I know the currency collecting and getting the ring, but is it worth leveling a lot of alts to 80 just to get them out to the island? A lot of the drops I got were for other classes and Warband Bound. I have a couple other 80’s I plan to take out there to farm currency and other things, but not sure I want to rush level my other alts (around 45 sitting at 70 and 6 between 70 and 80) to end up being bored.
I did the main story on this girl, got the ring and a crap ton of gems, plus got the cute Marmaduke pet to boot. I am currently working on the mount, but is there any GOOD reason to go out there with alts?
Feels kind of like when they released Emerald Dream, max level alts get to skip story, collect special currency to exchange for things, then what? I think that’s why DF got boring after a while, after you get what you want, everything else seems like a grind.
The catch up gear is 584, the rares drop up to 603, and the ring is BiS. Outside of that better off in delves/m+ if your main concern in ilvl.
Not sure I’m going to bother much, just the ones I play regularly.
I’m mainly in it for the mogs now, drops and currency purchased.
I don’t do any high end content so the ring is … whatever … at this point for me.
Already got Marmaduke and the mount.
If you did delves before and got the tokens and the delves journal complete you can just buy a full 584 set for 5k undercoins. Island only good for rings and gems. nothing else
Get the ring and a full suite of 584+ gear for like 30 minutes of work. It’s a nice springboard into tier 8 delves

You only need to start the quest and go out there if you did the quests on a main.
You can skip the quests via a dialogue option on alts, keep an eye out for it. The skip gave me the ring, the upgrade token for this week and something else I cant remember. ( maybe the base/first stat gem you get ? )
If you got the gems on your main there are a few vendors in Siren’s that will sell the gems and you can put them in your warbank for alts to use. No need to farm buggy bosses if you already got the gem on a main.
There is a good amt of warbound catchup gear and vendor gear you can buy and it’s pretty affordable, though not the best. Probably good enough for an army of alts though. Worth doing imo if you think you might swap mains for s2 once all the class changes and balancing are out.
I still haven’t even been to the island, so can’t tell you one way or the other. Perhaps over the rest of the weekend.
So is the ring going to upgrade all the way, right away, now that all of the gems are going to be available?
I guess we need to farm currency to get the gems?
Not sure why I need my main to run around there, much less the alts.
The ring itself will upgrade as you progress the siren isle story
