Vault of Archavon is a raid dungeon found in Wintergrasp Keep. Players may only enter the dungeon while their faction controls Wintergrasp.
Encounters and loot
The bosses of the Vault of Archavon drop a random assortment of gear in a similar style as classic World of Warcraft before the expansions. Class specific pieces can drop for both the PvE and PvP sets. The loot can be all PvP, PvE, or a mix of the two. The loot is completely random and is not impacted by the raid makeup, so it is advantageous to bring a variety of class/spec makeups to increase the likelihood that someone can actually use the drops.
It should be noted that the PvP gear cannot be disenchanted but the PvE can.
Boss | PvE | PvP | Emblems |
---|---|---|---|
Archavon the Stone Watcher | Tier 7 | Deadly Gladiator | 2 |
Emalon the Storm Watcher | Tier 8 | Furious Gladiator | 2 |
Koralon the Flame Watcher | Tier 9 | Relentless Gladiator | 2 |
Toravon the Ice Watcher (NYI) | Tier 10 | ? | 2 |
Achievements
The "Earth, Wind, and Fire" achievement is currently the most difficult achievement for this instance. Even though it only awards 10 and has no associated title reward, this was intentional according to a Blizzard official. [1]
