You can add up to 9 items to the Great Vault each week by defeating raid bosses, completing Mythic+ dungeons, and earning Honor from Rated PvP. Each of the named activities rewards up to 3 items, but as mentioned above, you may select only a single reward per week from all categories.

7.1.

Raids

You must defeat a certain number of raid bosses each week in the current raid tier to unlock items in this category. Note that killing the same boss on different difficulties does not count as two bosses.

  • Defeating 2 Fated raid bosses each week rewards 1 item choice.
  • Defeating 5 Fated raid bosses each week rewards 2 item choices.
  • Defeating 8 Fated raid bosses each week rewards 3 item choices.
7.2.

Rewards

In this section, you will learn how the rewards are calculated and how to get better loot.

  • Raids: The item level of rewards in this category is based on raid difficulty. You can unlock better loot by defeating bosses in Fated Raids on higher difficulties.
  • Mythic Dungeons: The item level of rewards in this category is determined by the lowest level of your top 1, 4, or 8 dungeons for that week. Let us assume you completed 8 dungeons and unlocked all 3 item choices. Your 8 runs for the week are: 14(1st), 13, 11, 11(4th), 9, 7, 7, 7 (8th). The Great Vault would then offer you Item Level 275 (Slot 1), Item Level 268 (Slot 2) and Item Level 259 (Slot 3) loot based on your 1st, 4th, and 8th run. The item level increases when you complete higher-level Mythic+ dungeons.
  • PvP: The item level of rewards in this categories is based on your highest bracket win that week.
