Because Delves are extremely over-rewarding. You should be at least a teenager, you know how to read.
Delves also go beyond rewards. For many people, delve gear is going to be required to reach those tiers above gear rewards. If “they can get it in heroic raids or M+” can apply to delves, then “they can get it in delves or heroic raids” could apply to M+.
There really isn’t a reason to expect that a form of content with a vault track would fit that criteria.
Okay, and? You want to take gearing options away from them too?
Just play the game.

Just because someone is bad at the game doesn’t mean that trivial content should give them heroic raid level drops.
You’re exactly the type of person I thought.
Yes, that would be better.
Can just do preferred activities (m+)
But they aren’t. If you push anything beyond normal raiding, delves become irrelevant after the first week. A system so rewarding, as you claim, wouldn’t be rendered useless to any person pushing M+ and/or raiding so quickly lmao

Okay? What does that have to do with calling out the fact that some portion of M+ players run content beyond the point where rewards stop?
The issue is not everyone plays at the top level.
AOTC is not top level play lol
They are over-rewarding. For the difficulty of a heroic dungeon they drop heroic raid level loot.
AOTC raiders have their gear progression trivialized by delves.
No they don’t, unless you have biblical levels of RNG. Raid drops so few items most people are going to need a month or more to reach the point where delve gear won’t be valuable. To say nothing of the hero gear from vault and maps.
It’s really not any harder to join a heroic pug and down the first four bosses than it is to clear 4 delves for a hero vault anyhow.
People are really blowing out of proportion how difficult H raid is compared to T8s.
T11s are harder than the first half of the raid on H and some don’t think you should even get a hero vault until then.

Well it’s a good thing all you can do is pontificate with the rest of us nobodies on a message board almost no one reads about how this game ought to be, instead of actually being able to make decisions on the games direction.
Meh, this would be to a minimal effect.
Difficulty of delves should be adjusted. Max difficulty right now is trivial at best.
Translation:
Obviously the better solution is to nerf delves into irrelevancy because solo players don’t deserve to get gear.

Don’t confuse farm status with prog.
But if the content you do is fine and rewarding enough, why do you care? Play the content you want and stop worrying about optimizing your gear acquisition lol
High-tier delves are on par with the difficulty of the first wing of a heroic raid.
Which is to say, braindead easy lol

Consider literacy. I’ve been advocating for T8s to be an actual challenge, around the level of current T11s, with the lower difficulties adjusted to match. Or just shifting the rewards up to T11s and leaving T8s as they currently stand but with champion vault rewards.
