Sleeping Knob Goblin Guard

From A KoL Wiki
sleeping Knob Goblin Guard You're fighting a sleeping Knob Goblin Guard

This is a Knob Goblin Guard who's fallen asleep at the switch. The switch, in this case, is the entrance to Cobb's Knob. Normally these guys are pretty tough, but they're notoriously hard to wake up, so you can probably take this one.

Hit Message(s):

He snores an ear-shattering snore. You feel a sharp pain in your <lower back>. You pansy. Ouch!

He flops over and lands on your <lower back>. Oof!

You accidentally trip over him and fall to the ground, scraping your knee. Awww. Ouch!

One of the Zs floating out of his head hits you in the <lower back>. Ouch!

Critical Hit Message:

He starts having a dream where he's chasing something, and starts running in his sleep. He kicks you in the shin a couple of times before settling back down again. Ouch!

Miss Message(s):

He snores loudly, but you harmonize and it sounds lovely.

He flops over, muttering in his sleep. You easily avoid the "attack."

You trip over him and almost fall, but then you catch yourself. Yup, thrills and chills abound.

One of the Zs floating out of his head comes dangerously close to your <lower back>, but you manage to duck out of the way at the last minute.

Fumble Message:

He gets up and starts sleepwalking, waving his sword. At first you think he's attacking, but it turns out he can't even see you. He wanders around for a while, then settles back down. (FUMBLE!)
