THE VOIDFORGE
As
Midnight Season 1 begins, players will assist the domanaar Decimus with the construction of the Voidforge as they explore the nature of mysterious Voidcores. This progression is warband-wide. With the Voidforge’s initial completion in this content update, Decimus gains the ability to transmute Void energy into powerful Nebulous Voidcores every week that can be used to acquire additional loot every week and chase specific items over time. After players help acquire a new tool that will allow Voidforge’s power to reach new heights, Decimus will return the favor by infusing weapons and trinkets with greater power from rare Ascendant Voidcores.
Nebulous Voidcores Players can use Nebulous Voidcores to more easily obtain specific equipment whether they’re chasing best-in-slot items on their main character or looking to quickly gear up their alts later in the season.
Upon defeating a
Midnight Season 1 raid boss or completing a Mythic+ Dungeon, Bountiful Delve, or Prey Hunt on Nightmare difficulty, players may choose to spend their Nebulous Voidcores to receive a random item appropriate for their Loot Specialization from that activity. After receiving an item in this way, it is removed from that loot pool until all eligible items have been obtained on a per-difficulty basis. For example, receiving the Ranger-Captain’s Iridescent Insignia trinket from the Crown of the Cosmos encounter in the Voidspire on Normal difficulty will not remove it from consideration on Heroic or Mythic difficulty. The item level of Mythic+ rewards from Nebulous Voidcores is equivalent to Great Vault rewards from that Keystone level, i.e., Myth 1/6 at Keystone level +10 and above.
Upon completing the Voidspire Crown of the Cosmos encounter on Normal difficulty while carrying Nebulous Voidcores, a Marksmanship Hunter would be offered the following Bonus Loot prompt:

This is because, despite the common misconception, not all loot is Hunter loot.Decimus will offer Nebulous Voidcores to the player in exchange for a choice of valuable resources including gold, Voidlight Marl, and Veteran Dawncrests. The total number of Nebulous Voidcores available to a character increases by two every week for the remainder of the season. Due to the smaller loot pools and the exceptional power of raid items, these rewards will require two Nebulous Voidcores upon defeating a raid boss. Other endgame content, such as Mythic+, will cost only one. As a result, acquiring a particularly desired trinket, weapon, or ring is likely to require a similar total of Nebulous Voidcores regardless of source. For example, a player chasing a trinket from a raid boss with three total items matching their Loot Specialization is likely to receive that trinket in the same amount of time it would take to acquire a trinket from a Mythic+ dungeon with six total items.
Ascendant Voidcores Following the Voidforge’s construction, Decimus will ask players to assist him in crafting the Ascendant Nilhammer, a powerful tool capable of manipulating Ascendant Voidcores to empower worthy equipment. Upon completing this warband-wide journey, players may begin acquiring Ascendant Voidcores from
Midnight Season 1 endgame content including raids, Mythic+ dungeons, Bountiful Delves, and Nightmare difficulty Prey Hunts. Consuming an Ascendant Voidcore infuses an eligible weapon or trinket with additional power to increase its item level. Only fully upgraded Hero, Myth and maximum quality Radiance Crafted weapons and trinkets are eligible to become Ascendant Voidforged.
