Godieth the Dark Balrog (also known as Godieth the Infernal) is the boss of the Forgotten Treasures mini-campaign in Kingdom Rush: Origins.
Overview[]
A temperamental Pit Lord with some serious jealousy issues against his 'more famous' big brother.
After the Dwarves discovered a new substance in the Hollow Mountains, he was released by accident and wiped the dwarves of Dwaraman out completely. On top of his main forces, he has taken command of the remaining spider armies after the Spider Goddess's defeat, even Sons of Mactans. He has the ability to spit dark blood in an area of effect that, like Dark Spitters' ranged attacks and Shadow Champions' death explosions, will turn non-Hero friendly units into Shadowspawn if it kills them. His melee attack also does area of effect damage.
Strategy[]
- A good strategy to defeat Godieth is simply to create a chokepoint and focus your damage output there.
- He deals physical area damage. Use Bladesingers with level 3 Perfect Parry to hold him up, and support them with Forest Keepers with level 3 Circle of Life and many towers that can maximize damage on him. To deal with the enemies sneaking through while your barracks are holding him up, place one or two Golden Longbows in the back whom will fire at Godieth when they can, and otherwise murder enemies walking past it. Due to the fact this boss has no armor you can be pretty flexible in the types of towers you use, but try to use towers with a high fire rate like Wild Magus or Arcane Archers to dispatch against him quickly. It may possibly help to sell most non-magic towers as none of the forces that accompany Godieth will include any spiders, the only enemies in the campaign with any form of magic resistance.
- The damage of his dark blood is not all that high. Reinforcing a chokepoint with forest keepers will nullify any damage.
- Godieth always spits on the primary hero first, and then Bolverk if the primary hero is dead, moving, or flying.
