Patch 2.1.2 - Updated Goblin Farming Guide / Tips. Find Vaults & New Goblins!

[@TJHughes1]

Hey man, just saw this and wanted to say thanks. After watching I went to the first 4 location on your list and found a goblin at every single one. Back to back. I couldn't believe it. Thanks a lot.

[@PimvdHoorn-wz3gg]

While watching this video is was also following the path playing the game. I found 2 goblins in southern highland cave (lvl 1 and 2) firt lvl gave a portal. Went to Core of Arret next, found another portal. during the vid i Found 5 goblins, 2 portals, 80m gold and 19 legenadaries (1 ancient even)..... You totaly made my day :)

[@xblackdemonx]

i hate you! :D

[@unclefisto6178]

Your information, good sir, was most useful. I'd only ever been to a vault but the once, but after watching this, and farming nothing but tower of the cursed, damned, and Arreat's core, within 3 runs I found a vault. I offer my most sincere thanks.

[@tyler9684]

I watched this video and I literally still had the video open when I found a treasure goblin in Core of Arreat that opened a vault.......... genuinely thankful for the tips man

[@MrBreganze]

following shinobis eyes in the fast forward part is just hilarious :D

[@Shinobi001]

[@zachfromspace5577]

I found a treasure vault first try with your run... I thought it was a fluke, then the second run gave me another. That's awesome! Thank you!

[@Shinobi001]

As mentioned by ninjas in the comments. Cave of Aranae is pretty good as well.

[@satibel]

Do you think it would be a good idea to rush rifts separated with friends to find big gobs packs?

[@mambawatts]

can you help me powerlevel haha new player

[@Crsjcc]

Another great spot on A1 Old Ruins, instead of going down, go up and follow the trail till you hit the cathedral garden (right of the cathedral) and go down into Leoric's passage. I find a Goblin there very often.

[@pixelmeth]

@ 8:10, goblins have always had a sound, their volume was just bumped up in patch 2.1.2 so that you can hear them before you see them.

[@angeredgod]

OMG !!! i watched this video , farmed the spots and within 15 mins i had a vault-90 million THANKS MAN!!!!

[@supersonic060]

SHINOBI, YOU ALWAYS GIVE ME WHAT I WANT!

[@Shinobi001]

Thats what I'm here for. :D

[@WyattTriplett]

Shinobi Shinobi, can i be you're right hand ninja?

[@sppd100]

started watching your video and rifting at same time and got a goblin rift LOL! Had a broken crown equipped as well. SO MANY GEMS!

[@Shinobi001]

Nice man!

[@CR-ip4jo]

A quick place to take a peak is The Royal Crypts, it's super small and quick and I had a goblin there quite a few times, be sure to check the sides and behind the gates too, and if there isn't 1 then it's only like half a min wasted or less :P:D

[@SilverDragon33Productions]

Goblin Rooms in lower rifts are awesome a bunch of them some where between 8-10 appear and scatter. Better to try this in groups. Had 2 in one rift last night. got 250+ gems 1500 Blood shards 6 leg/set items and a ton of crafting stuff. Just make sure you clear all the levels.

[@chrisdelida7150]

Your teleport was in tune with the music when you sped up the video. XD

[@Fluffpower]

Thank you for showing this! Me and my husband will go Gobo Hunting tonight!

[@violentdawg]

I have ran into 2 Malevolent Tormentors (in one rift different floors, after killing guardian)! Both dropped 1 legendary each on T1, believe to drop 1-4 legendaries. Ran into these during the double goblin buff but they were not in pairs (guessing they were excluded).

[@condoslime776]

The caverns of araneae is good too look. look for a bridge above or below if you see opened chests by the bridge then you know arsect the venomous is there with a treasure goblin

[@chazymotto126]

No one ever mentions Krelm's Buff Belt. It gives you an additional 25% move speed when you aren't taking damage. REALLY good for crusader and WD

[@Torusbeast]

You should add Leoric's passage to the list. I find a goblin there about 65% of the time. Very good spot for goblins to farm, run there from the old ruins.

[@A_Username_For_You]

Best ancient legendary so far would have to be my Fate of the Fell. I ended up finding off one of the goblins I was farming while looking for a vault.

