In Final Fantasy 16, the developers introduced a rather exciting feature called The Hunt Board. This feature offers players the opportunity to embark on thrilling hunts by picking up bills from the hunt board, using clues given on the bills to find the beasts, and finally, the chance to prove their worth in battle by defeating the beasts and saving the denizens of Valisthea.
Moreover, the players will receive various rewards upon defeating these creatures. These rewards include experience, gil, renown, ability points, and other materials which may be used for crafting, etc.
Gobermouch is a Rank A, Level 38 Notorious Mark. It is a goblin-like creature. This bill will appear to players during the main quest Brotherhood. Although finding and defeating Gobermouch is a side quest, we highly recommend players complete this quest because of the rewards, which include one of the rarest items in the game.
In this Final Fantasy 16 Gobermouch guide, we will show you how to find Gobermouch, some tips to improve your chances of defeating the beast, and how to use the rare items awarded to you after defeating it.
Location Of Gobermouch
The bill provides various clues to help players locate Gobermouch. The clues suggest that Gobermouch is in an abandoned village called Eistla (Kingdom of Waloed).
- After fast traveling to Eistla, proceed down the stairs ahead of you.
- Then follow the series of stairs in front of you to the top.
- Another way to the top is a ladder which comes after the 1st set of stairs; you can directly go up this ladder to reach the top.
- Once at the top, there is an abandoned house; in front of the house, you will find a rogue goblin beast Gobermouch.
- The exact location of Gobermouch, the Rogue Goblin, on the map is shown in the image below.
To engage with the rogue goblin beast, get close to it.
Combat With Gobermouch
One notable aspect when engaging with Gobermouch, the rogue goblin, is that it has no Will meter. Although the monster is classified as a Rank A notorious mark, defeating it is still relatively easy. Some abilities of Gobermouch are
Ability | Description | Tips |
Melee Attacks | Gobermouch uses its club to attack Clive. | Deals little damage can easily be evaded by using Titanic Block. |
Little Swing | Gobermouch rotates his club in a tornado-like fashion moving around the area. | This ability can be evaded by using Titanic Block or moving away from the rogue Goblin. |
Goblin Punch | A combination of three attacks. | To evade this attack, you have to move away from the goblin.
Titanic Block is ineffective against this ability |
Some general tips we found useful while combatting the rogue goblin are
- To stagger Gobermouch, you can use Abilities such as Diamond Dust and Upheaval.
- Odins Zantetsuken also proved to be very helpful in this battle.
Another important factor is that there is little room for players to maneuver in, thus making this battle a little more complicated than it should be. So make sure to stay in the middle area and not near the edges of the battleground. By doing this, you can avoid getting cornered.
We also recommend using Stoneskin Tonic (consumable item ), which increases the chances of survival. However, it is doubtful that a player will require this in this battle, but it still might be useful to players who are weak at dodging.
Rewards
One crucial aspect of this battle lies in the rewards you receive for defeating this creature.
Experience | 4800 XP |
Ability Points | 90 AP |
Renown | 30 renown |
Gil | 15000gil |
Other | Primitive Battlehorn |

I’ve been gaming since I got my PlayStation 2 back in 2008, playing all types of games from WWE, all to way to Naruto, you name it. When I’m not gaming, I’m either focusing on my Electrical Engineering degree or playing football. I absolutely LOVE multiplayer games; carrying my team is pretty fun 😉
