Where Do You Find Goblins in The Veil?
Goblins march on the Glade in raid waves, and that event is the fastest way to finish the Gladiator quest. Here is where they spawn and what to expect.
Quick answer: goblins are found in the Glade — the surface area — and spawn in numbers during goblin raid events, when the army invades the Glade in waves. The raid is the fastest place to farm the 30 goblin kills for the Gladiator class quest, and its climax summons the Goblin Warlock boss.
Where and when goblins appear
| Placement | What happens | Status |
|---|---|---|
| The Glade (surface) | Regular goblin enemies roam the area | Gameplay documented |
| Goblin raid event | Waves of goblins invade the Glade | Community-documented |
| Goblin Warlock | Boss encounter at the end of the goblin army story beat | Official badge text |
| Goblin race roll | A playable race, unrelated to the mobs | Gameplay verified |
Why players farm goblin raids
- Gladiator quest: kill 30 goblins for trainer Vorax. A raid condenses that into minutes instead of an hour of roaming.
- Gladiator's Locket: the class quest also asks for this item — it drops from armored skeletons in the Weeping Crypt, with rare goblin drops also reported during raids.
- Event density: raid waves give steady silver, drops and Bestiary progress against goblin-type enemies.
The goblin raid, step by step
- Be in the Glade when the raid starts — the event plays out on the surface map, not in the deep labyrinth.
- Fight with the crowd. Contribution matters: the 20% contribution rule gates event chests, so tag and kill steadily rather than arriving at the end.
- Track your quest counter if you are on the Gladiator quest; 30 goblin kills, then hand the Locket to Vorax.
- When the Warlock appears, treat it as a boss: check the boss roster for its badge and the current kill context.
If you cannot find the raid
- Raids are server events — server-hop and re-check the Glade; creators often call them out in the official Discord.
- Outside raids, roaming goblins still count for the quest; the raid just speeds it up.
- An old video's coordinates may predate a patch — use the named area (Glade) rather than a fixed grid point.
