If you areat Level 80, you will start the first chapter of the Undermine campaign right away. Over the first few chapters, you will get some decent catch-up gear along with enough Valorstones to reach the cap if you aren’t spending any to upgrade gear.
Undermine Awaits
References to the Undermine go back all the way to the days whenWorld of Warcraftwas in development, and at long last players can finally go there in the second chapter of the Undermine campaign. Before continuing the campaign, you will want to go across the street to where you see an upside-down purple triangle on your mini-map.
