Hi
Do we have a firm answer on if we need to do a +15 this week to get the highest loot (475?) in the chest on Wednesday? I've searched around but I cant find anything online confirming!

Weekly chests in BfA are based on the week you earn them, not the week you open them.
pretty sure they won't up the ilvl on gear from weekly chest before one week after when the raid releases, like they did with 8.2. So if you do a 15 key this week, you will still only get a 430 or what the ivl is currently for a 10 key. Then that week you do a 10 key with the new scaling and then you get the new ilvl the next week. but i might be wrong, so don't base your activity on this
As far as I know the importante thing about doing M+ this week is:
AP if you are capped at 70 now
Titan residuum after reset
Am I wrong about this?
The Jan 14 chest will be the reward for this week, which is the last of the true s3 weeks. The reward will be 440+ with the possibility of WF/TF.
The Jan 21 chest will be the reward for the tack-on s3 week. (Raider.io refers to it as "BFA Post-Season 3". That week is counted differently in raider.io since it's still the s3 metrics, but you have upgrades in the form of the cloak and the AP cap increase with the patch.) The reward is still 440 base.
The Jan 28 chest is the first s4 weekly reward. That will be the first one to get 470 for 10 or 475 for 15 and will no longer WF/TF but can be corrupted.
They changed it. 10 gives 465, 12 gives 470 and 15 gives 475 (all numbers for weekly chest ... end-of-dungeon rewards -10 ilvl.)

Also with typical end of xpac power creep 15s are going to eventually be quite a bit easier then they currently are. The new seasonal affix also helps non fotm comps be competitive with routing, and don't even need good communication like with rogue shroud to get it.
Why do you expect more power creep in 8.3?
Right now we have PUGs with 450+ ilvl, font of power and a timed +19 is not a given every week. The +15 from 8.3 is a +19.5 from the game right now and currupted gear cant be stacked endlessly, I wont even touch the gigantic increase in RNG to get usefull corrupted gear.
The PTR M+ stream testing with close to "BiS" currupted gear - we most likely never ever see in the real game - did not look easier at all.
I would say a +19 right now with 430 ilvl and no on-use trinkets is more comperable to the 8.3 weekly-15 difficulty. It just means it will require even more cheesing with rogues to get the runs fast enough.

And player strength a month into the patch is going to be far, far stronger then it currently is. Not sure why you think a comparison to now is relevant to then. Don't be surprised when people are doing 28s at the end of this tier instead of 25s. I think this is your first rodeo partner, but end of xpac power creep is gonna be real when you only need to find 1-2 pieces of good corrupted gear and have full sockets on all your gear.
