If you're stuck upgrading your gear in World of Warcraft: Midnight, you're probably missing one thing — Crests.
These are the core upgrade currency in Midnight, and if you don't farm them efficiently, your gear progression slows down hard.
In this guide, you'll learn:
- how Crests work
- where to farm them fastest
- and how to avoid wasting them
TL;DR — Crest Farming Strategy
- Run content that matches your gear tier
- Focus on Mythic+ for consistent Crest income
- Do Delves + Prey for easy weekly Crests
- Always combine Crest farming with Great Vault progress
- Don't waste Crests on bad items
How Crests Work in Midnight

Crests replaced older upgrade systems and are now tied directly to content difficulty.
Each gear tier has its own Crest type:
| Gear Tier | Crest Type | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Adventurer | Low-tier Crests | World content |
| Veteran | Mid-tier Crests | Delves, low Mythic |
| Champion | High-tier Crests | Mythic+, raids |
| Hero / Myth | Endgame Crests | High Mythic+, Heroic/Mythic raids |
? Simple rule:
You get Crests from the same content that drops your gear
Best Ways to Farm Crests Fast
1. Mythic+ Dungeons (Best Overall)
This is your main Crest farm.
Why it's the best:
- Repeatable (no weekly lockout)
- Scales with difficulty
- Gives highest Crest per hour
Strategy:
- Spam keys you can clear fast (not barely survive)
- Target +6 to +10 range for best efficiency
- Combine with Great Vault progress
Speed > difficulty
2. Delves (Best Solo Method)
Delves are insanely good for casual Crest farming.
Focus on:
- Bountiful Delves
- Tier 5–8+ runs
- Opening Bountiful Coffers
Why:
- Fast runs (10–15 min)
- Easy scaling
- Counts for Great Vault (World row)
Perfect if you don't want to rely on groups
3. Prey Hunts (Easy Weekly Boost)
Prey is low-effort, high-value.
What you get:
- Crests
- Gear
- Vault progress
Best approach:
- Do 4–8 per week
- Combine with Delves
Think of it as "free progression"
4. Raids (Weekly Crest Source)
Raids are not farmable like Mythic+, but still important.
Why run raids:
- High-tier Crests
- Tier set pieces
- Vault rewards
Do at least Normal or Heroic weekly
Fastest Crest Farming Route (Optimal Routine)

If you want maximum efficiency:
Daily:
- 1–2 Mythic+ runs
- 1–2 Delves
Weekly:
- 4–8 Prey Hunts
- 1 Raid clear
- Fill Great Vault (at least 4–6 slots)
This gives constant Crest income + upgrades
Common Crest Farming Mistakes
Farming content too hard
If runs are slow → you lose efficiency
Farm what you can clear fast
Upgrading bad gear
Don't waste Crests on:
- temporary items
- wrong stats
- low-impact slots
Ignoring Vault
Vault = free higher-tier gear
Always fill it
Pro Tips (Big Value)
- Upgrade weapons & trinkets first
- Save high-tier Crests for BiS items
- Mix PvE sources (don't rely on one activity)
- Use Delves early → Mythic+ later
