The Great Vault resets with your region's weekly reset: Tuesday at 8:00 AM Pacific on Americas and Oceanic realms, and Wednesday at 4:00 AM Central European Time on EU realms. Asian regions roll over on Thursday. That same moment refreshes your vault options for the new week and deletes any reward you never claimed from the last one.
The reset follows your realm's region, not the clock on your wall. If you live in Berlin but play on a US realm, your vault flips Tuesday afternoon your time, not Wednesday morning.
| Region | Day | Local reset time |
| Americas / Oceanic | Tuesday | 8:00 AM Pacific (11:00 AM Eastern) |
| Europe | Wednesday | 4:00 AM Central European Time |
| Korea / Taiwan | Thursday | Early morning, server time |
Everything weekly moves at that one timestamp:
- Your unclaimed Great Vault reward from last week disappears — claim it first, always.
- Your new vault slots unlock based on what you cleared during the past week.
- Raid lockouts clear, so you can re-run the same difficulty.
- Weekly quests, world boss lockouts and weekly currency caps refresh.
- Your Mythic+ keystone drops to the season's base level if you never used it.
Do I lose my Great Vault reward if I don't pick it up?
Yes. The vault holds one week's rewards, and when the next reset lands, the old selection is replaced by the new one. Log in, open the vault, take an item — even a piece you plan to disenchant or use for a tier slot. Making the choice costs nothing.
The habit that saves people: claim your reward the moment you log in on reset day, before you queue for anything.
How many runs do I need before the vault resets?
The dungeon row unlocks at 1, 4 and 8 Mythic+ runs completed that week. The raid row unlocks at 2, 4 and 6 bosses killed. The third row tracks the season's world or PvP content. You get up to nine options total, but you pick exactly one item.
Only runs finished before the reset count. A key completed ten minutes after the rollover belongs to the new week.
Where is the Great Vault?
It sits in the current expansion's main hub city — Dornogal in The War Within, Valdrakken in Dragonflight — marked with its own icon on the city map. You can also see your progress any week from the adventure guide's vault summary without walking over to it.
Does higher key level still matter after the reset?
Yes — the vault remembers your best keys, not just the count. Your eight runs are ranked, and the reward tiers scale off your highest, fourth-highest and eighth-highest completions. Pushing one very high key and seven low ones gives you one strong option and two weak ones.
If filling eight keys every week has become the chore you keep skipping, that is exactly where a vetted pro helps: PewPewShop's Weekly Vault — 8 Dungeons runs from EUR 55, and single timed keys start from EUR 7.69, played alongside you by experienced human players — no bots, no cheats, and a long clean record. Handy when your reset window keeps landing in the middle of a work day.
