Horrific Visions are back in The War Within Patch 11.1.5, and they’re a great way to get strong gear every week. Whether you’re leveling alts or gearing up your main, Visions can give you Hero-track items if you take on the right challenges. Here’s everything you need to know about how loot works, which runs are best, and how to get the most rewards.
How the Horrific Visions Loot Works
The goal of a Horrific Vision is to complete all the objectives and defeat the final boss. You can further increase their difficulty and rewards with Masks. The more Masks you use and the more bosses you defeat, the better your gear.
You can earn loot once per week per character and per Mask difficulty. This means you can get rewards from several different Mask levels each week on the same character.
What Gear Can You Get?
Here’s a simple table showing what item level you get based on how much of the Vision you complete and how many Masks you use. Keep in mind you can have a maximum of 8 Masks active during your run in Patch 11.1.5, but gear caps at Item Level 658 4/6 Hero-track gear for a full clear with 5 Masks!
Gear Type | Item Level | How to Get It |
---|---|---|
Veteran | 626 | Kill the main boss (Thrall or Alleria) |
Veteran | 629 | Main boss + 1 objective |
Veteran | 632 | Main boss + 2 objectives |
Champion | 636 | Full clear with no Masks |
Champion | 639 | Full clear + 1 Mask |
Champion | 642 | Full clear + 2 Masks |
Champion | 645 | Full clear + 3 Masks |
Hero | 652 | Full clear + 4 Masks |
Hero | 658 | Full clear + 5 Masks |
Bonus Rewards: Gear Upgrade Crests
Each run also gives you crests for gear upgrading, based on how many Masks you’ve used:
- Runs with no Masks -> Provides you with Weathered Undermine Crests.
- 1-2 Masks -> Provides you with Carved Undermine Crests
- 3-4 Masks -> Provides you with Runed Undermine Crests
- 5+ Masks -> Provides you with Gilded Undermine Crests
How to Maximize Your Gear Rewards
- To get two pieces of Hero-track gear each week, complete a full run with both 4 Masks and 5 Masks on the same character.
- A full clear with 4 Masks will give you 1 piece of Hero-track Item Level 652 gear.
- A full clear with 5 Masks will provide you with 1 piece of Hero-track Item Level 658 gear.
