WoW Dragonflight Zskera Vaults: How to Unlock & Get All Rewards

That's a lot of gems.

World of Warcraft Dragonflight patch 10.0.7 added the Forbidden Reach as an explorable zone in the Dragon Isles, and with it comes the Zskera Vaults. This area will give players access to a socketable ring that can go all the way up to 424 item level, which makes it one of the strongest items in the game.

To access the new content, you will have to complete the main story up until the vault; it shouldn't take more than an hour if you focus only on it. Eventually, you will be tasked with going inside of the vault and exploring its secrets through the Zskera Vault: Az quest.

Inside the vault there are a series of doors, and many of them house socketable gems. These gems are put into the Onyx Annulet, a ring that begins at 405 item level but increases to 411 once all three gems are put inside. Jewelcrafters will be able to get the gems upgraded, bringing the ring up to 424 item level once each of them are socketed. To do this, players will need 10 Dormant Primordial Fragments and 25 Silken Gemdust.

How to get more Askera Vault Keys in WoW Dragonflight

Players only get a few keys to start to open up the vault doors, and they'll need to find more if they want to unlock everything the vault has to offer. The keys drop from enemies in the zone, and they are a guaranteed drop from the Forbidden Hoard events in the Forbidden Reach.

Anyone overflowing with Elemental Overflow can also choose to purchase the Sack of Oddities from Cataloger Daela in the Morqut Village for a chance at a drop. Most players will want to simply slay mobs for more keys, but there are plenty of options out there.
