Loving the content and just want to say delves are a godsend to me and my favorite content. I pushed 3k rating in m+ in the past and to be honest I've grown to hate the toxic nature of challenging group content. Delves are fun and challenging and can be done on my time table and require me to use the full toolkit of my class. Massive W content I just want to be expanded in the future.
I couldn’t agree more. I haven’t been this into WOW since BC or Wrath. I think their analytics will show just how many people play the game like we do and we will see more content like this in the future. Thanks for the support!
Couldn't agree more. I've done most of my delves either solo or with a single other player, and they hit the perfect sweet spot for people that want to be rewarded for progressing in challenging content, but don't have time to commit to groups for dungeons and raids. I was not aware of the Glory of the Delver achievement! So thanks for that info! Cheers!
gz mon! ma prot warr is 609 atm, working on that +11 thingy. i jsut love them delves. the alts havent touched m+ yet. just 4 delves per week per alt at t8 and most of them are above 600 ilvl :) most fun i had was shadow priest with dominate mind. some crazy shenanigans there. i really hope they keep them delves relevant this whole xpack, put some new ones, make aditional stories/routing in each of them with next pathces so we wont get bored. GG!
Sounds like we have a pretty similar journey I have 4 alts sitting around or above that 600 mark. I agree, keep the solo content coming! I think season 2 brings a new companion. I wonder what else we’ll get for delves in season 2.
Love watching your journey. Tip. For underwater delves go to Gadgetan and buy the noggenfogger elixir to turn you undead and you can then breath underwater.
Hey brother Delver, congratulations 🎉 and truly appreciate all the hard work you do for your fellow Delvers. I too run mostly delves after the weekly quests and use your videos as guides. I need help with the Bosses especially the lady in the room with all the frost pillers in the Underkeep. Also how Brann's abilities work or the best ones because some say use him as a healer instead of DPS.
Thanks so much for the support! I run Brann as healer 90% of the time. I do have some footage of exactly how to beat that boss. I'll try to get that in a video soon.
prot warrior have really enjoyed working on solo delves - brann now 42, have 2 toons at 80. I do raid but don;t like M+ that much. 100% in agreement with you. Hope it remains viable as end game content.
I am in your Camp 100%, I love delves. I just came back to Wow after a many year break, just for Delves. hope blizzard expands on Delves a lot more. I hope they don't tune down the rewards, I thought that was the purpose to give solo players more ways to have a Progressive end game.
I'm a new (returning) player and so far I really like delves They are challenging enough to keep you engaged but not too much to put you off. Really happy about this since many online/mmo games make solo content too easy so there is just no enjoyment in doing it I just wish they would balance it a bit more, I complete it just fine on my paladin(usually I use prot), but its so much harder on casters, in fact I wasnt able to complete tier 8 on my shadow priest so far
I agree delves are great! My only real experience is with melee. Tanking seems to be easier for sure but all the melee alts I play can do T8s at about 590ilvl. Thanks for commenting! Good luck out there!
end game sux without contents like this.....still best gear come from raids.....ilvl means nothing without the correct stats....thats the aproche from blizz on this. But, i'm in the same page, love this content and it is FUN
Yeah, I wish we were getting more of the higher tier upgrade crests from delves. Right now the game is forcing me to do high level mythic plus or heroic raids to get any gear level ups.
I personally enjoyed delves more in group than solo, but I found them punitive for healers, both doing it solo or in a group, the scaling highly favoured having one tank and a bunch of dps. They also don't really achieve the "role agnostic" in my opinion, both because of that and because some classes have way better toolkits than others (mostly due to CCs and interrupt mechanics as well as damage mitigation). As an arcane mage, I'm having fun, with a little foresight and planning I can do delve 8, but I can see that the experience is a lot worse for some of my friends.
I honestly think Delves should be a solo only game mode. We already have dungeons and raids that cover the holy trinity design experience. I think the fun thing about delves is the toolkit challenge for each class and how they deal with certain mechanics. It may have something to do with having a high level Brann, but all of my 585+ alts are all able to do T8s but do prove to be challenging in some aspects. Thanks for the support on the video!
@@WraithRPG If it was completely targeting solo play, they would do a better job with tuning probably, as the scaling was really wonky in the first weeks. I personally wish they made a tank conpanion, It would improve my quality of life significantly haha
@@Emyroth We may see one in future seasons, I expect to see Reno, Elise and Sir Finley. I'd think Reno would be a tank. On that note, you can kind of get Bran to tank if you ease your way into dmg after you pull, he does hold aggro sometimes.
Returning to WoW, haven't played seriously since MoP (played a little bit of PvP during BFA for two months and left). Considering the new Warband bank, can I farm Delve gear on an Alt that can do it way easier, let's say a Blood DK or Veng DH and send the rewards to my main Elemental?
All gear is not warband tradeable. However, you do get drops from all content, including delves that is epic and warband tradable but it’s about 15 I levels lower than the your best gear. I have a whole bank full of it. There are faster and better ways to gear your alts than these drops. But they help for filling out some slots.
If they simply make the higher iLevel gear only obtainable through higher tier delve content, but don't nerf the overall iLevel cap that you can acquire through Delves, I think that would be the perfect balance.
If they nerf ilevel from delves, there’s no point in doing them. I’m currently 610, there’s little to no drop from delves and vault is the only thing I can get to upgrade my items. One 616 per week isn’t anything amazing compared to m7 rewards. In fact, they should up the number of crests dropping from delves to actually give them some sort of boost as it’s way too few per delve.
I disagree about tuning them down when it comes to ilvl and rewards. It's time that 'casual' players have a way to show off their talents. The solo player is often looked down upon because they don't do high their group content, let the doubters be forced to do content made for yhe casual player instead of the other way around. Don't look at me to show them what's what, though. I'm struggling to get through sixes on most delves and haven't completed a 7 yet. I'm learning and getting closer every day.
They change delve ilvl, I’m done with wow again. For the time invested and the limit of 4 per week realistically, no one in mythic plus should be threatened by it. You’re basically limited to 606ilvl because your ability to even upgrade the pieces past that you have to heroic raid or mythic+ as 8 crests per week won’t do much for you.
well.. that's sort of true, if you find delvers maps in T8+ from bountiful chests or from Zekvir when he appears, the hidden chests you get using a map reward ilvl 610. You also will get 616 items every week from vault on the delve row. But your point stands. We are bottle necked on upgrade crests and pretty much need Mythic +4 or higher and Heroic Raids to upgrade our gear any further. I'd like to see T9-11 give 606, 610, 616
Almost got this but I can not beat Zekvir and I hope in the future bliz won’t scale back the gear as that would probably be the point I’d drop the game again so they would lose my sub. It’s about time they started catering for the people who actually still have a life outside of the game rather than pandering to the basement dwelling elitist no lifers.
Yeah the community sucks in this game! I love to do challenging things, but I want it to do it SOLO! Or with one friend! Hope they make in the future M+ Solo or Solo Raid! This is the future of Wow with this garbage community
There are still cool people in the community, it’s just hard to find them. Most people already have their 5 man groups or raid teams locked in. It’s nice we have the group finder but having true challenging solo content is a game changer for wow.

The 10/11 tier makes you pull one at a time and pray the mini boss twins/spider boss don’t appear else it’s bricked.
That’s not true. You can defeat all mini bosses! I have guides coming for them soon.

Zekvir just got nerfed. he is very easy on T1. Play a dps spec and set bran to heals, focus the cocoons and you should be able to get this.
