Delve loot is fine as it is.
60 gilded crests, so 2 weeks per piece if you are doing the weekly cap of 31.
I just wish they would tune some of the trinkets to be useable since there’s a few that have pretty cool effects. Like not asking for BIS here but you shouldn’t be actively griefing yourself by equipping them. For example, I have that Healing book on my Hpal at max level and my S1 H Gruesome Syringe still does 4x the healing of that book.

The gear seems decent for what the content is. My problem is the crest cap is too harsh and the stupid key farming every week just to be able to play them is stupid at this point. I didn’t mind it at first but now we are months on. Yeah you can buy them… at the expense of not getting the other items from that vendor which feels bad.
I have a leech hero track funhouse lens I probably won’t replace the rest of the season because I have little desire to grind the mythic raid for the only two trinkets that could possibly be better. My shaman has the mechano-core amplifier, which is also near irreplaceable.
the gear itself isnt so bad, although it would be fun to have things like delve set pieces or weapon procs or something. the mogs for delve gear are…meh at best.
Through delves alone you can get full mythic tier appearance (and heroic/normal/LFR).
Pretty epic imo.

I’m curious to know your alt’s ilvl
Why do you feel this way?
Did a valley girl make this thread? Like, actually, umm.
Delve loot is fine. It’s got its own set of trinkets and rewards up to heroic gear through the vault and maps.
It doesn’t need anymore or any less gear, it’s just right.

It’s a Holy Priest at 658.
(and she got lucky enough to get the Funhouse Lens trinket which is really good for Holy Priests)
Did they get rid of fatewaver’s needle or w/e?
Delves are too easy to award hero tracker let alone mythic crafted gear.
In a game that’s designed around rewarding gear based on difficulty that’s a problem.

It really isn’t.
Mythic crafted piece every two weeks and two hero track items guaranteed a week for how easy they are is a bit absurd.

And I disagree, I think the difficulty is just right for T8s. Tanks are a bit of an exception, but they will always trivialize solo content.
But I’m not going to get into it with you because you are always on the hard opposite side of the spectrum when it comes to delves and their rewards. There’s no changing your mind, so I’m just going to disagree with you.

Just right, based on what?
You have to look at what else also offers similar rewards.
If WOW was solely based around delves, then sure, but it isn’t.

IDK what you even use healing trinkets for. I’ve had more than enough healing power for weeks. I use DPS trinkets (or ambiguous ones) on my druid. I currently use funhouse lens and turbo drain 5000.
I got a Dr scrapheal heroic, and it just sits in my bags in case I decide to do group content at some point. The extra healing isn’t going to give me more DPS uptime realistically, and it’s not going to save anybody’s life, so I just don’t see the value.
Mostly my own group of friends experiences, especially as DPS. People claim that a drastically low item level can blaze through T8s, yet it takes me 30 minutes just to get to the checkpoint not to mention finish on 584 alts.
For people who are experienced raiders and mythic + progression players it will feel easier. You have a skill cap much higher than the average player. But for people like me and my friend group it is a challenge to get through.
And that’s what delves were for, solo players looking to have a sense of progression and progress. 1 - 2 (maps arent guaranteed) heroic track items a week is not overkill. And I’m not sure where the mythic track crafted item comes from? I thought the sparks capped out at 645ish which isn’t mythic track and those cost a lot of time/gold to get the mats for.
Regardless delves are fine as they are in my opinion, and right now blizzard agrees.
But this isn’t what you should compare to. You need to compare with content of equal rewards.
Like heroic raiding, and m+6. (Because maps exist and vault.) And if you can’t do the other content, then delves are too easy.
I mean Fungal Flute from last season had an interesting effect, part of the cantrip involved doing DPS while healing on the side.
Dr. Scrapheal is just useless and hardly procs from my experience, I don’t even see it being worth using in group content imo.
