It's called progression

Bountiful Delves, 4 Keys per week, time gated reward for Champion Gear via RNG. Champion Gear is NOT Heroic Raid item level, it is NORMAL RAID item level. You get a change at Heroic Raid item level via your Vault which is also heavy RNG, usually which give higher level than the content you do. It cannot give Myth.

I mean if you want to split hairs, cool I will too.

Every single spec in the game can solo a level 1 delve.

There ya go. I can do intellectual dishonesty too.

Nope! I wasn’t wasting gold on enchants and I have no useful combat potions to use yet, as my Alch is apparently useless and I’m learning crap that really isn’t relevant to anything. “You can go invis!” Gee. Thanks. :expressionless:

But…

I’m not complaining. I plan to take all season to level Brann and make my way through these.

Let me know when you can solo a t8 as a holy priest. Then ill eat my words

Why wasn’t it designed for me? I’m doing it and having a fun time with it.

Pretty sure every spec can solo them at ilvl 610 too. You can’t act like the vault rewards aren’t part of the reward system.

We can all be monkeys about it, every spec in the game can do a +8 with 560il and no deaths if they are willing to waste an hour letting Bran do it for them.

Does not mean it is good or acceptable.

I did them solo as Disc, Holy would probably be easier. It is not about being good at the game, having young genes, a gaming headset or any of that, the only thing that matter is is how much time you are willing to waste waiting around.

Wasting gold on enchants is probably the main thing I do with my gear. :sweat_smile: Always been that way though. I rarely have gem slots to work with so that saves me some gold right there.

because if you’re abandoning it tuesday because you’re running off to raids or mythic+ then all you were doing it for was easy gear upgrades, not because you found it something fun enough to do for the sake of it being fun

I won’t enchant until I have gear that I’m going to be using for a while. Half this crap I won’t be and I don’t want to buy more enchants.

I’m willing to play shadow (did mage tower spriest both Legion and Timewalking) but it is currently impossible for spriest to get the void airship and I don’t see gear helping the class specific issues.

Personally, I still maintain the Kanrethad fight for the green fire quest (back when it was current and actually scaled properly, at least) as the absolute best example of difficulty vs reward in the game, and I wish they’d go back to that sort of model for difficult solo content

Partially because it will have a special place in my heart as having the title is what I consider my single greatest personal achievement in this game, but also because it was just a damn good fight and I’m so sad that it hasn’t worked right for years…

Also the brawler’s guild

I never bother until they are epics that I plan to use for a while. It’s largely wasted on blues unless the enchants are super cheap. Usually not the case this early in the expansion.

It is a balance issue, this was sold to us as solo content and every spec in the game should be on a reasonably even playing field.

If only the felhound sniffer cheese did not exist to trivialize that fight if you had perfect timing, it was a very fun fight though.

Even through the suffering i do have champion and hero tier gear on my main so Im slightly okay with it. My alts will just have to surf around t5s to 7s til wow decides to figure out what kind of identity they want these delves to have.

Yep! And that’s where I’m at: mostly blues. Hehe.

honestly my disc priest could be 730 ilvl and I wouldn’t stand a chance in hard mode zekvir in the state it’s currently in for disc specifically

Heck, I don’t think I can do it as shadow with a full set of myth track gear.

Disc has MASSIVE holes in its toolkit that Blizzard needs to specifically account for in Delves, it is the only spec that is as bad off with lack of interrupts and CC.

It have no doubt that it is possible, probably even at il600, but the margins would be so slim compared to other specs that it is a failure on Blizzards end.
