So you can select difficulty when entering a vault. Normally this would only change the base gold and souls of a battle. Can devs confirm there is no point to make a vault key run harder?

I can confirm that Vault Keys do not scale with difficulty, so play it at the lowest.

I got 5 gems, 5 diamonds and a gem key from my vault! Totally worth all the effort my guild paid to get that far. Seriously though… it’s a joke reward.

No they don’t, the vault rewards don’t scale.  
I got very lucky though, 4 keys opened got the legendary gnome twice, common gnome once and 3x 100k and some other resources.

You also get one in the raids rewards which is pretty awesome. Only reward in the raids that really was worth it for me unless you are going for spot 1 on leaderboards and want to craft Zuul