[@MadHadder]

question diablo fans.. do these goblin locations work with the xbox one aswell? thanks

[@ssharp32]

Key Warden location are good spot to find goblins and if your looking for the keys it is 2 birds with one stone

[@Kalboc1]

How often does the Malevolent Collector spawn? i came across one this morning

[@signogetnu]

Royal crypt is fast to run through since its just a straight line and you can be lucky to get one there aswell. not the best of places but it takes 1 min to blink through

[@6smurf66]

Ive just done this run and got 4 goblins including a blood thief and also opened up a vault in festering woods... and it was on t6

[@Fleischmann773]

How/where can i see your wiz spec/gear? Is there a diablo online armory?

[@Bluetooth_ez]

I just farmed 7 Odious Collector Goblins, 1 rainbow goblin and 2 general ones in the past 3 hours. Unfortunately I didn't follow any straight forward route. Whimsydale is one weird place...Care Bears and Unicorns haha

[@tagger_]

You forgot about one of them :P Malevolent Tormentor There are 4 Goblins added :) That's the one they hinted at (Hence it not being shown with the 3 others), when they first announced them. That one has dropped a few legendaries/sets for me, when killed. Usually 1-4 per kill. Got my first 2 Ancients from one of those (Goldskin + Magefist) :) Besides that, then try checking out Pandemonium Fortress Level 1. That one usually has a goblin - sometimes even two pretty close to each other. I always check that place as well and have had luck in getting a portal from that place, a few times :)

[@Shinobi001]

Yeah that was my super secret spot for a while, however after some time it seems it's not as good. Maybe hotfixed or just unlucky.

[@tagger_]

RNG as always :) Just made a few Gob-runs and have had a few at that place today. Sometimes two as per usual.

[@tagger_]

***** Pandemonium Fortress, as mentioned in my original comment :) My luck regarding goblins in that spot, seems to okay :)

[@GelotuzRs]

I would also do Tower of Damned level 2, level 3 and Tower of Cursed level 2. They also have great chance to spawn goblin and you can get 1 gobo in every level.

[@h4yunn]

Hey shinobi, can you make a DH build after patch, please? Im having trouble generating enough hatred to use marauders like before the patch, thanks and usefull video as always.

[@SynchroRat]

What is that thing in the potion slot?

[@5blooddragon]

What setting in audio are they sfx, voices,.....

[@Cpt.Zenobia]

anyone know when is the new lvl they talked about in blizzcon coming?

[@ArseniySokolov]

Old Ruins / Dark Cellar is no more a thing (and nerfed pretty while ago - when 2.1 went live i think).

[@jonahmatula1262]

does it have to be in torment 6?

[@aznbigboyjo3]

I think doing rifts are better but im not sure you can find a vault because i never did.

[@R3dCol0r]

Odious collector usually drops plans.

[@TheDivorced]

Old ruins you are going the wrong way. go towards cathedral and look in the nearby entrence, the best place to find a goblin, and a fast one, 2nd fast to Core of Areat.

[@Jerokhna]

For some reason, all the portals I've gotten were with the rainbow goblin to the Whimsydale zone... I want the true goblin vault again. :(

[@gayfgt3864]

you could go into a multiplayer game and do rifts to, I find that much more efficiant than farming routes.

[@Fleischmann773]

I would love to see a 2.1.2 Wiz guide. Is Unity still a must to move up to T6 solo for wiz?

[@Shinobi001]

Yes it is. Season 2 might change that a bit, but thats still up the air. If you want to do Tier 30+ in greater rifts, most of the time you'll need double unity.

[@ESPirits87]

Shinobi Shinobi what do you think about Lightning Wizards, i have played it for couple of months and it's really good with right setup, how viable is it compared to the other specs?.

[@SurferDudex99]

Ziggy Stardust By double unity they mean you and your follower wear one.

[@Cattildo]

Shinobi I disagree. You do not need a double unity for simple T6 farming. You'll get to the point where you can vaporize mobs with 2-3 casts thus negating the need for a unity as they don't live long enough to kill you. He is better off finding a fire SoJ, assuming he is using firebirds. I agree on you with the Grift part, grift 35+ is normally when I start having to use a Unity.

