Part 28

Goblin King Fight: The Goblin King casts Thunder frequently. When he charges magic, use a focus attack. He also charges a poison cloud; retreat when he casts a green spell and strike from behind. He teleports using a purple light; follow his health meter to predict his location and charge an attack for his reappearance. Regular Go Goblins may appear; defeat them to avoid HP loss. Focus attacks and powerful magic are key.

Cycles Two and Three: The Goblin King gains Fira and Thundara, with wider radii and more damage. Ensure your items resist fire and thunder before entering.
