Tips & Tricks

  • Robin alone isn't a big threat - it's being surrounded by mighted goblins that's lethal. If you can lure Robin around a corner or use a dead end to restrict the number of enemies that can reach you at once, you can avoid an embarrassing gobliny death. Stair dancing can be used to split the pack.
  • Robin's band does not have herd behavior, so they'll separate over time. If the goblins are awake, you can wait a couple hundred turns, preferably on top of a staircase). This causes most of the pack to wander off. From there, you can lure one or two monsters at a time, slowly pruning them out.
  • If you see a mass of goblins and hobgoblins, this unique is most likely around.

Trivia

Robin is able to throw Ijyb.

History

  • Prior to 0.28, Robin's base damage was 5.
