Treasure goblins are not rewarding enough early on

I killed 3 or 4 before hitting level 20 and they only dropped 1-2 blues. I think a yellow at least seems reasonable?

I wanna add that I dont think we should have free loot here. But treasure goblin should feel exciting. so rather decrease spawn rate and up the loot drops. Or make sure there are goblins around that are special that makes you wanna go on a wild chase to get it. hunting commonly occuring goblins for meh loot adds nothing to the game.

Out of all the L takes on loot this one is actually good. I felt treasure goblins were a bit poor. But meh its fine to me. If they want to improve their drops I would be okay with it to.

I reckon they get better later on but I had some crazy chases at level 15 or so and it gave me nothing at all which was a bit of a bummer. worse then a big chest which I think is wrong. eh it was even worse the a small chest :smiley:

Yeah i hit a few and it was underwhelming.

The one I found just dropped a paltry amount of gold. On the last beta I got a mount barding from one.

I agree it should feel really awesome to see a goblin. If the first thing that pops into my head is ā€˜meh prob not worth bothering’ then something is wrong.

I got a ā€œShield of Arreatsā€ horse trophy off a Goblin last night.

Wish I could keep it for the main release.

:frowning:

I actually ran across two or three so far with minimal playing time and all were not worth the chase IMO. Last one ran through I think 6-8 packs and I was fighting them off while trying to not let that little bugger port away. Not sure I’ll even bother with them on launch till I hit max level or am playing on tier 2 or higher TBH. Too much trouble for little reward.

My party and I encountered many treasure goblins and they all dropped nothing but gold. Not even a white. Even tho we killed them before teleport. Definitely bugged

I kind of don’t want to have that happen in Beta. Then I would be a tiny bit sad when all our Beta chars are wiped out before release.

If they are the source of some very cool things, then I guess it is fine to me if those are rare and the loot most of the time is average.

Correct i got 2 gobs, the first drops a blue and the second nothing lol

They need to drop minimum 1–3 yellows and a higher chance for a legendary as a dungeon boss. All other doesn’t feels like ohhh ā€œtreasure goblinā€

This is the only loot complaint that actually makes sense, yes goblins loot rate sucks. Fix it

One of those little jerks ran me through like 5 packs and then gave me nothing :sob::joy:

Didn’t even know they were in the game…

yes, a randomly occuring ā€œloot eventā€ in the form of a loot goblin, that requires you to chase, potentionally endangering you for doing so, should reward you with adequate rewards.

if those rewards are nonexistant, why would anyone chase those goblins?

surely there is a balance to be found between spawn-rate and reward that feels good.
now im strictly speaking for myself, but I’d rather have fewer goblins with better rewards than multiple with more trash.

Nothing is rewarding right now, literally all streamers are just farming/looting the bodies in that stronghold up north. Its that treasure chest farm all over again. Why have terrible drop rates if thats what players will do.

Its 1st 20 levels w8 till max level
