World of Warcraft Patch 11.1: Undermined - A Goblin's Demise Sparks Revolution

Key Plot Points:

  • Renzik "The Shiv," a long-standing Goblin NPC, is killed in Patch 11.1.
  • This assassination attempt on Gazlowe ignites a rebellion led by Gazlowe against Trade Prince Gallywix.
  • Gallywix, as the final boss of the Liberation of Undermine raid, faces a perilous fate.

The narrative arc of World of Warcraft's Patch 11.1, Undermined, takes a dramatic turn with the unexpected death of Renzik "The Shiv." This veteran Goblin Rogue, a familiar face to players since the game's inception, is eliminated by Gallywix during an attempt to assassinate Gazlowe. This pivotal moment reshapes the storyline.

Recent Public Test Realm (PTR) access provided players with an early look at Patch 11.1's content, including the Undermine campaign. This campaign reveals the events leading to Renzik's demise. Gazlowe, leader of the Horde's Bilgewater Cartel, and Renzik, second-in-command of the Alliance's SI:7, collaborate to thwart Gallywix's plans in Undermine. However, a sniper targeting Gazlowe accidentally kills Renzik, setting the stage for the ensuing conflict. This event was documented by WoWhead lore analyst Portergauge on Twitter.

Renzik's Legacy: A Catalyst for Rebellion

While not a central figure in WoW's overarching narrative, Renzik's death resonates deeply. His long history in the game, particularly as a quest giver and trainer for Alliance Rogues, makes his passing impactful. His sacrifice, however, fuels Gazlowe's resolve. Enraged, Gazlowe rallies the Trade Princes and the citizens of Undermine, launching a full-scale revolution. Gallywix's attempt to eliminate Gazlowe inadvertently transforms Renzik into a martyr, igniting the conflict.

Gallywix's Uncertain Future

The final boss encounter in the Liberation of Undermine raid pits players against Gallywix. Given the low survival rate of final raid bosses in WoW, Gallywix's chances of survival appear slim. The fate of this self-proclaimed Chrome King remains to be seen, but his reign seems to be nearing its end.
