6-star all champions with Goblin Pilot under master difficulty

I rebuild my 6-star team for the current patch. Now this team contains L-Targoat, L-Goblin Miner and L-Goblin Pilot.
It can 6 star all champions under master difficulty.
Another thing is that the first member of this team is quite flexible. You can replace Targoat with Oculus, Goblin Warlock, L-kame or another Goblin Miner. All of them can 6-star all the champions, but I think the Targoat version will give the best performance.

Skills & Items

Analyze for the damage dealer

Goblin pilot (light): fire wind neutral dealer
The key skill of Goblin pilot is Volatile Shield (Passive). It works in a similar way to shield burst, consume half of the current shield and hit the enemy. However, unlike Shield burst, Volatile Shield can trigger a critical hit, and its damage type is based on the skill the pilot used. For example, if the pilot uses lightning slash, the type of Volatile Shield triggered is wind. This allows pilot to choose its movement based on the weakness of the enemy. Supercharged (Passive) is also an important skill. The ability to increase the Magic by 100% of its Attack makes pilot a good magical attacker even if its base magic is very low. All the items are chosen in terms of attack, critical hit and health.

Analyze for the supporters

Targoat (light): shielding charging buffing
Targoat is well known as applying charge stacks and shield. In this build, it has three active skills--Sustain, Shield and Aurora's shield (ultimate). When Targoat casts Shield, not only it applies large amount of shield and charge stacks to the Pilot directly, but also shares charge stacks and shield with the whole team thanks to its passive skills Load UP, Leadership and Copy Shield. Charging Amplifier further amplifies those charge stacks.

Goblin Minor (light): shielding charging buffing debuffing
The Minor becomes much stronger under current patch. The ability to apply multiple Armor Break, apply multiple Glory, apply glory while shielding (Forge) and amplify charge stacks makes it so special. When it applies a buff, it also applies shield thanks to buffing shield. Then it will share large amount of shield with the whole party due to Divine Shield, Sun Pendant and Copy shield. All those shield will trigger Load Up, which means more charge stacks.

Performance & evaluation

This team has 5 versions, but I would recommend you to use the Targoat version.
There are two play styles(Power vs. Giga Drill), and the idea is to apply one more armor break on turn 1 before Boss buff itself up.
Style 1 works most of the time, and style two is used to handle Asura, Reduga and Beetloid.


Monster: Targoat Minor Pilot.
turn 1: Sustain; Forge; Power/Giga Drill
turn 2: Aurora's Shield; Forge; skill that deals most damage
turn 3 (if not finished) : shield; Forge; skill that deals most damage

All the bosses are easy to 6-star except for Asura and Reduga. I spend a lot of time to figure out how to 6 star them, and the answer is to use Giga Drill on turn 1.

Compared to my previous build for Goblin Pilot, in this build Goblin pilot can deal more damage, has more critical chance on turn 2 (70%->85%) and has more bulk due to more shield generated and Targoat.

In general, this team is very bulky, and it has a very stable performance. All the skills, items and battle procedures are well optimized to hit the goal, which means the build may fail to get 6 star because of losing some items.

Other versions

Maybe you want to use a monster other than Targoat as the first member:
What? Another Miner?
Yes, you can just use another none-shift Miner, and the pilot will have a critical chance more than 100%.
Hint: cast Forge on turn 1 and Full Potential on turn 2
This little guy is not only cute, but very strong.
Hint: cast Encapsulate on turn 1 and Replenish on turn 2
Warlock sucks!
Hint: cast Occult Power and Full Heal
It is so sad that Kame is a supporter rather than the damage dealer now.
Hint: cast Phalanx on turn 1 and Fortress on turn 2

The build is still powerful, but this guide is outdated, monsters have different skill trees and more points now.

Great for 5s and some 6s, using GobWarlock instead of Targoat, occult power only

[JackTrevor]

This team still works. So well that I was Five-Starring the champions at level 36. I was even five-staring the champion monsters on the first encounter. Six stars are bit more luck-based but if you are just looking for a five-star team, this will do.

It's also REALLY good in Keeper Battles including the Legendary Ones. For the rest of the team I went for a Goblin based one with Goblin Brute (Dark), Goblin King (Dark), and Goblin Warlock (Light).

[Eric30s TTV]

Would you mind updating this? It's still really powerful. Best team i've tried so far.

[Iconmaster]

This team worked beautifully for me! It even completes all the legendary keeper fights without too much trouble. Although, in that regard, only having a 3-member team for the 6-member fights proved to be tricky. What other 3 members would you recommend in order to fully flesh out this Volatile Shield team?

[GGGGarfield]

For patch 1.3, a stronger team for Goblin Pilot is proposed. Kame now serves as a support monster rather than the damage dealer.

[GGGGarfield]

For patch 1.2, since Shield burst works in a different way, the kame part for this guide no longer works. (I guess part of the reason is that I use my Shield burst team too much in pvp so they nerf it lmao)

There is almost no change in the goblin part so you could still use goblin pilot to 6 star champions.

I guess I will update the Kame part recently to see if there is way to make it work for patch 1.2.
