It requires one Energy to get to Littleridge. You start with Three energy units. Energy can be obtained in a variety of ways:

Regeneration: Every 8 hours 1 empty energy slot will be filled with a new energy point. Your energy count can be seen in the small panel located at the top of your HUD. Energy count cannot exceed 3.

Loot Drops: Event bosses and chests have a small chance to drop energy points or kits to replenish an empty energy slot.

Crafting: For the duration of the event, all zones have a chance to drop Energy Essences. These essences can be crafted into 1 Energy Kit. It takes 1 hour to craft these kits. Crafted energy kits are character bound and can only be used on the character that crafted them.

Purchase Energy Kits: Tradeable energy kits are sold in packs of 5 for 25 platinum on the Event Vendor, as well as by other players on the CS for gold.

Bane Item



The bane item is a premium item offered for platinum during each world event. For the Goblin Event, you have the option to purchase the Cleansing Stone which will protect you from the harmful effects of goblin poison. If you purchased one in a previous year, it should still work for you.

Binding Elixir



Binding Stones are required to craft the Goblin Altar Relic. They only drop when you are under the influence of a Binding Stone Elixir (available from the Event Vendor). Binding Stones are tradeable.

Goblin Elixir



The Goblin Crusher Elixirs will give you a 50% dmg boost in all event zones. They will last for 15 minutes and can be obtained through:

Tiered Rewards: You will obtain one Goblin Crusher Elixir for reaching Bronze Tier and 3 more for reaching Silver Tier
Elixir Vendor: A special vendor is standing in Littleridge to sell you Goblin Crusher Elixirs for 2 platinum each.
Crate Drops: Goblin Crusher Elixirs have a chance to drop from any Goblin Treasure Crate.

Goblin Altar Relic



A Goblin Altar Relic will be required to spawn a portal from any Goblin Altar found around Arlor. To craft a relic you will need the following:

- Goblin Altar Relic Recipe: Available for 75 tokens at the Event Vendor
- 5 Goblin Altar Relic Fragments (Drop)
- Binding Stone

Note the Goblin Altar Relic Recipe is consumed on use!

This portal spawn is the only way to get to The Goblin Mother!

The Goblin Mother

The Goblin Mother gives a large number of leaderboard points and tokens, as well as dropping the 'Mother's Noxious Fogger' Back Pack vanity.
