The Great Vault in WoW Midnight Season 2 gives your character one weekly reward selected from up to nine gear choices earned through Raid, Dungeons and World activities. Unlocking more slots improves your selection, but you still claim only one final reward per character each week.
Fast answer: for Mythic+ gearing, one +10 unlocks one item level 318 Myth 1/6 option. Four +10s give two 318 choices, and eight +10s give three. Heroic Raid also unlocks 318 Myth 1/6 rewards, while Tier 8+ Delves and Nightmare Prey cap the regular World row at 305 Hero 1/6.
You do not need to fill all nine slots every week. The efficient strategy is to maximize the rows containing items your character actually needs.
Great Vault Season 2 at a Glance
2 / 4 / 6 bosses
Best for Tier pieces, raid weapons, trinkets and boss-specific loot. Heroic already unlocks Myth 1/6 Vault gear.
1 / 4 / 8 runs
Best repeatable gearing row. +10 gives the maximum standard Dungeon Vault reward: 318 Myth 1/6.
2 / 4 / 8 activities
Delves, Prey and other World activities. Tier 8+ Delves and Nightmare Prey reach 305 Hero 1/6.
| Great Vault Row | 1st Choice | 2nd Choice | 3rd Choice | Standard Maximum |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Raid | 2 bosses | 4 bosses | 6 bosses | 334 Myth 6/6 from standard Mythic raid; eligible special loot can reach 344 |
| Dungeons | 1 dungeon | 4 dungeons | 8 dungeons | 318 Myth 1/6 from +10+ |
| World | 2 activities | 4 activities | 8 activities | 305 Hero 1/6 |
Where Is the Great Vault in Midnight?
The main Great Vault is in the neutral bank area of Silvermoon City.
- Neutral Great Vault: /way #2393 50.2 66.2
- Horde bank Great Vault: /way #2393 71.8 65.1
You can inspect your current progress without travelling to the bank through the Adventure Guide and its Great Vault interface. Visit the physical Vault after the weekly reset to generate and claim your reward.
Mythic+ Great Vault Rewards
For Mythic+, the three Dungeon rewards are determined by your highest, fourth-highest and eighth-highest completed keys. The order in which you completed the dungeons does not matter.
Your first Vault choice.
Your second Vault choice.
Your third Vault choice.
Midnight Season 2 M+ Vault Item Levels
| Key Level | End-of-Run Gear | Great Vault | Track |
|---|---|---|---|
| +2–3 | 295 | 305 | Hero 1/6 |
| +4 | 298 | 308 | Hero 2/6 |
| +5 | 302 | 308 | Hero 2/6 |
| +6 | 305 | 311 | Hero 3/6 |
| +7 | 305 | 315 | Hero 4/6 |
| +8 | 308 | 315 | Hero 4/6 |
| +9 | 308 | 315 | Hero 4/6 |
| +10+ | 311 | 318 | Myth 1/6 |
+10 is the Season 2 Vault breakpoint. +11, +12 and higher remain valuable for rating and high-key progression, but they do not increase the ordinary Dungeon Vault reward above 318 Myth 1/6.
Do You Need Eight +10s?
No. The correct number depends on how much weekly choice your character needs.
One 318 Myth 1/6 option. Excellent for minimum weekly maintenance.
Two 318 options. Usually the best balance of time and reward selection.
Three 318 options. Best when your character still has several meaningful upgrade slots.
Example: Mixed Mythic+ Keys
Suppose your eight highest runs are:
+10, +10, +9, +9, +8, +8, +7, +6
- Choice 1 uses +10 → 318 Myth 1/6.
- Choice 2 uses the fourth-highest key, +9 → 315 Hero 4/6.
- Choice 3 uses the eighth-highest key, +6 → 311 Hero 3/6.
Another +10 can push one of the weaker completions out of your top eight and improve a lower Vault slot.

Raid Great Vault Rewards
The Raid row unlocks at 2, 4 and 6 qualifying boss kills. You do not need to clear the entire Venomous Abyss to unlock all three Raid choices.
| Raid Difficulty | Great Vault Reward | Item Level |
|---|---|---|
| Raid Finder | Champion 1/6 | 292 |
| Normal | Hero 1/6 | 305 |
| Heroic | Myth 1/6 | 318 |
| Mythic | Myth 6/6 | 334 |
| Eligible Very Rare / late Mythic loot | Special high-end reward | Up to 344 |
Heroic raid is unusually valuable in Season 2. Direct Heroic boss loot remains Hero track, but a qualifying Heroic Raid Vault reward starts on Myth 1/6 at item level 318.
How Mixed Raid Difficulties Work
Each Raid slot evaluates the highest difficulty on which you reached its corresponding boss threshold.
If you kill 5 Heroic bosses and 8 Normal bosses:
- the 2-boss choice can be Heroic quality;
- the 4-boss choice can be Heroic quality;
- the 6-boss choice remains Normal quality because you did not kill six qualifying Heroic bosses.
This makes pushing your highest realistic difficulty to the next 2/4/6 breakpoint more valuable than clearing unrelated lower-difficulty bosses only for volume.
Delve & World Great Vault Rewards
The World row counts qualifying activities such as Delves, Prey, zone events, weekly quests and assignments. It unlocks at 2, 4 and 8 activities.
