Dungeons

• 8 Dungeons Available:

  • Heroic: ilvl 665, upgradeable to 678; “Adventure” gear (upgrade with valor stones/weathered crests).

  • Mythic 0: ilvl 682 “Champion” gear; once per week per dungeon.

• Summary:

  • Adventure gear is farmable from normals/heroics.

  • Champion gear is a chance from dungeons and world boss.

Delves

• Tiers 1–4:

  • All unlocked week 1; higher tiers must be unlocked.

  • Start fresh—no curios, need to earn them again.

• Crests:

  • Runed & Gilded Crests are gone; now it’s Carved Crests (up to tier 11, tier 11 gives 10 crests).

  • Likely: Tier 7+ gives carved crests, below that gives weathered.

• Rewards:

  • Bountiful Delves & Coffer Chests:

    • Each coffer key chest = 1 piece of guaranteed champion gear (up to 4–5 per week depending on key fragments).

  • Carved Crests from side chests (not the coffer key chest).

    • These are used to upgrade champion and veteran gear.

• Gear Recap:

  • Champion gear: Guaranteed from coffer chests, chance from M0 dungeons and world boss.

  • Veteran gear: Guaranteed from outdoor activity (wriggling box), possibly from caches.

  • Adventure gear: From dungeons and world quests.

Reputation

• Do you need to grind rep?

  • Not really! Only necessary for specific profession items or cosmetic unlocks.

  • Profession Renown 5: Needed for special crafting (vanish potion, best gems for artifact back, etc).

  • Renown 7: Offers a piece of veteran gear, but reaching it in week 1 is tough.

    • If you do everything plus Darkmoon Faire buff and hats, you might barely reach renown 7.

    • Without DMF, you likely won’t make it to 7 in week 1.
      

Key Tips

• Do all 11 side quests, world quests, and outdoor weeklies for max rewards.

• Prioritize key fragments for delve coffer chests—guaranteed champion gear!

• Don’t stress about rep unless you need profession unlocks.

• Check the questline skip situation for alts (may change post-launch).

• Delve tiers 1–4 are open—go for carved crests and champion gear early!

In short:
Week 1 of 11.2 offers a ton of gearing and progression opportunities through outdoor activities, dungeons, and delves.Champion gear is very accessible if you focus on delves and dungeons. Veteran gear comes from specific outdoor activities and possibly rep. Don’t stress about rep unless you’re focused on professions or cosmetics!
