World of Warcraft Introduces New Raid Renown System in Patch 11.1 Update

Overview of World of Warcraft Patch 11.1

The upcoming Patch 11.1 introduces the Gallagio Renown faction, enhancing raid gameplay through convenience features, buffs, and cosmetic items.
Players can join the Gallagio Loyalty Rewards Club, which offers 20 tiers of rewards for defeating raid bosses.
Advancement through the Renown track occurs via victories in the Liberation of Undermine raid.

World of Warcraft is set to unveil Patch 11.1, featuring the Gallagio Loyalty Rewards Club, a new faction geared towards enriching the raid experience in the Liberation of Undermine. Players will unlock various benefits, including valuable buffs, cosmetics, and in-game conveniences solely by defeating raid bosses across different difficulty levels.

This latest update, dubbed Undermined, is currently available on the Public Test Realm and serves as the first significant patch for The War Within. It transports players to the Goblin capital, where collaborations with the new Cartels of Undermine are enabled through a Renown system reminiscent of those introduced in The War Within and Dragonflight.

Each week, players will see new tiers for the Gallagio Loyalty Rewards Club become available. Upon entering the raid, players will automatically unlock Renown Tier 1, while Tier 2 will be accessible during the first week following the patch’s release. To fully reap the rewards, players can expect to invest around 19 weeks, although latecomers to the raid can swiftly catch up by progressing through previously achieved tiers. Notably, fame is accumulated by defeating bosses and named lieutenants within the Liberation of Undermine on any difficulty level, with reputation gains being double in an instance compared to normal encounters.

Players will find the Gallagio Loyalty Rewards Club resembles the Nerub-ar Finery system from World of Warcraft: The War Within, which rewards players with currency usable for stacking damage and healing boosts. However, the developers aim to create a more intuitive and thematic experience through this new Renown track, looking to address past flaws in existing systems.

Should the Gallagio Loyalty Rewards Club receive positive feedback, it may pave the way for similar Renown tracks in upcoming raids. Blizzard is keen to gather input from the community regarding this feature in Patch 11.1 and is interested in suggestions for its potential future iterations.
