Dungeon Stages, Bosses, and Golden Goblin

Last updated:

Check Dungeon stage recommendations and boss HP, learn to dodge Snow Golem King's ice spikes, find Golden Goblin, and bring ore drops back safely.

Equip a weapon, enter the purple Dungeon gate, clear the current area, and follow the FIGHT entrance. Use Recommend as a difficulty guide rather than an entry requirement, and collect your drops before using Back.

Dungeon Stages, Bosses, and Golden Goblin — illustrated cover

Dungeon entrances in +1 Loot To Forge show recommended Power, and several stages lead to boss fights. Golden Goblin can appear along the route, while defeated enemies leave ores to collect.

Enter and Advance Through the Dungeon

  1. Equip a weapon and walk through the purple Dungeon gate in the main area.
  2. Defeat enemies in the current area, then take the FIGHT entrance toward the next stage.
  3. Read the next entrance's Recommend value and Boss Fight label before entering. You can attempt a stage below its recommended Power, but meeting that value does not guarantee a win.

If an area shows Respawning, wait for its countdown to finish before fighting there again. Use Back to return to the main area when you have finished collecting or need to retreat. You can attempt Dungeon fights before or after a Rebirth as your combat strength allows.

Stage Recommendations and Enemy Reference

Use the stage entries below to identify the next entrance, its displayed Power recommendation, and any listed boss or regular enemies. Recommend helps you judge whether to fight now or improve your equipment and Power first; it is not an entry lock. Boss HP is a separate value from the entrance's recommended Power.

The Dungeon entrance also shows remaining-time indicators for Legendary, Eternal, and Secret ores. Its rare-ore notice lists a 2% Tower Ticket drop chance. Those countdowns show time remaining, not a full refresh schedule. Tower Tickets are used in the Frostbound Tower.

Prepare for the Known Boss Fights

Stage and boss Entrance Recommend Boss HP What to watch for
Stage 3 — Armored Goblin 2K Power 30K HP Keep moving around its close-range pressure; use Back if your health runs low.
Stage 7 — Desert Reaper 26M Power 500M HP Check whether your damage and survivability can sustain the fight; the recommendation does not ensure victory.
Stage 12 — Skeleton Captain 800B Power 13.5T HP Anchor Skeletons share the arena. An area skill can clear them while you continue attacking the boss.
Stage 22 — Snow Golem King 1Qi Power 16.2Qi HP Leave the red ground circles before the ice spikes erupt.

Attack with your equipped weapon, use its displayed skill key, and watch the cooldown before trying the skill again. Move away from incoming attacks and clear minions when they interfere. For equipment and skill choices, see Weapons, Power, and Skills and Combat Skills and the Second Skill Slot.

Dodge Snow Golem King's Ice Spikes

In the Stage 22 fight, watch for three cyan orbs above Snow Golem King. Red circles then mark where the ice spikes will strike. Move sideways out of a marked circle before the spikes appear, then resume attacking. Circling the boss with Shift Lock can help keep it in view, but keep watching the floor even while moving.

Find and Fight Golden Goblin

  1. When a Golden Goblin notification appears, go to the stage named in the notice. Stage 2 is one possible location; follow the current notice rather than waiting there every time.
  2. Find the enemy labeled Golden Goblin, chase it, and attack until its percentage health bar runs out.
  3. Check the ground afterward and use E Collect on a drop you want.

Possible drops include Omni and Sunfire Ore. Neither is a guaranteed reward.

Collect Drops and Return with Your Ores

  1. After a fight, approach a ground drop until E Collect appears, then press E. Check that your ore bag count increases. A coin number beside a ground ore shows its item value; collecting it does not cost that amount.
  2. When the bag is full, further pickups show Pack is full. Use Back to return to the main area with what you have collected.
  3. Open Backpack or the Forge's Ores list to inspect the materials. The ore reference helps identify named drops.

Dying while carrying ores can reset the carried count and show Your Lost Ores. If a boss is beyond your current strength, returning with your haul before attempting it avoids putting those carried ores at risk.

Do I need the recommended Power to enter a Dungeon stage?

No. Recommend is a difficulty cue, not an entry requirement. You can attempt a fight below it, and reaching it does not guarantee victory.

Is Golden Goblin always in Stage 2?

No. A spawn notification can name its current stage. Go to the stage in that notice and look for Golden Goblin's name and percentage health bar.
