Talk:Kobold treasure hoard

When used- "Flushed with triumph at your victory over the kobold hoard, you open the chest to claim your prize.

You gain 10 meat.

Dammit!"

Also Gygax has done this like 3 times and it's contained 10 meat each time, so it seems like it might be consistent. --Tcoop 18:20, 3 October 2011 (CEST)

• i've opened four i bought in the mall, and am coming to the conclusion that there's some other condition for the hatchling. do you have to beat them yourself? --Evilkolbot 22:11, 10 October 2011 (CEST)

Obtained from

I don't know how to create a new page for a monster, so I'm posting this here for whoever does know how. The chest is obtained from a family of kobolds, which have the text: "You're fighting a family of kobolds

You drop the massive handful of d4s in front of you, and the rattling they make as they hit the table is suddenly subsumed by the massive rumble of the army of kobolds that is thundering toward you. Looks like you've managed to roll up an entire family of 'em. And kobolds breed like sex-addicted Catholic rabbits, so an entire family of them is very entire." They cannot be photocopied, and pumpkin bombs don't work (you're too scared to get the fuse lit). One of the hit messages: "Barking like mad, the kobolds also bite like mad. Specifically, your giblets like mad. Ouch! Ooh! Argh! Oof! Ugh! Eek! Eek! Ugh! Eek! Ouch!

You lose 72,169 hit points." --DanielH 05:33, 4 October 2011 (CEST)

please note all 100d4 are CONSUMED even if you lose or go 30 rounds without killing them --Ganomex 08:12, 4 October 2011 (CEST)

Do we have information about how to defeat the kobolds? They keep thrashing me. --TedPro 10:10, 5 October 2011 (CEST)

• They can be stunned, so you could just stun them and do whatever it is you do for massive damage. But you looked for answers on the wrong page. If you want to know how to kill a monster, please look for the actual monster, not the loot it drops. --Yatsufusa 08:29, 11 October 2011 (CEST)

whoever's idea this was is an evil genius

Took me 10 effing chests to get the familiar --VinnyB 05:31, 11 October 2011 (CEST)

Update: make that 2 familiars in 30 chests... --VinnyB 10:42, 24 October 2011 (CEST)

• sort of good to know, since i'm only on five, but this sort of news will only push the price up. did you beat the family at all? --Evilkolbot 09:21, 11 October 2011 (CEST)

i bought one chest in the mall and used it, and got the kobold the first time, and stuck it in my DC for safekeeping. bought a second chest and did not get anoter. other possibly relevant info: i had fought, and lost to, the family of kobolds three times previously. (when i was spading, it became cheaper to just buy the chest than to buy another 100d4.) --Techrat 21:01, 13 October 2011 (CEST)

I defeated 1 family of kobolds, then used 7 chests to get the familiar. --AtlanteanScion 04:03, 14 May 2012 (CEST)
