Shipping and Handling Event
Get ready to unleash your D.R.I.V.E vehicle and dive into the chaotic, hilarious, goblin-fueled world of Shipping and Handling, a brand-new activity introduced in Patch 11.1! This mode is exclusively tied to the Undermine zone and is far from a simple delivery quest... it’s a full-blown adventure! Let's go over all the details and rewards.
Indice
How to Get Started
To participate, you first need to unlock the D.R.I.V.E vehicle, which becomes available upon reaching Chapter 2 of the story. Once you've reached this milestone, your D.R.I.V.E will gain an extra action button. Press it and BOOM! You’re officially in the delivery business. Welcome to the goblin gig economy!
How It Works
Once the activity is activated, you'll receive radio notifications about tasks that need to be completed in the bustling streets of Undermine City. A guiding arrow icon above your head will lead you to your destination.
But beware! This isn’t just about delivering packages. The tasks are as wacky as the goblins themselves. Here’s a taste of what you might encounter:
- Strike a pose with a fruit for a goblin artist’s masterpiece.
- Help an old goblin cross the street (watch out for speeding carts!).
- Deal with bullies or help brainstorm a name for a new invention.
- Serve hotdogs to hungry customers or clear out pesky slimes.
- Fish up a creature that swallowed someone’s prized possession.
- Sort trash, because even goblins need recycling heroes!
- Deliver packages... if you’re lucky!

Why Do It?
You might be thinking, “Why should I do grunt work for goblins?” Here’s why:
Surge Pricing: The Community Hustle
Every hour, at 30 minutes past the hour, a special event kicks off that lasts 10 minutes. If you're already in "Shipping and Handling," you'll automatically join.
During this event, the entire player community must complete tasks to fill up a progress bar. Every checkpoint unlocks chests containing rewards such as:
- Weathered Crests,
- Valorstones,
- Other surprises!
Additionally, every completed task contributes to a weekly quest that grants a significant amount of Reputation, helping you climb the Renown ranks.
Job Streaks: Keep the Momentum Going!
On the right side of your UI, you’ll see a Job Streak bar that tracks how many tasks you’ve completed consecutively.
- 10 tasks in a row = 2 Weathered Crests and Valorstones.
- At Renown 12, you unlock Master Negotiator:
- After 10 tasks, you’ll receive 5 Carved Undermine Crests instead.
- You can farm these crests until you hit the weekly cap!
The Rewards: Transmogs, Pets, and Mounts
If you’re a collector, get ready for a loot fest!
Every 10 completed tasks, you’ll have a chance to obtain:
- Green Transmog Set (cloth, mail, leather, and plate).
- Breakneck Cabbie Coat, a goblin taxi driver’s jacket.
- Pets like Mutt and the Personal-Use Sapper.
- Exclusive Mount: Violet Goblin Shredder!
At Renown 12, your chances of obtaining these items increase. So keep those wheels turning!
