They are humorous creatures, constantly giggling and screeching, running erratically while dropping gold or items, and pausing to open a portal and attempt to escape if they go several seconds without being hit. Once activated by a player moving near or hitting them with a spell or projectile, the Goblins will activate and run away. Goblins are stationary when first spotted, and will always be found standing by an open portal to their escape realm. Goblins (or Gobbies) are found randomly scattered around the dungeons and Rifts. The Treasure Goblin is a harmless monster type first found in Diablo 3.
