Surprisingly, the Goblin King is not as challenging as one might expect. Compared to other bosses, such as the Dire Bear, it falls on the easier side. Beware, though; the Goblin King periodically summons minion Goblins to disrupt your efforts during the fight. If you are part of a team, allow one teammate to manage the minions while the others focus their attacks on the boss.