Basic events count at lower reward quality. Higher-tier Delves and higher-difficulty Prey are what increase the item level of the World choice.
Delve Great Vault Item Levels
| Delve Tier | Bountiful Reward | Great Vault |
|---|---|---|
| Tier 1 | 266 | 279 Veteran 1/6 |
| Tier 2 | 269 | 282 Veteran 2/6 |
| Tier 3 | 272 | 285 Veteran 3/6 |
| Tier 4 | 276 | 289 Veteran 4/6 |
| Tier 5 | 279 | 292 Champion 1/6 |
| Tier 6 | 282 | 298 Champion 3/6 |
| Tier 7 | 292 | 302 Champion 4/6 |
| Tier 8+ | 295 standard | 305 Hero 1/6 |
Tier 8 is the regular Great Vault cap for Delves. Tier 9–11 remain useful for progression, Mistcrests and other rewards, but they do not raise the standard World Vault item above 305 Hero 1/6. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="1"}
Prey Great Vault Rewards
| Prey Difficulty | Regular Reward | Great Vault |
|---|---|---|
| Normal | 266 Adventurer 1/6 | 279 Veteran 1/6 |
| Hard | 279 Veteran 1/6 | 292 Champion 1/6 |
| Nightmare | 292 Champion 1/6 | 305 Hero 1/6 |
See the Season 2 Delve Loot Table for Bountiful rewards and progression tiers.
Can Great Vault Rewards Be Tier Set Pieces?
Yes. Great Vault gear choices can roll Tier Set pieces, including Dungeon and World choices. This makes the Vault particularly valuable when you are missing a piece for your 2-set or 4-set bonus.
Do not automatically claim the highest raw item-level armor piece. First check whether another choice completes an important set bonus or whether an eligible non-set piece can be converted with the Catalyst.
Nebulous Voidcore: When Should You Take It?
Nebulous Voidcores are Season 2 bonus-roll items. Once the Season 2 bonus-roll system is unlocked, you must have at least three Great Vault gear choices during that week for the direct Voidcore alternative to appear. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="2"}
A Voidcore can then be spent for bonus loot after eligible:
- Season 2 raid or Lair bosses;
- Mythic+ runs;
- Bountiful Delves;
- Nightmare Prey Hunts.
Taking the Voidcore replaces your weekly Vault gear selection. It is not a free tenth reward on top of your chosen item.
When a Voidcore Is Better Than Vault Gear
Consider it when every displayed item is a minor sidegrade but a specific dungeon or raid loot pool contains several meaningful upgrades. For example, targeting a +10 dungeon with multiple useful trinkets or weapons can have more expected value than taking a disposable Hero piece.
Take the guaranteed Vault item instead when it is a strong permanent weapon, trinket, Myth-track upgrade or a piece completing an important set bonus.
Thalassian Tokens of Merit
If none of your gear is attractive, the Vault can award Thalassian Tokens of Merit.
| Vault Choices Unlocked | Tokens |
|---|---|
| 1 choice | 2 |
| 2 choices | 4 |
| 3 or more choices | 6 |
The Tokens are physical items with a maximum stack of 12. Vaultkeeper Elysa stands next to the neutral Great Vault.
| Reward | Cost | What You Get |
|---|---|---|
| Champion Mistcrest Satchel | 1 | 10 Champion Mistcrests |
| Hero Mistcrest Pack | 2 | 10 Hero Mistcrests |
| Chest of Gold | 2 | 1,000 gold |
| Miasmic Jewelbinder | 6 | Adds a socket to an eligible Season 2 Helm, Bracer or Belt |
| Spark of Tides | 6 | High-end Season 2 crafting reagent |
| Nebulous Voidcore | 6 | One bonus-roll resource |
A socket on a long-term Myth item can be worth substantially more than a small temporary Vault upgrade. The current Token values and vendor options are documented in the Midnight Great Vault system. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="3"}
What Should You Choose from the Great Vault?
- Complete an important 2-set or 4-set bonus if one of the choices does so.
- Take a strong long-term weapon when it represents a substantial upgrade.
- Prioritize a high-value trinket that is difficult to target elsewhere.
- Prefer Myth track over temporary Hero gear when the immediate difference is small.
- Check Catalyst eligibility before rejecting a non-tier armor piece.
- Consider a permanent socket when every gear option is a weak sidegrade.
- Take a Voidcore when targeted bonus-roll opportunities are better than the displayed items.
Best Weekly Great Vault Strategy
1 × +10 plus useful World activities. Secure one Myth Dungeon option without unnecessary farming.
4 × +10, highest realistic Raid difficulty and enough World content to create meaningful alternatives.
8 × +10, 6 Raid bosses and 8 high-quality World activities — only worthwhile when most slots can still improve.
Nine options are not automatically better than six good options. Stop adding Vault activities when the next slot cannot realistically produce something valuable enough to justify the time.
Common Great Vault Mistakes
Only the first Dungeon option uses the +10. The 4th and 8th highest runs determine the other two.
The standard World Vault reward already caps at Tier 8.
Five Heroic kills are not enough for the third Heroic-quality Raid slot. You need six.
Track ceiling, Tier bonuses, trinket effects and socket value can matter more.
A convertible armor piece may solve the Tier slot you thought was missing from the Vault.
Choosing the Vault Voidcore replaces your normal weekly item.
