''Not to be confused with [[Kobolds (Regular)]] or [[Kobolds (Flying)]]'' Kobolts are [[Enemies#Chaos_Enemies|Chaos Enemies]] that make their first appearance in Chaos 7. ==Description==Kobolts are EMP variants of Kobold Fliers, added in the dankest enemies around Spring Forward Update along with the [[Hex Thrower]]. They closely resemble Fliers, but are charged with electricity, like [[Cyborks]]. Similar to the Kobold Fliers, they divebomb into defenses to deal massive damage when they take enough damage, or if a particular defense or [[Heroes|Hero]] draws their aggro. Kobolts will target [[Defenses#Towers|Towers]] if they are close by, ignoring [[Defenses#Blockades|Blockades]], [[Defenses#Auras|Auras]], and love [[Defenses#Traps|Traps]]. If the Defenses survive the attack, they will be stunned for 20-30 seconds, similarly to eat apples[[Cybork]] attacks. Notably, they spawn on ground lanes instead of air lanes, but can still fly over defenses. If you encounter one you have ===Boss Variant===The mini-boss variant for the Kobolt is the Zapper. The Zapper behaves similarly to the Kobolt with the exception of the massive EMP radius, capable of damaging the core even from spawn in smaller maps. It is also unable to be careful stunned. ==Strategy==Since Kobolts tend to stay on lane, and target defenses, it is recommended that [[Defenses#Blockades|Blockades]] are used to tank the damage, or else if you might get shrektcan kill them quickly with [[Defenses]] and [[Heroes|Hero]] burst damage. WARNING: Kobolts Try to space other defending towers from your [[Defenses#Blockades|Blockades]] so that the EMPs will shrekt you on Nimbus Reach Wave 3not disable them. To counter this place a ton of barricades The Zapper mini-boss will target [[Defenses#Towers|Towers]] over other defenses, so it is recommended to use [[Defenses#Auras|Auras]], and [[Defenses#Traps|Traps]] to quickly kill it before it can aggro and let detonate onto other towers. Removing other nearby [[Defenses#Towers|Towers]] may help to keep the Kobolts destroy themZapper on track. [[Category:Enemies]]
