- – Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure description
Goliath Drow are enemies in Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure and Skylanders: Giants. They are part of the Drow family and the largest among them. They attack the Skylanders by charging at them with their two gauntlets, one attached to each arm. While charging, their gauntlets form spikes and glow green, protecting the Goliath Drow from any attack from the front. When a Goliath Drow stops charging, it is highly vulnerable to attacks. A charge immediately stops if the Goliath hits a wall or a Skylander.
The Goliath Drow are also one of the few enemies that return in Skylanders: Giants, with armored variants that must be weakened the same way as regular ones, with additional health. Brock, an enemy turned ally of the Skylanders, is the largest of the Goliath Drow.
