Well lore wise the Goblins were also known as powerful sentient beings (herding rats, magic, worship, and ranks) which are very close to the sentient yet more powerful Falmer (herding Chaurus, ranks, and magic. Not sure about worship though) Without a doubt though I believe that the Falmer are stronger since at one time they were a smart Mer race, unlike the Goblins who have always been... you know Goblins. Which does lead me to something since this topic is about Falmer not Goblins and Falmer comparisons, which something I just thought of is that if the Falmer are actually becoming smarter and possibly aware of their surroundings maybe they are smart enough to know that they shouldn't fight whatever dwells on topside. The Goblins spend their lives in sewers, caves, and ruins mostly away from the populace so maybe they were too stupid to attack or smart enough not to and the Falmer may possibly be the same. Maybe some of you are Overestimating the Falmer and maybe they actually are just feral beasts that cannot be reverted and their stupidity and heightened senses make them seem smart.
