Delve keys

Now that they semi reset our delve progression to tier 4 in the new patch, does anyone know if our keys carry over?

The experience with other season related features tells me ā€œnoā€ and to expect them to disappear… but that’s only an educated guess.

I don’t expect the keys to carry over.

Keys likely won’t and shouldn’t carry over. We also won’t have the two week pre season period to earn keys and build a stockpile.

I would assume we won’t be able to buy keys like we can now either?

You will probably need to work on the season two delve track

There’s a blue post that Wowhead have copied which says: ā€œYour Coffer Key balance will be reset. Keys cannot be carried over from Season 1 to Season 2.ā€

It’s worth a read for anyone that likes delves, as they recognise a few current flaws, and talk quite a bit about powers you’ll get from the optional fights like treasure wraiths, etc.

I’ll still be skipping such things. Not worth the effort.

I am a bit worried about doing higher levels; I never went beyond an 8 in S1 and I don’t really want to do that in S2 either, but then again I’ll need to if I want to farm gilded crests.

I don’t like the idea of this. Delves at high difficulty are slow and irritating.
I only started enjoying Delves once I had some gear and level 8 was more relaxing to run. So yeah… Not sure what I’ll do in S2…

You can always just not do that and keep doing things you find easy for the rewards they offer.

I think I’ll go into it with the intention of chasing rewards, but if I’m not enjoying it I’ll go back to something else for a while, like trying for Invincible’s Reins and transmogs for a bit.

I’ve done tier 11 delves, but I found it tedious more than fun and challenging, just chipping away at big health pools, then having to recover. Hopefully the gear changes will improve that a bit.

I expect bliz will have to tune / look at them now they’ve put rewards on them. I think they held back in season 1 because they knew it’d be an unbalanced wasteland. Here’s hoping the reason they added rewards now is theyve worked out how to make that not the case.

Well that’s going to feel bad.
This season I went for ā€˜hero upgrades’ and it took a LOT of patience to get to where I am currently. If I know there’s a quicker way to do it, by doing delves, then I’m not going to feel good about doing it the slow way.

You have more faith in it than I do, I guess.

As it is right now Delves offer content for 8 weeks .
The majority of players are casuals and i’m not going to burn out for a mode Like Delves that offer limited content .

While they offer gilded for t11 it requires at least 50 weeks to create the proff item and not talking about the huge amount of money to spend …( I don’t find anyone being that dumb to spend such time to have season 2/3/4 came and restart again )

At the end is not worth investing time and effort in a game that you aren’t progressing at all and people see this .

I’m sorry, what?

You get 21 gilded crests a week in season 2, plus the 15 from conversion once you’re full 4/6 hero or higher. You’re getting a crafted item every other week, which lines up with getting sparks. Also crafting prices were only bad for at best a month, it’s been pittance since then.

Difficulty equates to reward, idk why that’s such a baffling concept.

I think the worst thing in S2 related to delves will be acquiring keys. Doing any of the weekly quests like Awakening the Machine or the Theatre feels appalling now.

You don’t need to apologize …you basically start a dumb example by posting that.
well yes it’s 18 + the map that :point_down:

  • We’ll also limit it so you can only earn one map a week. (even bigger time gated content )

So here i agree. 18+ the gilded crests for the map .

Another thing is that you need to cap the crests in order to unlock the next one …conversion …and mostly to have the heroic gear to cap the runed crests …I’m right ??

With 1 heroic from the vault and possible a second from the map …you will need let’s say 8 weeks …with a perfect …itemization but that’s is like 0.0005% to get 1 upgrade from vault/map.

Ques what ??? i’m like 14 weeks and i have 9 equipped heroic items = vault . (Don’t forget that vault it’s pure rng )

So basically you are getting a crafter item every other week once you start the conversion …and that will happen on average at 15 weeks ???

In 3 month with 21 per week you could craft 5 items ( I wonder …are they going to make the 11 at same difficulty as the m+8 farmville ?? )

Just stick with mythic raiding and m+ …

That’s not what it feels like.
Limiting us to only being able to earn them 3 times per week (6 crests per stash, for a total of 18 crests - just a tiny bit more than 1 single upgrade!) just feels like players like myself are back to being treated as second rate citizens. And all that just because ā€˜the elitists’ get their egos all in a tiffy when ā€˜their content’ isn’t at the top of the food chain.

It’s getting tiresome, tbh.
