Goblin Stone – Ultimate Breeding Guide

Breeding is the key to obtaining powerful Goblins in Goblin Stone. There are a lot of things that you need to look out for when breeding Goblins. From attributes to genetic traits and even lineage, multiple factors affect the outcome of breeding.

If you don’t know what you’re doing, getting stronger goblins can be quite a hassle, and you would only be wasting your precious Warren’s use by breeding the wrong Goblins. This complete Goblin Stone breeding guide provides everything you need to know about breeding Goblins in this game.

Which Factors Affect The Outcome Of Breeding?

When breeding Goblins, three things will affect the stats and traits of the offspring. These are Attributes, Genetic Traits and finally Lineage. Among these, attributes and genetic traits play a more important role than lineage. Coming across Goblins with lineage is also quite rare. So, let’s learn about each of these factors in detail through this breeding guide for Goblin Stone.

What Are Attributes in Goblin Stone?

Attributes are the stats that dictate the overall power of a Goblin. There are three main attributes which are ‘Body’, ‘Mind’ and ‘Spirit’. 

• Body: The Body attribute provides additional HP and Defense stats and is a must for ‘Guard’ Goblins. Your Goblins get +5 HP for every point of Body attribute they have.
• Mind: The Mind attribute provides Attack and Speed stats to your Goblin and is essential for ‘Raider’, ‘Hunter’ and ‘Bandit’ Goblins. 
• Spirit: The Spirit attribute is a must for ‘Shaman’ Goblins and dictates the magic power they have.

Attributes of offspring Goblins are an aggregate of both the parent Goblins. Both parents must have equally high attributes to ensure that the child also shares high attributes.

What Are Genetic Traits?

Genetic traits, as the name suggests, are traits that are inherent to a Goblin and can be carried down from one Goblin to their offspring. There are four kinds of Genetic Traits, each affecting a different Attribute of the Goblin. 

• Red Genetic Traits: The red genetic traits primarily affect the Body attribute and even provide Armour stats to a Goblin. These are ideal for breeding ‘Guard’ Goblins and do not synergize with ‘Raider,’ ‘Hunter’ or ‘Bandit’ Goblins because these traits provide negative Mind attributes. The most basic red genetic trait is the ‘Brute’ trait.
• Green Genetic Traits: The next genetic trait is the green trait. These traits provide additional combat stats but negative body attributes. Perfect if you want to breed damage-dealing Goblins. The most basic green genetic trait is ‘Flabby.’
• Blue Genetic Traits: The blue genetic traits provide a Spirit attribute boost. Similar to the red genetic traits, blue traits also have a negative impact on Body attributes. The most fundamental blue attribute you can find on a Goblin is the ‘Religious’ trait.
• Yellow Genetic Traits: All class boosts can be acquired from yellow genetic traits. Unlike the other genetic traits, yellow genetic traits provide attack speed or defense boost, which are more class-specific. The most basic yellow trait is the ‘Alert’ trait.

Genetic Traits can be inherited by offspring if you breed Goblins with traits at the Warrens. Matching the right trait with the right attributes is the key to breeding the strongest Goblins. You can also deactivate traits by clicking on them to make the perfect combination that you want.

How To Breed Powerful Goblins in Goblin Stone?

Breeding the strongest Goblins takes more than just luck. You need the perfect combination of Goblins to breed the most powerful ones. Here are some breeding recommendations to create the best Goblins for each class.

Where Can You Find Strong Goblins To Breed?

Breeding also requires having strong Goblins in the first place. You can find these Goblins by either encountering a ‘Goblin’ event during a quest or by recruiting them from the gate. Target Goblins with either two or more traits, and with at least total attributes >= 15.

Having these will allow you to use that Goblin to create much stronger Goblins in the future. If you want to know more about playing Goblin Stone, feel free to check out our detailed guide for beginners to help you get better.
