No Goblin Racial Buffs?

Continuing the discussion from 11.0.7 Update PTR Development Notes:

Yo, while all the other racials get buffed, you should buff Goblin Racials as well. Rocket Jump is fine but Rocket Barrage hits for 50,000 damage at max level. Like come on. Time is Money should be buffed to 2% haste.

Buff Humans to passively reduce all movement repairing effects and also give us a bonus to all damage that scales infinitely.

No. Do you not understand how broken 2% haste would be? Goblins at least got the racal revamp when other core races got it as well. Sure you could get some more dmg on the rocket barrage but time is money is fine as it is.

Good suggestion.

Thank you for your feedback.

Lower cooldown (1m?) on Rocket Jump would be amazing. Makes us reasonably mobile.

why would blizzard ever buff an already insanely good race?

goblin is legit like an A tier race in PVE and still valuable in PVP.

Yeah, sure, goblins are in a decent state already with their racials (I don’t think their other racials need buffing or changing at all), but it’s a shame that Rocket Barrage is unusably bad past the first 20 levels - even if it didn’t share a cooldown with Rocket Boots there would still be no reason to ever put it on your bars.

All it needs is either a ton more damage or (preferably) a useful effect that lets it actually compete with the boots! I genuinely like the idea of having to pick between the two actives in the moment, risking not having the other when I might need it. So let’s make the barrage actually worth picking!

Not even any Pandaren buffs. I won’t stand for this Mechagnome propaganda!

At the very least take the rocket and jump off the same cd. I’d like a reason to press that rocket button once in awhile. Been playing goblins since they came out and that button is still useless
