How does GV choose which loot pieces you might get

So, previously, my understanding was that if you did Vault of the Incarnates, and killed a boss, that boss’ loot would be added to the loot table of potential items you could get from the great vault.

In other words, if you had not killed Raz, you would not get any of Raz’s loot from the GV. Once you did, her loot would be on the list of potential items that you could get from the GV in the future, along with that of the other bosses you have killed.

Today, my alt got a tier piece, a helm, from the GV. The helm only drops from Raz, and she has only done LFR, so I was pleasantly surprised to get the piece from the vault without having ever killed the boss.

It does mean my understanding was incorrect though. So, how does it work?

Rolls the dice. Totally RNG

It’s just a large roll of all possible items you can get.

And you can get tier pieces from your m+ rewards as well

It’s like the chance time from Mario Party

Dices are rolled, and someone always ends up angry

But what are “all possible items” is what I meant. Is it just every piece of loot from the raid/all M+ boss from each dungeon loot?

pretty certain the only thing the GV looks at is what ilvl the bosses you did kill drop. meaning if you killed the first handful of bosses but not Raszageth (or Diurna too maybe?) you won’t get the drops from her since they are higher ilvl than everything else in the raid.

You need to defeat a boss at least once for their loot to show up in the Great Vault . Tier sets are exempt from this rule because you can get the pieces from any Mythic+ or PvP slot as well. To unlock items in the raid category, you must:

Hopefully this helps

Bingo tysm

There’s a bunch of gnomes hiding behind the vault door looking through peep holes at your gear so they can give you dupes and giggle about it.

If you put your ear to the vault you can hear them giggling.

Uh if I killed Ras H on my main does it mean gear for Ras H can potentially come in GV for alts?

You’re correct with the exception of tier pieces - they can always drop.
