One especially unluckyWorld of Warcraftplayer had their attempt to catch a Treasure Goblin during theDiablo 4A Greedy Emissary event backfire in an unexpected way. TheWorld of Warcraftevent monster may have been defeated, but it got the last laugh in this hilarious video.

Recently, a player had their Treasure Goblin encounter end in a most unexpected way. Redditor andWorld of Warcraftfan MemeStarKeem shared a video of one of their latest hunts. The Treasure Goblin spawned in the Western Earthshrine in Orgrimmer–a hub that contains multiple portals leading todifferentCataclysmzones. Once the Treasure Goblin was defeated, MemeStarKeem tried to loot it. However, while trying to click on the corpse of the goblin, they erroneously clicked on one of the portals and were transported on a one-way trip across Kalimdor to Uldum.
MemeStarKeem was not the only victim of the Treasure Goblin’s post-mortem prank. Several other players appear in Uldum shortly after they spawned in. Their collective shock and surprise were evident, with some frantically trying to teleport back to Orgrimmar to claim their loot while others simply laughed and accepted their defeat.
Their fellow fans got a kick out of MemeStarKeem’sWorld of Warcraftvideo. Some shared their stories of being teleported away from theDiablo 4Treasure Goblinin similar ways, while others suggested using the Loot-a-Rang toy or waiting until everyone else defeats the monster and clears out to avoid falling victim to the trick next time. ManyWorld of Warcraftplayers also discussed their own luck–both good and bad–in acquiring the exclusive cosmetics from the event.
World of Warcraftfans still have a couple of weeks to farm Treasure Goblins for all of its rare item drops. Once A Greedy Emissary ends, the Winds of Sanctuary will give players a huge experience and reputation buff from June 15 through July 11. Meanwhile,Diablo 4servers are starting to go liveacross the globe for early access. Blizzard fans will soon have plenty of Treasure Goblins to hunt down for awesome loot, regardless of whether they are exploring Azeroth or Sanctuary.
