Summary

  • Patch 11.1 in World of Warcraft will introduce the D.R.I.V.E. system for a customizable, reactive ground vehicle.
  • Players can obtain the G-99 Breakneck by following a campaign quest in Undermine.
  • The new G-99 Breakneck drifts with Spacebar, reaches speeds faster than Skyriding, has customizable parts, and offers unique activities.

In a recent update, World of Warcraft has unveiled an official sneak peek at the upcoming D.R.I.V.E. system in Patch 11.1, detailing how the new G-99 Breakneck vehicle operates and can be acquired, along with some of its associated activities and enhancements. This exciting driving mechanism will make its way into World of Warcraft upon the release of Patch 11.1, which is expected to drop later this month.

Update 11.1, aptly titled “Undermined,” unfolds within the subterranean Goblin metropolis of Undermine. This update brings a multitude of changes to the game, yet one of the most thrilling new additions in the World of Warcraft patch is the D.R.I.V.E system – short for Dynamic and Revolutionary Improvements to Vehicular Experiences. It’s a personalizable, responsive ground vehicle designed exclusively for the new zone.

Currently, Blizzard has provided players with a detailed insight into how the D.R.I.V.E. system functions within World of Warcraft, and now they can learn how to acquire their very own G-99 Breakneck. In the Undermine region, characters will engage in certain campaign quests, eventually leading them to Gas Grimeshank. Upon meeting him, he assigns the quest “License Not Required,” which grants the initial car upon completion. Successfully finishing this D.R.I.V.E. tutorial quest opens up the Boost function and offers a fully customizable vehicle that can be utilized by all characters on your account.

World of Warcraft Patch 11.1 D.R.I.V.E. System Explained

In contrast to other mounts, the G-99 Breakneck is managed differently, but with some significant variations. Instead of jumping, you use the Spacebar on your keyboard for drifting, which enables the vehicle to navigate tight corners, bypass adversaries, and build up the Turbo Gauge. This gauge, when combined with Boost, propels the vehicle at speeds faster than Skyriding. A notable advantage is that the indestructible G-99 Breakneck doesn’t get dismounted or damaged upon collisions with obstacles.

As a devoted fan, I’m thrilled about the multitude of personalization choices this fresh ride offers! While certain aspects are more aesthetical, such as choosing the hue of my wheels or the melody of my horn, other elements significantly alter its performance: the Engine impacts top speed and acceleration, Wheels determine handling while drifting, and Turbo influences the cost and intensity of Boost. I can uncover these distinct components in Undermine, with rare finds and treasures hidden there as well as from specific vendors, such as the Cartels of Undermine Renown faction from the latest expansion of World of Warcraft.

Apart from competing in races that can be done both forward and backward with this vehicle from the World of Warcraft universe, drivers also have the option to accept Shipping and Handling jobs given by Nanny Tallulah. These jobs can either be completed directly or remotely using the Personal Caddy Caller. This vehicle is a valuable source of Valorstones, Crests, and Resonance crystals, with even more obtainable during the hourly group Surge Pricing world events. The D.R.I.V.E. system serves as an alternative way to collect both cosmetic and gear-related currencies.