[@Fleischmann773]

I´m curently running my monk, vaporising T6 mobs solo, no idea how wiz is now though

[@glowpipe]

Why oh why didnt you include the Royal crypts ? leading up to skeleton king. Its just as good as core of arreat. I run core of Arreat and royal crypts and then resetting it. Gives me a tonne of gobs

[@jitzedg2442]

you should try royal crypts in front of skeleton king, insane spawns there

[@gayfgt3864]

there are pony level goblins too, Ive gotten 2 already

[@heynando]

huh, loved the song at the end, nice speed you are achieving with that weapon.. - GO NINJAS GO GO NINJAS GO -

[@Darkture]

Welcome back to D3.

[@HammerrPL]

hmm cool video! I like Northern Highlands the most.

[@jacomoni1]

Hi Shinobi, i'm Jean, i'm from Brazil and i'm a huge fan of yours, and i was wondering if you could record your lives and post the video on youtube, does not have to be a 5 hour video, just the most important moments, like when you talk about stuff or when do a good drop or when you have the most fun, moments like that. I'm not asking just cause, it's that i'm not a hardcore player like you, and i go to university and work all day, and when i go home i really whish to play, but i have to go to bed cause the next day its long, so i watch yours videos, and i learn a lot of things, and pratice in the weekends, your lives are full of interesting stuff, and i dont have the time to watch, i really really want, but i dont have the time. Plus, i think its going to help your youtube channel, and i think that are other people like me, that thinks the same way. Well, if you could think about that. Thank you for every video, and the time to help people like me. Oh, if you want to see my character, its Zogis#1428. ;D

[@guldanhamtaro]

I just hope these goblin farming areas are not yet ninja nerfed. I like to farm goblins especially with this new double goblin community buff.

[@Midaspl]

Yesterday I've found like 8 goblins next to each other in the rift. Was that bug or I got extreemly lucky? Nothing good though, cause I was lvling :/ .

[@xRecklessCommunityx]

Midaspl Thats called a treasure goblin pack. My first one was amazing and i freaked out and only got about 5 out of 15 but yeah, they're rare!

[@vova12]

I am not getting any in core of arreat. I did it like 20 times and got 0 goblins. Southern and Northern highlands work best for me.

[@RealhollowdevilGaming]

what about alot of gold?

[@wolverys]

I get 7 goblins on the same place,it was so bizzare

[@nicolaikiller114]

Im wondering why no one is mentioning the "malevolent Gobling"? Drops what is equal to 10-15 goblings in 1

[@Shinobi001]

Yeah true. Malevolent Tormentor is a newly added 4th goblin. It's listed in the new patch notes as well.

[@lachend9891]

first try - 4 goblins second - 3 third - 1 (1 more in the tower of cursed lvl2) fourth - 1 fifth - 1 most goblins in Northern highlands

[@lyonbq1]

I get endless goblins in rifts specially in 3player on the ps4.

[@OwnedByGalatea]

i killed malevolent tormentor yesterday and he dropped 4 uniques and one was ancient lol

[@ArseniySokolov]

Act V - Pandemonium Fortress Level 1. If you find a goblin, you meet another one on that level - guaranteed.

[@quoisky]

...a more recent update for the people coming in to get some goblin farming tips: I confirmed locations Cathedral 1,2 and Fields of Slaughter. I've gotten the vaults a few times there and I added those to my haunting grounds permanently. GL on the haunt. ign: Antag

[@tobiasee42]

Still working ?

[@Omega_Ultima]

Tower of the damned 1 and 2. 10 runs, 17 goblins, 2 portals. Check it out and see what you think.

[@AviciiKai]

which torment did you use?

[@Omega_Ultima]

Avicii's Best T6 forever and always

[@sacrilegiousboi]

ive had group of like 50 goblin and no vault

[@scottnahler4027]

The problem with these gobs is that the chance to get one seems unbalanced I have never seen a blood gob but I have seen plenty of the gob that drops legs Of course another player may have the opposite same with the portal to greeds lair

[@TheGrafifty]

you missed one in the beginning

[@Shinobi001]

Dont see what you're seeing.

[@TheGrafifty]

a goblin

[@nulgathlarva123]

Whenever i run into the goblins, theres like 10 of them...

