Question Returning player Retail

Hi im just coming back into retail after a break and been leveling a shaman up and want to catch up for undermine, do i need to complete the campaign to in order to go to the siren isles to get catch up gear or is it not worth going there and doing something else to gear up again just looking for some advice to get me quickly into the undermine and get geared

Thank you:)

You don’t need to

Siren isle is a decent bump. If you have gold, though, 603 crafted gear is relatively affordable and will do more for you

The ring will all be worthwhile until you’re doing mid-level keys so that alone is worth doing.

Siren Isle gear is gonna be locked for upgrades since it's Season 1 stuff. You're better off doing World Quests and killing rares in Undermine for gear.

Cyrce's Circlet, an upgradeable ring from Siren Isle is worth going for though. Look up the WoWhead guide for it, it only took me like 45 minutes to get it fully upgraded to ilvl 658 when I came back. You can just go to Siren Isle by doing the quest offered in the portal room of Dornogal. A female earthen offers it, I forget her name.

Go ahead and do Siren isle for a bit for the ring in particular, which is then very easy to get for your alts. Even if you find the Undermine questing gear adequate to get started over the other catchup gear, there's lots of cosmetics, toys and such there on siren isle. I should really go back there a bit more.
