Power Up With the Voidforge

Help aid domanaar Decimus to build a Voidforge to begin transmuting Nebulous Voidcores, which are transmutable into empowered equipment upon defeating foes in Midnight Season 1 raids or completing Mythic+ dungeons, Bountiful Delves, and Prey Hunts on Nightmare difficulty. Once the Voidforge is constructed, you'll also assist him in crafting the Ascendant Nilhammer to transmute Ascendant Voidcores to empower worthy equipment.

Building the Voidforge

Meet domanaar Decimus at the Howling Ridge in Voidstorm to undertake your first quest for him, "Building the Voidforge". You'll need to collect Elemental Voidcore Shards from Midnight Season 1 raid bosses, Bountiful Delves, and Mythic+ dungeons to begin construction.

You'll need six Elemental Voidcores in order to complete its construction and will be able to track your progress when you visit Decimus.

Nebulous Voidcores

Players can use Nebulous Voidcores to more easily obtain specific equipment whether you are chasing best-in-slot items on your main character or looking to quickly gear up alternate characters later in the season.

Upon defeating a Midnight Season 1 raid boss or completing a Mythic+ Dungeon, Bountiful Delve, or Prey Hunt on Nightmare difficulty, players may choose to spend their Nebulous Voidcores to receive a random item appropriate for their Loot Specialization from that activity. After receiving an item in this way, it is removed from that loot pool until all eligible items have been obtained on a per-difficulty basis.

Example: Receiving the Ranger-Captain's Iridescent Insignia trinket from the Crown of the Cosmos encounter in the Voidspire on Normal difficulty will not remove it from consideration on Heroic or Mythic difficulty. The item level of Mythic+ rewards from Nebulous Voidcores is equivalent to Great Vault rewards from that Keystone level, i.e., Myth 1/6 at Keystone level +10 and above.

Decimus will offer Nebulous Voidcores to the player in exchange for a choice of valuable resources including gold, Voidlight Marl, and Veteran Dawncrests. The total number of Nebulous Voidcores available to a character increases by two every week for the remainder of the season. Due to the smaller loot pools and the exceptional power of raid items, these rewards will require two Nebulous Voidcores upon defeating a raid boss. Other endgame content, such as Mythic+, will cost only one. As a result, acquiring a particularly desired trinket, weapon, or ring is likely to require a similar total of Nebulous Voidcores regardless of source. For example, a player chasing a trinket from a raid boss with three total items matching their Loot Specialization is likely to receive that trinket in the same amount of time it would take to acquire a trinket from a Mythic+ dungeon with six total items.

Players can also purchase a Nebulous Voidcore from Vaultkeeper Elysa for six Thalassian Tokens of Merit. Nebulous Voidcores acquired in this way do not count against the weekly increasing cap.

Ascendant Voidcores

Following the Voidforge's construction, Decimus will ask players to assist him in crafting the Ascendant Nilhammer, a powerful tool capable of manipulating Ascendant Voidcores to empower worthy equipment. Upon completing this warband-wide journey, players may begin acquiring Ascendant Voidcores from Midnight Season 1 endgame content including raids, Mythic+ dungeons, Bountiful Delves, and Nightmare difficulty Prey Hunts.

Consuming an Ascendant Voidcore infuses an eligible weapon or trinket with additional power to increase its item level. Only fully upgraded Hero, Myth and maximum quality Radiance Crafted weapons and trinkets are eligible to become Ascendant Voidforged.

Domanaar Decimus may have ulterior motives, but you'll want to take advantage of the Voidforge to enhance your adventures. Good luck and we'll see you at the forge.
