Zekvir's Lair Will No Longer Count Towards Great Vault With Weekly Reset

Live Posted 23 hr 49 min ago by Squishei

So will the upcoming vault tomorrow still provide rewards for Zekvir runs done this last week

With the weekly reset in each region, we’re making the following adjustments to the Great Vault’s unlocks from Delves:

Zekvir’s Lair no longer rewards Great Vault credit.
Addressed an issue with Special Assignment World Quests rewarding additional Great Vault credit.

With the first change, we’re ending the impulse to fill up the Great Vault bottom row via only quick Zekvir runs, and the second change was a bug and was not intended.

Comment by pathofcloudYeah, it was nice to zip it out, but anyone who seriously felt that it was even marginally equal to the time M+ or Raid take to fill those same slots has clearly lost it. Y'all talk about respecting player time but this clearly didn't respect Raid or M+ players time or effort to equivalent reward.

2 and a half hours it's still less time than either other option is likely to take to fill vaults. Do the content or don't, but stop complaining you have to play the game you pay for to get the rewards.

you guys are shizophrenic.Comment by AleccoITT: wow players mad they have to actually play the gameComment by vasseiFun detected instead of giving us more of a reason to do other delves they nerf the $%^& out of this and can i ask whats the point of doing Zekvir’s Lair now besides what a one time ach? Atleast before this you had Zekvir’s Lair for a fast vault and bountiful delves for leveling brann and the unlock bar for Sir Finley. I though you where ment to be a new blizzard over there alt happy not @#$%ing your customers over but no same old $%^&ing lieing #$%^&*!s.Comment by TriveliusGood change. The only people upset about this are the raiders/mythic+ people. Spoiler alert: you don't have to max out every single slot in the vault every week. If you're not having fun doing something then don't do it :)Comment by Marlowe88Revert itComment by akaRavenWhy?
If people can smash Zekvir, they can smash an 8.
Weird change.Comment by Ru88erDucKThis is stupid.
People could choose between zekvir or delves. With this change, you are taking away our choice on how to play. And now there is no reason to visit Zekvirs lair.
You literally just deleted something you have used time to develop just because you want to dictate how we should play your game.Comment by XexjiAnyone seriously complaining about this is a big dummy. 8 Tier 8 delves a week will give you the following:

-A row of three different 616 Hero track 3/6 gear to chose from, which is Heroic Raid level.
-16 Runed Harbinger Crests (2 per delve), to upgrade any piece to 4/6 Hero 619 at max.
-4 separate random Champion 3/8 603 gear pieces, equivalent to Normal Raid level.
-plenty of Carved and Weathered Crests from grinding the four keys you can earn from World Caches to either fast track your lower pieces up to par, or to convert up into more Runed (and eventually Gilded) crests.
-A chance (not great, but I've been getting at least one a week and I haven't been grinding for them) for a Hidden Trove key. Assuming you get one in a Tier 8 Delve, it will give a Hidden Trove in your next Tier 8 Delve, which will reward you with a 610 Hero 1/6 piece... and THREE Gilded Crests. Because of these coupled with the Catalyst in the center of Dornogol, I'm one upgrade away from having gloves equivalent to a fresh BiS Tier Set piece (626 Hero 6/6 as opposed to 626 Myth 2/6) that drops from the MYTHIC RAID, all without taking a single step inside even normal Nerub'ar.

Even by sticking to just the 4 bountiful delves that are up a day, you can obtain all this in maybe... 6 hours over the course of two days? And that's a conservative estimate.Comment by ScarnageBig win, zekvirs count for 8+ was clearly a bug, it's like world boss count as 1 raid boss with no lookout.... don't be silly and play the way it's should be played not how U wanna it to be... if u don't like delves just don't do itComment by AzraelUltimabruh. why. now you have to waste time doing delves. you get 4 keys a week, but have to do 8 delves, instead of just speed running after you used your keys. there is no reason for thisComment by TrumpcatAnyone seriously complaining about this is a big dummy. 8 Tier 8 delves a week will give you the following:

Activision doesn't get their money if we quickly clear the content and log off after all.Comment by lelailaGuys dont panic.. if u like delves. play delves! zekvirs lair 8 times in a row is more boring. other people can stop playing delves. its only 616 hero track vault.. why should u go delves if u get 623 from vault..Comment by ShatamTbf running 8 delves a week is a little bit much. 10-15 mins in a T8 x8 is a good amount of time for a family man with 2 kids like me. Each their own. I'll miss this change for sure.Comment by Darkstar1985Big win, zekvirs count for 8+ was clearly a bug, it's like world boss count as 1 raid boss with no lookout.... don't be silly and play the way it's should be played not how U wanna it to be... if u don't like delves just don't do itComment by Bruseri think its time for a mass quit and never returning wave of ending blizzard so they can play alone their ultra &*!d up game. they killed m+ already and now they kill this !@#$ too. why even open the raid anymore? just close all endgame content blizz clearly hates their players more than anything.
