The Voidforge
About the System
In patch 12.0.5 players gained access to a new system that offers two ways to power up their character: extra dice rolls for gear from Mythic+ dungeons, Delves, and raids, as well as the ability to upgrade a weapon or a trinket to item level 298.

Building the Voidforge
To start building the Voidforge, players need to complete a short quest chain in the Void Storm zone. It begins with the NPC Decim and is called Building the Voidforge.

Decim will ask you to bring him 3
Elemental Shards of the Void Core.
You can obtain
Elemental Shards of the Void Core from any current expansion content:
from the chest at the end of Mythic+ dungeons;
from the chest after completing Bountiful Delves;
from any raid boss on any difficulty.
Once the first quest is done, Decim will hand you the follow-up quest Elemental Void Core, which will again ask you to gather 3
Elemental Shards of the Void Core.
In total, you will need to complete this quest 5 times (until you have all 6 Elemental Void Cores required).
Void Misted Cores
Once the Voidforge has been built, players can trade a variety of valuable resources for Void Misted Core charges. Decim may ask for gold, marl, Veteran Crests of the Dawn, and other resources. In exchange you receive 2 core charges that can later be used to obtain extra personal loot in Mythic+ dungeons and raids on any difficulty.
How Do the Extra Rolls Work?
After a boss kill or upon completing a Mythic+ dungeon, you will be offered a dice roll that spends Void Misted Core charges and in return grants you an item from the dungeon you are in or from the specific boss you just defeated. Every dungeon and every boss has its own pool of items obtainable through the extra roll. Once you receive an item, it is removed from the pool and you will not be able to get it again on another roll in that dungeon or on that boss.
Important Factors and Trade Conditions
The roll guarantees an item from the available loot list with 100% probability.
Mythic+ dungeons require 1 core charge, while raid bosses cost 2 charges at once.
When you roll in a dungeon, you receive a reward matching the Great Vault reward for the dungeon's completed level (if you roll on a level 10 dungeon, you will get an item at Myth 1/6 quality).
Each raid difficulty has its own loot list. For example, receiving an item on Heroic difficulty does not remove it from the loot lists of the other difficulties.
Loot offered in the list is based on your class and the loot specialization settings you have configured. You will not receive an item meant for a non-matching specialization unless you enable such drops yourself.
Core charges accumulate weekly and are unique to each character. Spending cores on one character does not prevent you from spending them on another.
We recommend thinking carefully about where you spend these charges. Avoid rolling for items that will be useless to you or that you will replace quickly. First and foremost, aim for rare trinkets, weapons, and niche slots for your class that you will not be replacing for a long time.
Ascendant Void Cores
This system lets you upgrade your weapon or trinkets beyond their current cap, adding +9 item levels to them. For example, say you have a legendary two-handed sword from the Great Vault at item level 289. Using an Ascendant Void Core, you reforge your weapon and it becomes item level 298, while a crafted weapon at item level 285 becomes 294. You can obtain these cores from any current expansion content:
from the chest at the end of Mythic+ dungeons;
Nightmare-difficulty hunts;
from the chest after completing Bountiful Delves;
from any raid boss on any difficulty.
Important Upgrade Factors
Only weapons and trinkets can be upgraded.
To be upgraded, the item must reach the maximum upgrade rank of 6/6, or the maximum quality tier in the case of a crafted weapon (item level 285).
The item keeps all of its enchants and gem effects after the core is used.
There is no cap on the number of cores, so you can upgrade gear as many times as you see fit across different items, as long as you have enough Ascendant Void Cores.
