Delves are the best thing that happened to WoW in a long time. Takes forever to kill each mob, but you're not forced to play with people whose company is cancer that no one would ever choose, and you get decent rewards.

[@mfo6892]

Agree 100%! I love them and want to see more!

[@WayneWatson1]

Yep and follower dungeons. If they had just added good gear to follower dungeons, they wouldn't have needed delves

[@jonathanwynne6925]

I'm surprised every time I hear about toxicity in WoW because I just played LoL for the last year and a half and this game is refreshing comparatively.

[@vautourguy]

Agreed, also love that you don't loose your Coffer keys if you cant finish for whatever reason.

[@kylec3150]

Agreed. I believe mythic raiding should always be the highest challenge for the highest gear. Followed by high mythic+ dungeons. I love the option for peeps like me who are married, have kids, work full time, and don't have the time to dedicate to that. A personal challenge I can do on my own time. I guess I've been lucky. For the most part every run is a piece I need. I did something like 20 delves on my main, and I have champion gear for all but my cloak. For a while I was like i guess it has to give gear that is an upgrade for a slot that isn't at that level. I think I have only received 6-8 pieces that were duos that I just had to vend. Though whenever I get that map the delve I got to seems to always drop the same armor or weapon type. If I use a key it will be gloves and the free 610 piece will also be gloves. Yeah delves need some tuning, but it's supposed to be end game content for heroic equivalent raiding. It shouldn't be too easy.

[@TurtleSodadrives]

As a solo player, wow has never been this good in my opinion. And giving us some higher level gear, makes open world and solo activities more fun.

The others kind of map on to raid difficulties. If 6 was correct, the upgrading should be cut in half. There shouldn't be so much overlap, but that's just me.

[@1337139]

Agreed its the worst part of the expansion for me. The crests are too fucking confusing and even after 3-4 weeks idk what ones I'm even getting

[@COOLAUSTINO]

Wow is in such a good place imo, I haven’t played since legion but I’ve gotten a handful of friends to join up as new players and they’ve been engaging with every kind of content available, and having a blast doing it all. I think that satisfying both a veteran like me and new players in both solo and group content is pretty impressive.

[@WeaselDancingTime]

The only downside to delves for me so far is the duplicate gear drops. If they added and end of run option to trade it for coins or progress this would be fixed.

[@mothman84]

Duplicate drops are to be expected. Sure, when you get the special map for a bonus drop, and then you drop same slot items from both coffers, or even _the very same item from both coffers,_ that's uncool as only Blizzard devs can be uncool. These guys, you've got to understand them, they have awful sex lives, they need to share their misery with us...

[@GhOsT-mb5vl]

As somebody whose gotten like 8 cloaks, I couldn’t agree more.

[@WayneWatson1]

Yep, the dev teams have to take their frustrations out on people, especially solo players. They hate that they have had to make content for us. All they have to do is, give us a coin or some item we can trade in at a vendor for the stuff we want and need.

[@Bronzemanna19]

[@Stefansky2]

hey Kehlani, this is folks; just a heads up - worldsoul is best done with 5 echoes with a raid group, typically 400 valorstones + 2 keys of one such run.

[@TheNudeBrewer]

Also a heads up: using 5 Echoes *often* bugs out. I've run this stupid event 10+ times with my guild in the last week, and at least 9 of them have ended with people saying "wtf, I used 5 Echoes and only got the same amount as people that used 1."

Not sure if you mentioned in the video, but once you equip at least Champion track (I think) gear in all slots you get an achievement which then lets you trade weathered crests for runed.

tip for everyone seeking Crafted Gear! have the gear made in public with rank 1 mats, you can then get it RECRAFTED for less rank 3 Mats. it's way more affordable than getting it rank 5 outright, so if you got your own toons that can craft it you'll only need to seek someone for the recraft.

[@josephflannery9015]

As a healer main, I love delves for my DPS characters. I want to play all classes but suck at DPS in groups. This allows me to gear and challenge myself of those classes I’m not good at.

[@beastlysun]

Delves are very good for solo player and to prepare for raids without dealing with ... difficult people in M+. That is only if you have the correct class and correct spec. When you don't, you need group for the solo content

[@tremas3329]

I like to triple up on Awakening The Machine. Can choose it for the WS Weekly, the Machine quest itself, and the wax guy in Ringing Depths also gives a quest for it, i think all can give a key + the gear you get. Edit: For the flying around to get the weathered crests, it seems the zones that have active World Soul events that use the Radiant Echo's have an increased spawn rate for the orbs you fly through. Havent tested it myself, but has been noted by some guildies.

[@Richard-ys2ns]

[@Ithekro]

The gearing from Delves reminds me of when they added LFG for Heroic Dungeons in Wrath during the Tournament (Tier 9) allowing relatively low level guilds and unorganized solo players to get badge gear. It was enough to allow these groups to get motivated to take on Arthus when T10 came about. CATA's heroics difficulty sort of cramped those groups again, but MoP, WoD, and Legion was suitable for those groups again. Dragonflight and War Within seem idea for solo players and low numbers guilds.

[@lagstorm1]

You can also do the PVP weekly quest from the PVP NPC named Ruffious in Dornagal gathering 100 sparks from disturbed dirt piles in different zones for a piece of 593 champion gear. Do it outside of peak hours and there's a good chance you never even see any PVP.

I was a part of a high level guild way back in the day and got tired of all the bs that came with it. I’ll never go back to group play but will queue up for instances.

