What to Focus on This Week?
If you want to get the most out of your Great Vault this week, make sure you switch to your relevant loot specialization and generate loot, but don’t select anything until the day before reset. Run all the content that has a chance to give you the gear you would select from the weekly chest and only open it on the last day before maintenance, so you avoid duplicates.
20th Anniversary Event Content
From within your faction’s portal room, take the Caverns of Time portal to Tanaris to pick up the weekly quests there. Here, you can pick up all the weekly quests for Bronze Tokens and Bronze Celebration Cache of Treasures. Compared to Pinnacle Caches, the chests offer better rewards, which is why you should focus on getting them if you’ve outgrown Veteran gear!
The first weekly cache contains 1 piece of Item Level 597 Champions gear from the Blackrock Depths raid and a Restored Coffer Key for Delves.
How to Earn Bronze Celebration Caches?
Currently, there are three weekly quests you can complete to receive your Bronze Celebration Cache of Treasures.
Codex of Chromie Weekly Quest
Complete the Codex of Chromie Scenario for 1 Bronze Celebration Cache of Treasures and 3 Bronze Celebration Tokens!
Korrak’s Revenge Weekly Quest
Pick Soldiers of Time from Izaik Kadarov. Queue up for Korrak’s Revenge from within the Honor tab (H-key by default). Earning 500 Honor will net you 5 Mark of Honor, 1 Bronze Celebration Cache of Treasures, 1 Glorious Contender’s Strongbox, 3 Bronze Celebration Tokens, and 100 Timewarped Badges.
Tanaris World Boss Quest
Finally, there’s a quest you can get from Izaik Kadarov to kill all 3 Tanaris world bosses (Doomwalker, Sha of Anger, and Archavon). This will yield 1 Bronze Celebration Cache of Treasures and 3 Bronze Celebration Tokens!
Blackrock Depths Raid Quest
Killing the final boss Emperor Dagran Thaurissan will net you another chest and even some gear-upgrading materials!
This week, you can also pick the Classic Timewalking weekly from Bobadormu.
Khaz Algar Content
Focus on completing the 2 Special Assignments for the Seasoned Adventurer’s Cache. Twice per week, a zone will have a Special Assignment that requires you to complete a few World Quests to unlock.
When you pick up all the weekly quests in Dornogal, see if Theater Troupe isn’t up. If it is, complete the event, if not, immediately head to the Ringing Deeps.
In Gundargaz, grab the Awakening the Machine weekly quest in Gundargaz and complete the event.
Do not forget to open the Awakened Cache for rewards.
You can pick the Sniffenseeking weekly from the same NPC. To find out exactly where to pick up these quests, search for blue exclamation point icons on the map of Gundargaz.
Your next stop is Hallowfall. Complete Spreading the Light‘s main objective and activate 4 Lesser Keyflames to receive a Radiant Cache.
After completing all your weeklies, you should now have at least 4 Restored Coffer Keys, so it’s time to focus on Delves, focus on clearing Bountiful Delves for your weekly chest, clear the Nerub-ar Palace raid, and complete dungeons to unlock all slots in the Great Vault for next week. Don’t forget about killing Elites and looting Treasure Chests across Khaz Algar.
Upgrade your gear and complete your 4-set bonus if you haven’t done that already. If you haven’t spent your Catalyst charges yet, you can spend it to convert a non-set piece of gear into a Nerub-ar Palace class set piece of armor.
Make sure to log in with your max-level alts so they get the Catalyst charge, even if you don’t plan to use it immediately.
If you have reached Mythic+ Rating of 1,000, you can purchase account-wide Veteran gear for Valorstones in Dornogal.
