This sounds like some pretty cool stuff, except for this part: "Delves will be included into Seasonal content, giving players rewards for the season such as mounts, pets, and achievements. In addition to this, seasonal NPCs will help with your delving endeavors, with Brann Bronzebeard being given as an example."Sounds like more FOMO to me, something WoW has been distancing themselves a bit with in Dragonflight by bringing back old, removed content and letting new players enjoy it. Whenever something is announced as a seasonal reward I assume it'll be removed when the season ends, and that isn't something to get excited about. I just want content I can enjoy at my own pace and not have to think about what is or isn't going to get removed down the line. Hopefully what they mean here is each season there will be more added to the Delve system, but they won't be removing the previous rewards.
If they can make Delves hard like higher M+ or Raids there is 0 reason not letting them give out high ilvl loot. All the clowns saying its "outdoor" content probably cant grasp than other type of content can be difficult as well. We are not talking about ez mode WQs. Mage Tower were the most challenging content there is in some aspects. Much harder than your single responsibility in a Mythic Raid Encounter or M+. So just make Delves with hard modes give out good loot. Ill happily play them a ton then cause I cant stand playing with all those mouthbreathers in M+ or Raid anymore who cant handle the most basic abilities and ruin your key or raid.
While I usually play DPS, I hope this would be cool for healers player since I know somebody who likes playing healers.
I like that I will actually be able to complete a vault reward without having to run the nightmarish LFR... My willingness to group ends at w-bosses and outdoor content. So this is amazing for me! (don't get on my case- I'm old, I don't want that stress anymore)I'd really like to be able to run delves with my warband though. 🤞
This is literally nothing new, the game has had some version of that on and off since MoP. Other games have had it as a mainstay for years now.
Sounds like fun - looking forward to it!
I'm all for it except for the fact they said "Seasonal" I don't want content removed and I don't want fomo and feel forced to do it.Also with their new love for season passes, let's hope they don't make a "premium" delve loot we have to pay for.

It will be interesting to find out if it's actually hard enough to warrant endgame loot or if it's just a loot give away mechanism. If it's easy and you get max iLevel loot, why keep doing raid or M+ ?if it's hard, the likely target audience will complain super hard.That balance will be difficult to find.
Sounds pretty much like torghast but without the need of do it for borrowed power
"1 to 4 players" is wrong, it's up to 5 people.
Nelves. Belves. Velves. Delves. I can't see that word without thinking Dark Elves.
