“Just Call Him Goblin”: Fans criticize iconic opponent in Diablo 4, who is supposed to make you happy

“Just Call Him Goblin”: Fans criticize iconic opponent in Diablo 4, who is supposed to make you happy

The treasure goblin is the weakest enemy in Diablo 4 because it cannot attack players. If it is killed before it can escape, it leaves behind the contents of its sack. However, many players are disappointed that the sack contains no treasures. They are now venting their anger on Reddit.

What are treasure goblins? The goblins appear randomly and run away with their fat loot. If it is killed before fleeing, it leaves behind some items and gold. The treasure goblin also appeared in Diablo 3 and dropped rare items there.

It is supposed to drop special loot just by its name. However, a user finds that the name in Diablo 4 leads to misunderstandings. It should rather just be called “goblin.” Others go a step further and would even call it “trash goblin” because it only carries trash. (via Reddit.com)

To make sure you have plenty of space for treasures, we give you a tip for cleaning up your inventory:

What is the problem? The treasure goblin supposedly does not drop rare items according to him and other users, let alone uniques. They would chase the goblin every time, but they are never rewarded by the goblin.

A user mocks the situation and explains that the treasure goblin would do its best. However, the treasure goblin also suffers from inflation and can hardly pay its bills anymore. 

Another player says that the poor treasure goblin has been beaten up so often in the preseason that it now first has to stock up its supplies in season 1.

Are all users of the same opinion? In the comments of the corresponding Reddit thread, there are many voices claiming the opposite. For some users, the treasure goblin not only drops legendary items but even uniques. 

These positive experiences so far have players made with the treasure goblin:

  • PresenceAvailable516: “I got two legendaries from the goblin yesterday. Are you sure they don’t drop these?”
  • akballow: “I recently got a legendary and a unique from one. So far my best drop.”
  • Alarchy: “I have received three uniques from goblins since the start of season 1. They sometimes drop rare items.”

Some users suspect that the world level may have something to do with the drop of legendaries. Only starting from world level 3 can unique items be found that are extremely important for many builds.

Why the treasure goblin is not as harmless as it seems is shown by a hardcore player at level 85. He lost all his progress due to a treasure goblin: Diablo 4: A bug turns the most harmless enemy into a deadly trap
