Horrific Visions Rewards Clarification

We’d like to clarify some details about rewards from Horrific Visions. Items are awarded from Horrific Visions at the following milestones:

Objective - Reward iLvl

• Vision Boss Only - 420
• Vision Boss + 2 Bonus Objectives - 430
• Full Clear No Masks - 445
• Full Clear + 1 Mask - 450
• Full Clear + 2 Masks - 455
• Full Clear + 3 Masks - 460
• Full Clear + 4 Masks - 465
• Full Clear + 5 Masks - 470

Each week, you can obtain each tier of rewards once, with a 100% chance to obtain the best reward that the you were eligible for on any given Horrific Vision.

For example, if on your first run of the week you clear 2 bonus objectives and defeat the Vision boss, you’ll get an iLvl 430 item. If you then repeat that run, you’ll get the iLvl 420 item that you were eligible for (because you’re no longer eligible for an iLvl 430 item until the weekly reset). If you then perform a full clear, you’ll get the iLvl 445 piece.

Please note: the presence or absence of other players in Horrific Visions does not influence the chance for an item to be rewarded. All loot tracking is personal, and a character must be alive and sane at the start of an encounter in order to receive credit.
