Thatâs gonna be an âOofâ from me. XD
Heh. Now Iâve seen it all. Or have I? Mechagilgnomes perhaps?
Dang it, take your like.

If leaks are true gilblins could come out in 9.0 or even prepatch.

Well no gilgoblin updates, but with the normal gobs updated, thereâs nothing we canât fix!
I donât like the eyes on my (male) goblin anymore : / , at least on the face I like. I hope if we do get gilblins they wonât mess up there eyes. Or alternatively face options different from eye color.

Edit: Btw I just noticed some interesting dialogue in Mechagon:
Grizzek Fizzwrench says: âIt sounds like olâ Hobart may not have been completely forthright in inventing his âinventionsââ
âI wonder if he really created anything he claimed.â
Though Saphronetta then mentions Subject Nine, implying that itâs his disastrous inventions that are genuine.

If it is true that he did not create them, then this opens the world to a whole bunch of possibilities. What if these gilblins actually have the same intelligence as goblins, but we donât know it yet?

I also thought I would bring this up. Quotes by Neri Sharpin and Lenu Grillback which are both new in patch 8.2.5
The first one suggests that they are going to be returning to their homes in a future time. However what I am particularly curious is what could be their homes?
The second one adds to the further implications that it is possible that Hobart really didnât invent these guys. However until there is solid lore on this we cannot be sure. I think it would also be a good idea to keep an eye out for the next chronical book and see if anything comes up on this.
Side: Note. Most of the time I would say I am not to happy about the male goblin model updates, but I think for gilblins the smile makes lots of sense since being extra nice and close to nature is kinda their thing.

I wasnât sold on the theory that they were natural at first, but that might just be a possibility now
Edit: Ooh our fellow short races, vulpera and mechagnomes, were just confirmed!
With new and expanded character customization a big feature of Shadowlands, there might be a chance for gilgoblins after all! Dwarves will get Wildhammers, trolls will get Sandfury and Blood Trolls, forsaken can hide bones ⌠maybe goblins can have new gilgoblin skin colors and fin options? Not sure yet if this feature will extend to all pre-allied races, but if goblins are going to get new character customization, gilgoblin looks seem to be in line with what some of the other races are getting!

That would be neat! A lack of any swimming buffs would be too bad, but the appearance would still be really cool.

Iâm guessing gilblin customization might come with goblin stuff if itâs anything like wildhammer. I do hope they consider introducing racials similar to the magâhar/ zandalari where some racials can be picked. It would certainly make the customizations more interesting and along with the theme of the expansion of player choices.

Not allied race, Iâm tired of chasing that bone already. Just add them as customization options to Goblins.

Really donât know how thatâd work, considering some class incompatibility (they donât seem the type to be warlocks), the racials being really thematically unfitting for gilgobs and the fact that theyâd be able to go through the Kezan starting zone.
I mean wildhammer have druids. They wonât be playable⌠and they wonât have to go through kezan ya know. You have an option to choose between exileâs reach. So it wouldnât break immersion. And you have to go through there if your a completly new player.
Can kelfin, or gilgoblin breath underwater?
Yes.
I was hearing news that it was retconed, so they havenât lost this ability?
