In recent months there have been 2 clear content release patterns:
- 2 evolutions
- 1 evolution and 1 new card
This season continues with the Goblin theme of the recent update, adding evolutions for 2 Goblin cards. Yesterday we published details of the Evolved Goblin Giant, and today we’ll cover the Goblin Drill.
The evolution card description says the following:
Let’s play Whack-A-Drill!!
When deployed near enemy Crown Towers, Goblin Drill submerges and reappears around the tower as it takes damage, spawning Goblins each time.
Evolution Stats
The new direction for evolutions is to avoid basic stat buffs and provide more complex mechanics. Evolved Goblin Drill will also have the same health and damage as the normal form.
Evolution Ability: Whack-A-Drill!
Evolved Goblin Drill has an HP-triggering ability like Goblin Demolisher, but instead of having a single trigger at 50%, it has 2 triggers: one at 33% and another at 66%.
Each of these triggers causes the Goblin Drill to hide and reappear in a different location.
Every time the Goblin Drill hides, it spawns 2 Goblins. When it reappears, it deals tower damage again.
While these actions are triggered, normal Goblin spawns happen as usual: 1 every 3 seconds. When the drill is finally defeated, 2 more Goblins spawn, just as with the normal drill.
A relevant detail: the respawn only triggers whe the drill is at or below the 33/66 mark. This means that if you manage to one-shot the drill, it won’t be able to escape and reappear. For example, a Sparky or Rocket can destroy it directly, allowing only the 2 final Goblins to spawn.
Multiple Spawn Locations
Evolved Goblin Drill doesn’t spawn 3 times anywhere, it can only do that when deployed in contact with a Crown Tower.
Each of the spawns rotates 90 degrees around the selected Crown Tower, but not always in the same direction. It seems to change depending on the position, to reduce exposure to the 2nd tower. You can see all the spawn locations in this short video:
Evolution Cycles
Goblin Drill needs 2 Cycles to activate the evolution, so 1 in every 3 deploys will be evolved.
Evolution Release
The Goblin Drill Evolution will be available through an in-app purchase (IAP) during next season. No other details are confirmed yet, but we expect something similar to previous seasons:
- Released the second week of the season
- Around $10 USD in the shop
- Evolution IAP paired with a non-exclusive emote
Other ways to find Goblin Drill shards are:
- Level Up chests
- Season Shop (in a future seasons)
- Shop Offers (in a future seasons)
And as always, you can also spend Wild Shards to unlock it once it has been released.
