^Ditto for Priest^
Pretty much why I’m just chilling at 8s ATM
If it has more runed crests than an 8 I’d be farming 9s right now. 
Supposedly Disc is workable, but I haven’t tried it myself so I’m just taking it on faith.

As a priest, Dominate Mind really goes a long way. Very few enemies in delves are immune to it. Basically any caster is a good choice or any of the ‘big’ mobs. Just can’t really use mobs tied to objectives, since they still have to be killed in order to progress.
they are not easy as some would say on higher delves solo you take your time
and to get the vault to requester they tier 8 delve you need to fill all 3 slots dont know if its a bug but after i unlock the first slot i did a 8 bountiful and it was not updated.
after i filled all 3 slots and did a 9 bountiful it was updated for the tier 9 delve
I thought it was fine?
Oracle adds a bit more oomph to your ST damage while Archon gives you good AoE dps with surge procs for emergency heals.
Even soloing all the way to 8 it wasn’t bad, just need to be smart about your pulls and utilizing your kit, stuff like Dominate Mind puts in A LOT of work.
If anything, I wasn’t having fun as disc which I’m sure is a skill issue on my part. I just vibe with Holy a lot better.
The delve slots work the same way as the dungeon slots do, except that the first slot is two clears instead of just one. Each slot’s reward is based on the lowest of the highest runs that count towards it. In other words, for the first delve slot, if you clear a T8 and a T4, the reward will be for T4. You need two T8 clears for the first slot to be T8. Same with the other two slots. Whatever the lowest of your highest 4/8 clears are will be what determines the loot in that slot.

so i just need to do 2 tier 8 for the first slot to be unlocked then?
if thats the case i thought something was bonkers lol but it was me lol
Yeah, you do however many runs are needed to open the slot, and then the reward is determined based on the lowest level of those runs.
It doesn’t help that the vault UI seems to be pretty bugged right now and isn’t really displaying information as clearly as it did back in DF. Dungeon slots say they’re at the ‘highest level’ if it’s filled by a heroic dungeon, delves don’t show a list like dungeon slots do for mythic runs, and my raid slots don’t even have tooltips anymore.

Gear pool is garbage. There’s way too many trinkets so you’ll likely get 2/3 every week. In my actual runs I got about 8 trinkets last week.
What is quite lame is this far into a highly talked about system, you have no clue how to get gear from Delves but think you’re qualified to say you can only get 554 gear from them.
If they nerf Delve rewards, I’m done with this game. I watched now for 5 expansions M+ players get showered in easy loot, and now that people have an alternative to having to do M+, M+ players are getting upset.
Edit: If you are complaining about the reward vs effort for M+, then it sounds like you don’t like type of content.

I’d rather all 3 streams of PvE loot offer ilvl comparable to difficulty.
I think they’re fine. I’m going to attempt a Delve 7 since 6 was not as punishing.
For me it’s not a path into mythic. It fills that niche for me. And if I want to campfire before a pull, I can
yeah, the gear in m+ is too easy to get too. You know who had mythic loot before m+? The top 1% or less of players skilled enough to do mythic raid. You know who has mythic loot now? everyone.
So, then M+ needs severely gimped then, because it still is the fastest way to gear up.
I’m so tired of hardcore spreadsheet warriors optimizing all the fun out of the game. Delves are going to lose out in the end for gearing vs the other pillars.
This is not true, the old raid design was more accessible. Everyone had BIS epics before Ion took over and made WoW’s endgame into this competitive e-sport.
M+ right now feels adequate for Heroic Raiding now, still prob easier for mythic (but unlikely given I think the first boss in Mythic is easier than Ansurek.)
And m+ was way too rewarding in the past.

Is this a joke??
You had Naxx that so few guilds saw, that Blizzard reused it for WOTLK.
Just like m+ killed raiding this will kill m+. people want to do less work for more reward these days.
Now I HAVE to do delves to be competitive in m+, even at a casual level. M+ has been siphoned of all the casual and non toxic players into delves.

No, they are not.
There are players who only like playing tank and healer specs though, you can’t just alienate classes and specs because “hehe solo player” you need to balance so that everyone can do it. Also, I can guarantee you that if the gear from delves werr stuck at 571, literally no one would do them except for the VERY few players that want a solo dungeon and those people hardly come to the forums so they’d just get tossed in the trash can after the expansion
Oh? Only 8? I finished it off with 14 trinkets last week on my mage. I had about 18-20 keys after I burned through all my echoes and I got only trinkets from every delve and got so frustrated I just saved the remaining 6 keys or so for this week because it’s insane
