3 goblin leaders - why does whole camp aggro

[Kristian37]

There's a big focus on stealth and taking them out individually. Killed the first fine, but no matter what the Drow and Hobgoblin somehow make the whole camp aggro.

The only thing I notice is that they are temporarily hostile when attacking, and then when hitting the drums they lose that status. Does that status control the whole camp?

EDIT ANSWER:
This went off track fast, but I figured it out. It's the war drum ending temporary hostility.

Just kill them all. Outside and In. Goblins.. next they'll be demanding rights..

[Kristian37]

I figured it out in the end. It's the war drums ending temp hostility. once drums destroyed, no aggro

everytime you do a crime or kill a faction member a notice appears saying -x faction reputation.

You simply killed too many of them while the others were warching your now aggressive with that faction.

Why stealth it? xD I just murdered the whole camp and made friends with the spiders there :D

If someone knows a way to off the hobgoblin without alerting the whole camp I'm all ears. The priestess is easy and if you take out the scrying eye the drow is easy too.

You can pull him to the barrels above (near the treasure room) by making noise, he gets annoyed by it..

By the way, in case people get the "enemy of justice" debuff that agroess all guards in goblin camp, just kill the guy who has it and revify em, removes it.

So heres how I do it, to avoid aggro till the last possible second;

1. Deal with Priestess Gut first. Talk to her, let her brand you, discuss the shadows in your head with her and she will take you somewhere private. Close the door and put astarion behind her and sneak attack her. She will be suprised so if the attack misses or doesn't do enough, your other party members will have a chance too. She dies quick. Nobody notices.

2. Now go for the drow, shes very easy. Put gale with thunderwave on the rock in front of the war drum but at the edge, the goblin speaking to her will try to climb up, push him off the ledge into the abyss in the top right of where gale will be. North of the wardrum.

Make sure to destroy the scrying eye, it will immediately aggro the whole base if you do not kill it when it comes across the bridge, any ranged attack will do its squishy. Once that is done, you will only have to deal with her and possibly 1 goblin or none at all depending on your luck. Very easy.

3. For razglin, when you fight him without cheese, camp will aggro, when you kill him with explosive barrels it will also aggro the camp. The cheese is this; While he is speaking, use a potion of invisibility, walk up to him and then push him down the spider pit or into the chasm behind him from where hes standing doing the ritual. Then immediately pop a new insiv pot afterwards and walk out. make sure your party is not in the same room and the doors are closed. Sneak out while invisible. That SHOULD make sure the camp doesn't aggro.

though im not entirely sure if it was just luck when I did that.

this is so disappointing.

the game takes so much care in respecting decisions that its just confusing why you cant do this one thing...

Does this only apply to the chracter with the debuff or can it be done with whatever dead goblin was the witness

There are 3 drums. I stuck a wine barrel behind him and detonated it with a fire arrow. Then shadow heart nuked him with the necrotic spell.

This is so sad. The literally prepared a stealth kill platform behind the guy. You can lure them with an illusion on that platform and you can completly stealthily destroy the platform, thanks to the 1HP structure. He and his two non goblin friends fall down into the abyss, you sneak out of the room, all without being noticed and still every goblin around considers you now thier enemy.
Seems like an oversight. Why put that platform there if you are literally not supposed to stealth kill him?

Turn invisible, take your strongest character, shove hobgoblin into the pit in the top left, run away.

Nope, you can, in fact, kill him and still maintain peace in the goblin camp
