As a fanatic for mage tower style content - I went straight into a +8 Delve after getting full epic PvP gear not expecting much difficulty. I was pleasantly surprised in the “effort” it takes to kill all of the mobs with mini “slayer” tasks killing 50’ish mobs to progress. Also no timer was nice as I was able to tab out on occasion to fix the playlist vibes.
At the end, it felt rewarding to see a big chest I got to open with coins scattered around the ground. My only complaint really is that the loot room looks spectacular, but the actual loot reward felt quite underwhelming. I was hoping to get a bigger gold reward for my time and effort based on difficulty - something more grand and epic that suits more of the major solo bossing content theme. Also, it would feel nice to have the chance on rare toys/mounts or something that is sellable on auction house - sort of like a treasure hunter incentive.
Overall, it gave quite the adventure/exploring feel with that world content I am familiar with from Diablo and Runescape as a kid. Although the delve content is still in its infancy, I can see a great future for this style of content with the modern “solo” gaming style that is trending across all games.
