Now that Gilded drops from +8, we may as well release the floodgates and allow Delve goers to experience some economic prosperity with crests.
What’s the harm?

I’m not certain if I agree with the crests part, but Blizz does need to give some sort of carrot for tier 9, 10, and 11 delves. Otherwise they are a one-and-done for the achievement.
I’ve cleared up to tier 11 with lives remaining (not this toon), and once I get the achievement for doing all delves at 11 with no deaths, I’ll never do it again. There’s no point unless Blizz adds some incentive.

Nahhh we were clearing those at 590-597 and I ain’t no prodigy. I got my own last name wrong like 3 weeks ago.

Thanks for letting us know.

I have not even touched a 9,10, or 11 delve because I see no reason to so far. I only clear the 8s for easy vault.

Yeah those should give us gilded crests and drop hero gear at the end of the delve, and zekvir ?? Should give us vault mythic gear

Sure, why not.
I’d rather delves drop them than M+.

trust me, I’m the world’s biggest m+ hater, but delves are some of the least fun content on earth. Tier 11 delves are actually so boring. Pulling one mob at a time and using all CDs, forced to interrupt every single cast or death. Find a way to avoid the elite mobs that spawns on 9s and above, and if it’s a map where you can skip it you just have to quit and try again and get better rng.
Delves are literally all the worst parts of m+, while being as boring as a world quest

I didn’t know it was that crazy for classes without tank specs. Sounds hectic!
Maybe I am wrong - perhaps they should give a few.
Glided crests or something else, an incentive to do higher than T8 would be nice.

Why is the only incentive in the game gear and crests now? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. Literally how is the renown tracks for each of the main reps filled with crest garbage and valorstones???!??
Is this game now just a seasonal gear collection simulator? A Minecraft server lobby between mini games? Where the hell is the world of Warcraft?

Bro, calm your boxers.
As for the seasonal gear collection part, hasn’t it always been like that?

They’re more fun than M+.
Because 8 years of the entire game being designed around M+ has warped everyone’s minds.
It’s possible that the permanent damage to WoW that M+ has caused is irreversable.

Those are still too easy to justify gilded crests I think, unless it was 2-3 per run, in which point it would be taking forever to actually get enough to do anything with.
But still, I’ve done 11 delves without deaths and nothing in there compares to the difficulty of the other ways to get gilded crests.

M+8 is also too easy to justify Gilded, but Blizzard caved in to the M+ whining anyway, like they always do.
(Just like we all knew they would.)

You need to clear tier 10 to do zekvir ?? difficulty for 4 different rewards. Tier 11 with no deaths awards a title.
I guess it wouldn’t hurt, honestly. It’s far too slow for any M+ or raider to farm that way, but it would give some sort of reason for doing those tiers. Currently there’s no reason I’m aware of other than achievements.

People will feel “forced” to run them.
Those levels are for bragging rights only and Delves are not supposed to be used as a way to farm higher ilevel currency.
Nobody will be “forced” to run them, just like nobody is currently forced to run them to get any other tier of crest. It’s by far the worst way to acquire crests.

Put anything of higher progression into world content and people will absolutely complain that they have to do it to maximize for their progression content.
Delves aren’t meant to supplement progression content. They’re meant to be lower on the ladder. On purpose.
