ESO's History of Hilarious Goblin Glitches

The Goblin costume in the Elder Scrolls Online has been prone to some very strange glitches over the years.

One of the many costumes that you can get for your character in the Elder Scrolls Online is the goblin disguise that comes from the Shadowsilk Gem (If you want to know how to get this costume, we wrote about it here). 

It just so happens that this particular costume functions pretty much the same as polymorphs, which are collectibles in ESO that completely morph your character's appearance into something else. This "polymorph" is unique because it also completely changes many of the animations that your character uses, which might explain why it has been so vulnerable to funny bugs in the past. 

This article will share some of the funniest goblin related glitches that we've seen.
