Goblins are armed with a double-barreled [[needle cannon]] capable of dealing significant damage to vehicles. The Needler can also be utilized as a multiple-launch system, capable of firing a barrage of [[blamite]] shards that can target up to eight different hostiles. This feature is powered by a device attached to the Goblin's backside and is disabled when the device is removed or destroyed. Accompanying the power device is a [[Shardstorm launcher]], capable of firing entire clouds of blamite needles.{{Ref/Reuse|CFBuzz}} As a backup weapon, the Goblin is armed with a [[grenade launcher]].{{Ref/Reuse|polygon}} | Goblins are armed with a double-barreled [[heavy needle cannon]] capable of dealing significant damage to vehicles.