[@Telindra]

Delves are marvelous. Especially as a returning player, that has had massive health issues during some of the past couple of years. Essentially stopping me from playing previously, for a long time. Things that have been affecting my executive function skills in a bad way & leading to brain fog (I'm on the recovery journey since more than a year now). So these delves? PERFECT environment for me to slowly rehabilitate, and get my brain accustomed to everything regarding mechanics, awareness, handle keybinds, cooldowns etc again. It is absurd the contrast itself, as I used to be a mythic raider and m+ player, not being limited really. To barely handling Delves on teir 7. Slightly under geared, though. But last week? I had issues with 5's. So I am noticing that I am improving, and honestly? World content wouldn't provide the right type of challenge, and getting into a bit more challenging group content would've been misery. Not only for me feeling bad about the s*it state my ability as a player is in. But also bad for the others, having to carry - which wouldn't truly offer much opportunity to practice/rehabilitate either. If I am just getting an easy mode through others. I know most who enjoys Delves, or find them a nice addition to the game. Won't be in my position. As it is quite different from what most players would be dealing with. But as someone who has basically suffered brain damage. And is trying to recover from that, these Delves are a Godsend. I doubt I would've picked up WoW again if this type of solo play hadn't been there as an option.

[@largejo822]

[@Nyruami]

It´s pretty much mysterious. I completed the heroic raid this week, it took me coordination with 20 other players, devotion, dedication and suffering through hours of tough content and a dozen wipes. This feat gets me 610 gear in the vault. Then I also roflstomped my way through Tier 8 Delves, playing them by practically rolling my face over the keyboard, and that will get me 616 gear in the vault. Beside the Tier-Set there is absolutely no reason anymore to even visit a raid

[@Hauke-ph5ui]

That is the wrong approach. The reason to do a raid should never be just to get gear but to spend time playing the game with your friends. Way too many people forget that spending a fun time in the game is the real reason for playing, not gathering some higher pixel numbers on a screen. Which will be worthless anyway when the next content patch drops because that'll introduce higher item level gear.

dont forget to kill last raid boss in story mode or LFR mode to get your crest. Quest “our chance to strike”. reward is a crest that lets you to craft 619 lvl. just a reminder: no group is needed, no professions are required. you can do it solo and get 619 in 1 hr

[@trancer03]

Personaly i have reached the limit of what a season provides for casual players. I have 3 characters around 610 and 610 is like the "softcap". Now its a slow process of getting to 619 with weekly vault rewards and 2 runed crests per tier 8 delve run and it taking 15 runed crests for upgrading a single item by 3 levels between 610 and 619.

Great vid thanks

This was really a trade off where the made champion/hero track gear MUCH easier to access while at the same time restricting the top tier crests/Myth track gear significantly. Lesser players benefit, top players are unaffected, upper middle players get gut-punched.

Delves are my biggest burden when lvling my alt - I love group content and it’s the reason why I play an mmo

[@MsAudities]

Absolutely loving the fact I can solo. I've always really disliked raids, esp the way they used to be. Some of us just prefer to do things by ourselves (and with our alt army). Honestly, imo they've really hit it out of the park with The War Within (and possibly Dragonflight, I missed most of that xpac sadly). I haven't enjoyed the game this much since Legion. (and I've been playing since Burning Crusade. I would have played vanilla but I was still addicted to Everquest at the time lol)

I find these crests upgrades and crafting system with sparks and whatever so difficult to understand. Even with watching several guides like yours now. But since I play solo and I do tier 8 delves easily by now, I dont need to stress myself gearing up anymore I guess? The only thing that comes to my mind is the Zekvir "Let me Solo him" fight

[@sagetusk]

Just make sure you loot his claw(?) - I didn't know there was anything to loot and I lost out 🥲

[@nojabhere]

Isn't the boss unlocked after you complete level 11 delves? Or am I wrong

[@ReichDerDornen]

@@nojabhere you get a quest in the main hub to defeat him. Once you cleared a level 8 delve, you can enter Zekvirs hideout in azj-kahet. He has 2 levels of difficulty. First one aint that hard. You just have to get used to some unforgiving mechanics. Second one adds some mechanics and as of now with the current delve adjustements to brann, it is rather undoable.

[@mothman84]

There's little to understand, I don't think even the devs 'understand' the system, or they would understand it doesn't need to be so messy. Nobody asked for it. Nobody needs it. Nobody likes it. Bunch of different currencies, with different names, that change every few months. You go to the guy, put the piece in the neat square, and see if you happen to have all the silly crap he wants.

[@VampiresAreRealGuys]

@@mothman84 you are so so wrong. the system could be better sure but most people think it is a huge improvement over the old way, its easier, gives you way more options. if you could just put in the tiniest bit of effort to learn and understand you would see its much better

[@Passi0nf0rmusic1]

I love that the ability to solo is just as viable as going full group route. The only problem is once that solo bottle was opened and that genie let out you’ll never get it back in the bottle . People get a taste of non toxic , self driven , no time limit , and no one to blame but yourself . Who would want to go back to groups? It’s going to literally go very soon in the near future to being a SoRPG because how are you going to make group content more favorable than doing it solo ?

[@gregoryshinn9805]

Thanks for the video

[@Kotosuatz]

The Runed Crests drop from any tier 8 delves not just bountiful so you can farm them for upgrading the hero gear you get from delve bounties

[@tuxedo-cat123]

They should add the companion option to all content of the game (M0, M+, LFR Raid, Mythic Raid, etc)

[@element7202]

Didn’t know that about the orbs wow thanks

[@nabelius3771]

This last shield drop XD i feel your pain...

[@Briansgate]

What all goes in the Optional reagents boxes? I know missives for stats, but what are the other things?

[@Zman-001]

THANK YOU so much.

[@drewtabori8447]

Solo players pay their subs too, so good for them for finally having a chance to gear up at the same rate as the rest of us. I actually don't care how people get their gear, it doesn't affect my gameplay so let everyone enjoy WoW however they choose to play instead of hamstringing them.