[@dam4rusxp]

Thumbs up for Fantomenk!

[@Arikunafu]

lol sadly im stuck in T1 unable to even do other Torment lvls xD

[@darkpaladin18]

i can't do t6 :(

[@roflmaobbqwtflol]

I honestly think it's easier doing t6 rifts full clears solo, I get a pack of goblins ever 3 rifts usually plus the other randoms you find. Still a good guide though.

[@dolltron6965]

You can't get the goblin portal in a rift though.

[@Kriks94trolls]

You should try skeleton king area ;-) i always find 1 goblin there. But maybe im Just Lucky on that spot :-)

[@Shinobi001]

Ill give it a shot. Thanks for the heads up.

[@Kriks94trolls]

Shinobi im kinda sad :( its not 100% that the goblin will be there :( cus i did some run and i didnt find any goblin in there when i was on the run :( but i find it kinda rare that its not a goblin there. let me know if u find any goblin there :D btw keep up the good work! :) love your vid they are amazing :D

[@Siekobilly]

Doing some farming tonight and did Royal Crypts with each run. Had a gob about 66-75% of the time. Worth it.

[@chazharrison9760]

I Found Ancient Furnace,after 30 minutes of playing new patch.

[@bantexkaa]

Seems you are having problems with your eyes, is this a regular thing? You should try gaming glasses, doesn't irritate your eyes that much.

[@bantexkaa]

Oh, and ty for the guide, works good :)

[@rossflamboe1128]

I've seen 14 in one area before at the sane time

[@vash49423]

new goblins can only be found in rifts

[@angeredgod]

make that 2 vaults , i got more today than the last month lol

[@kamil10078]

Try Royal Crypt :) 8/10 he's there

[@ninjaclwn420]

And don't wear a puzzle ring because your goblin makes a noise too

[@ShadowXSAP]

I think the new goblins only spawn inside rifts, As i see in your video, you only got normal goblins. and in runs I tried myself before seeing this, all i got was normal goblins.

[@Shinobi001]

Nope they spawn in adventure mode. rifts, bountys. Says so on the patch notes. Just rare to find.

[@ShadowXSAP]

I'll believe it when i see it in game XD I ran bounty's for 6 hours last night, not one special goblin, around 80 normal. Goblins have a global rng chance to spawn anywhere in the game, special or not. Meaning they'd be just as common outside of rifts, as inside. The chance to spawn + rng is based on the core chance on difficulty (t6)

[@DH1cks]

Also, you cannot get the portal to the vault in a rift I believe.

[@ShadowXSAP]

I've gotten whimshyre in a rift before, but never the vault. For vault, even though its pointless now because boon drops in gr. I'd do core of arreat, ive found it 5 times there.

[@SeanAxion12]

ShadowXSAP Had loads of gobs in rifts, on average I get a gob pack every 7-10 rifts- great fun with conduit lol. They always include blood and gem types too. I'm at the point in the game though were only blood gobs are handy.

[@VassRulez]

Dont see the point of farming goblins in bounties unless ur looking for the vault. Pretty sure the new goblins dont even spawn.

[@TheGrafifty]

4:16

[@1ButtonDash]

aren't u the guy that made a post awhile back that you quit diablo? yea...

[@Ninjorz]

All that and you didn't display the easiest goblin to find? And the "cave of aranae is pretty good as well" comment is pretty lacking in quality and description. It's not just good, it's pretty much right where you port in ... there's no real searching. Walk into the first open area and you can go NE or SW from there ... try going down to SW and if there are stairs, go up the platform (and if no stairs right away, stop looking, the stairs will be in the NE). There's an approximate 33% chance for there to be an Elite spider with a treasure chest on the narrow platform. Kill the Elite, open the chest, and now there will be a cocooned victim that is clickable (not clickable before Elite is dead). Click, and out pops a goblin. There can also be a goblin in the open area between the two possible stairs locations (yes, you can get TWO gobs in the the same run - just did it). Easy as pie. It's so easy and consistent, that searching other areas is literally more time consuming. This Gobby has been here for a long time, and still working to this very day.

[@mikelion201000]

damn his voice changed

[@brandiclakeley4200]

I wanna be a ninja too😥

[@johnclark3519]

[@Lyrantes]
