===Gem Goob===
{{conjecture|section=y}}
'''Gem Goobs''' are rare Goobs with crystalline bodies that drop [[gem]]s when defeated. If [[Luigi]] finds one, it will panic and run around, trying to escape. They do not take damage while being vacuumed and must be slammed to deplete their health. They have 80-120 HP. Usually, the Gem Goobs hold white gems, but on [[The Spectral Catch]], a Gem Goob drops a red gem, and on the [[Fitness Center]], there are 2 Gem Goobs: one with a white gem and one with a purple gem.
===Golden Goob===
'''Golden Goobs''' are golden versions of [[Goob]]s, similar to [[Gold Greenie]]s from ''[[Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon]]''. They are occasionally found throughout [[The Last Resort]] and drop treasure if defeated. If Luigi finds one, it will panic and run around the room, trying to escape. If Luigi does not capture it in time, it will escape and cannot be captured anymore. Golden Goobs are also found in the ScareScraper in certain missions.
===Mini Goob===
'''Mini Goobs''' are miniature types of [[Goob]]s spread throughout [[The Last Resort]]. Unlike most other types of ghosts, they are always found in groups of many of their kind. Compared to the other types of ghost in the game, they are relatively easy to capture, due to the fact that they lack HP. Instead, a flash with the [[Strobulb]] will cause them to instantly be defeated by sucking with the [[Poltergust G-00]]. This behavior is similar to that of [[Bowling Ghost]]s, [[Ceiling Surprise]]s and [[Purple Bombers]] from ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''.

Revision as of 07:04, May 27, 2020

Template:Species-infobox Goobs are standard ghosts in Luigi's Mansion 3. They are the most common ghosts in the game, as well as the first ghosts to be fought in the game. They look, behave, and attack very similarly to Greenies from Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, as they normally act mischievous and attack by punching. Goobs have 100 HP.

Like Greenies, Goobs can also use weapons and objects to defend themselves, such as sunglasses and shields, which can be vacuumed away or pulled away with a Suction Shot. There are also Golden Goobs similar to Gold Greenies which drop more treasure, as well as another variety that drops gems when defeated. There are also smaller variants called Mini Goobs which can be easily sucked up.

At the start of the game, when Luigi enters the Grand Lobby, there are Goobs disguised as human staff. These ghosts are seen later on in their true form the next time Luigi enters the lobby, boarding up the front doors to prevent him from escaping. Goobs are encountered normally throughout the game, usually in groups of two or more.

Special Goobs with unique behaviors appear in certain boss fights.

  • Amadeus Wolfgeist summons ballet-dancing Goobs wearing tutus and Strobulb-blocking masks for the second part of his battle. These Goobs attack by spinning into Luigi and cannot be stunned until their masks are removed; once all of them are defeated, Amadeus will possess his piano and begin attacking Luigi personally.
  • Morty's boss fight involves him filming Luigi battling a Goob wearing the upper body of a monster suit. The suit enables the Goob to breathe various types of fireballs, but once it's destroyed, the ghost behaves identically to a regular Goob.
  • The first phase of DJ Phantasmagloria's boss fight has Luigi attempting to reclaim the 15F elevator button from a troupe of Goobs dressed like breakdancers, capable of attacking with various dance moves. Once the ghost carrying the button is sucked up, the rest of them disappear as Phantasmagloria reclaims the button and attacks Luigi herself; the remaining Goobs can be fought later, but they act as normal Goobs.

The end of the game reveals the Goobs were being brainwashed by King Boo's crown gem, as they and the other ghosts quickly regain their senses and become friendly once the gem vanishes from Luigi's hands as they were about to attack him. Among the rest of the standard ghosts in the game, Goobs are seen working with the protagonists to rebuild the fallen hotel through a series of pictures throughout the closing credits.
