Checking Out Warcraft's Undermine(d) Goblin Factions And The Renown Rewards They'll Offer

Today it's time to get a closer look at the goblin cartels you'll be working with (and making a little coin from) in World of Warcraft's 11.1 Undermined update presumably later this month. There's no official release date yet but that's our guess based on the previously revealed roadmap. Heading into Undermine, the city not the patch update, players will find themselves choosing one of four goblin cartels each week.

Similar to how the MMORPG's The War Within factions worked, picking either the Bilgewater, Steamwheedle, Blackwater, or the Venture Company each week will change your reputation gains and rewards each week.

In a new post, Blizzard details some of the familiar names running these cartels and the rewards that come with earning all that sweet Renown, including the Topskimmer Special mount shown above. The track also dishes out a number of customization options for the D.R.I.V.E. car you'll be dashing around town in come patch time.

Get ready to hang out with Monte Gazlowe, Marin Noggenfogger, Trade Prince Revilgaz (or is that Baron?), and Grimla Fizzlecrank a bit.

Just be careful...goblin tech tends to be a bit "boom-y" if you know what I mean.
