When Season 2 launches, players who have completed “Ship It!" for Brann Bronzebeard will get a new quest introducing them to new things coming in Season 2.Building on one of the most popular elements of The War Within, these additions will offer fresh exploration experiences, some seasonal updates, and feature a new adversary for Brann.

This Zek'vir-style challenge will bring you (and Brann) face-to-face with Brann's newest nemesis—The Underpin—one of the meanest, craziest goblins within the Undermine. Follow along on the quest "Defeating the Underpin" to bust into The Underpin's Tier 8 Delve to get Brann's hat back!
