Somethings I'd Like To See in Delves Going Forward

As the title says and since it looks like delves are going to be here to stay going forward into the next expansions. I was just thinking of somethings I’d like to see in future delves. And yes, I enjoy delves. I think it’s fun content for soloing and I think the rewards are right where they should be for it.

What needs to improve currently.

  • Probably the easiest thing to say is improving more on the Brann AI. I’ve done follower dungeons strictly for the weekly reputation quest, but there is definitely a night and day difference between the AI in dungeons Vs delves. The times where Brann will run around like a chicken with his head cut off or just auto-attack and do nothing else happens way too often.

  • Take critters out or make them un-targetable in delves. Being stuck in combat with these and trying to figure out with what just gets old, just like in the world when it happens.

  • More rare mobs with more variety of rare powers. Pretty straight forward. Something I’ve noticed with the past two seasons you run into the same rares with the same powers. Would be great to get more variety.

The one big thing I’d love to see going forward…

  • Add in 3 other NPCs when you go into a delve that you can earn doing delves or related to delve content (ex Quests). You plus 3 others. You can make these NPCs others from the Explorer League or even random NPCs like Gamon, Millhouse, Millificent, etc.

  • New NPCs would have classes, and talents, earn more when they level. Have it similar to the curio options. This would add replayability.

Mainly I’d love to see a system similar to FF14s Trust/Duty Support system in the game, which is where the thought of what to add to the future of Delves came up.

I’d like to see more than 2 mechanics on a boss, especially mechanics that don’t boil down to sidestep.

Having different NPC’s be available to take up the roles of Tank, Healer, and DPS would be better than working out how to make one Class (like Hunter) fit all roles.
I mean, who’d want to be stuck with a Paladin in Delves!

Agree with all of that.

I would like the option to completely bench Brann and in exchange get a buff, more damage or whatever your role needs. I’m kinda over the AI pulling extra stuff and it will never not pull stuff unless they make Brann stay glued to your behind and hold your pocket, like Rainbow Six or something.

Or maybe have a button you can click that makes him follow directly behind you in stealth or something and doesn’t break it until you toggle the button. I feel like this should already be a feature, but they aren’t good with features I noticed.

I’d like to see them add further difficulty since they kinda killed the challenge this season lol
