobs, they really should all drop a piece of a goblin armor set. That would have been really cool.


All in all, I find Goblin-town to be the best levelling spot in the game for the 45-50 grind. The speed at which you can mow through the mobs is incredible and the spawn rate is awesome. Not to mention the money you can make off the drops. The recipe drops are on too big of a range, and I'd love more stackable loot drops, but then the game would be TOO EASY.

Expect a fully fleshed out GT guide within the week.

where are the trolls?

They're in the bottomof GT- but on his diagram, it's the top right map.

Yes how to get to Goblin town or even into the High Pass as I can't find my way in at all.
Stupid? Maybe

One path is through the Giant Halls in Southeast Misty Mountains and the other is a winding ramp path just North of the old goblin camp. Those will lead you to High Pass.

Goblin-town has two entrances at the Northmost part of High Pass.

I have been to Gollums cave but it was what i thought it should be which is very simple. Unless you saw the terrible Hobbit cartoon from the 70's it will fit in with the book.

This is blasphemy! This is madness!

Thundergrot....

thanks, now who wants tyo help me kill some

All he's missing now is the War Steadings (Uruk-infested zone) which is on th western side of the map. On his map, go all the way west from where it says "Slave Pens" and the apparent deadend there is the place.

Thanks Nurien. I have screenshots of us IN the zone, but none leading into it, so I wasn't sure where we zoned in at. It was a long night of Goblin Town'ing and I had 300 screenshots to sort through. I was taking all mob spawn points and boss mobs screenshots. That level of guide is going to take more spare time than I have right now.

I'll add that other zone in point this evening.

Updated map.

Added in all known Named mob locations.

To Do:

- Named Mob stats
- Quest Guide
- Some map needs filling in

BTW thanks for putting this together. It's amazingly useful, and probably took a ton of work.

Yes, thank you so much for all your work. This is going to come in REALLY handy!

Ooooooooh! This is Goblin Town! I loved that part in the Hobbit! Is it all dark and gloomy in there? Is the Gollum in his cave, or is it inhabited by some creepy-crawly now?

Cant wait til they open up the Mirkwood! :3

/bump

we need this map.

Well done and thank you!!

Isn't this like Tim Burton's Halloween Town?


Have a 'scary' game!

Ah, very nicely done. This will come in handy for sure!

We can't find the Uruk Orders for Gloin anywhere in the War-Steadings section.

All thats in there is ergular Orcs, and Dagal. Are they really where #7 is on the map?


Thanks for the map it's outstanding work *thumbs up*

All the way down to the bottom of the zone, and there's a named that has them on his person. Loot the body to acquire them.

There is an elite orc champion by the name of Narashi at #7 who carries the orc orders

I *think* I found the Orc Orders at the end of the southwestern, dead end, tunnel of that same area, not where #7 is on the map. Also I *think* they dropped from a named Signature, not elite, as I was able to solo this quest, and I can't generally solo same level elites.

I'll swing by there tonight and double check, but I *think* that's right...

Edit: Actually, now that I think about it more, I take back part 1, I'm pretty sure the placement is correct, you just have to be on the second level to get into the back section of that 1st level room, it's not connected like it looks on the map. That's why I thought he was in a different locations because I couldn't picture him in the main room...
But I'm still pretty sure he's only a Sig. ... Still have to check on that.
