How to get it

Reward of the achievement Glory of the War Within Delver, seven things done in The War Within's delves: every story of all 15 delves (Delve Loremaster: War Within), every Sturdy Chest in them (The War Within: Leave No Treasure Unfound), three clean runs on tier 8 or higher (Sporesweeper, Spider Senses, Daystormer), Brann Bronzebeard raised to level 25 (Brann Development), and one of the expansion's three nemeses defeated in its own delve: Zekvir, The Underpin or Nexus-Princess Ky'veza. Progress counts for the whole account.

Guide Wowhead: Glory of the Delver Achievement Guide

Before you go

Delve Loremaster: War Within: every story of each of the 15 delves completed once. A delve shows one story a day and changes it at the daily reset; the map names the day's story on the delve's marker. Tier 1 is enough · about 7 h over 2 weeks
The War Within: Leave No Treasure Unfound: every Sturdy Chest in all 15 delves opened. Most chests are there in every story of a delve, a few only in some; tier 1 is enough, so they can be picked up during the story runs · about 3 h
Three runs on tier 8 or higher: Sporesweeper (Fungal Folly or Mycomancer Cavern without being caught in a Sporbit's explosion), Spider Senses (Earthcrawl Mines, The Dread Pit, The Spiral Weave or The Underkeep without stepping on a Nerubian Web or being hit by a Nerubian Egg) and Daystormer (Nightfall Sanctum or Skittering Breach without stepping into the purple artillery circles) · about 1.5 h
Brann Bronzebeard, the delve companion of The War Within, at level 25. He gains experience from everything done in these delves, most of it from completing them; past level 15 only Bountiful delves count · about 6 h over 7 days
One nemesis of The War Within defeated in its own delve: Zekvir in Zekvir's Lair (Azj-Kahet, 35.0, 78.2), The Underpin in the Demolition Dome (Undermine, 50, 10) or Nexus-Princess Ky'veza in the Voidrazor Sanctuary (K'aresh, 38, 51). By players' reports the lower of its two difficulties, shown as '?', was enough · about 0.5 h

In all: about 18 h of play, spread over 2 weeks, starting from nothing.

Getting there

Delver's Headquarters, Dornogal (the delves themselves are spread over Khaz Algar, Undermine and K'aresh)

Dornogal · 48, 44

/way Dornogal 48 44

/way is for the TomTom addon. Travel times are estimates: flying at 55 yards a second in a straight line and 30 seconds for a portal. A star marks a portal that needs a quest or other unlock done first.

Notes and sources

Still earnable in Midnight. The nemesis line reads 'Defeat the current Seasonal Nemesis or any The War Within Nemesis once Midnight has launched' (Wowhead, 2026), and commenters report getting the achievement and the mount after defeating Zekvir (2026) and The Underpin (2026). One who killed Nullaeus, a Midnight nemesis, on tier 8 got no credit (2026). The line 'Brann Development or Branntastic' means either: three 2026 comments confirm it came without Branntastic.

The wiki's history:

patch 11.1 dropped the tier 8 or I TAKE Candle! line
11.2 dropped Just Keep Swimming
12.0 renamed it from Glory of the Delver and made any of the three nemeses count

The 15 delves (wiki):

Isle of Dorn: Earthcrawl Mines, Fungal Folly and Kriegval's Rest
the Ringing Deeps: The Dread Pit, The Waterworks and Excavation Site 9
Hallowfall: Mycomancer Cavern, Nightfall Sanctum, The Sinkhole and Skittering Breach
Azj-Kahet: The Spiral Weave, Tak-Rethan Abyss and The Underkeep
Undermine: Sidestreet Sluice
K'aresh: Archival Assault

Wowhead's guide names Fungal Folly, Earthcrawl Mines and Nightfall Sanctum as the easiest places for the three tier 8 runs. A 2026 comment says the story From the Weaver, With Love is the one that hands out the grapple hook needed for one of the chests, so that day should not be missed. A WeakAura that lists the stories still missing is linked in a 2025 comment.

Not established: whether Brann still levels the same way now that Midnight's delves have Valeera Sanguinar as companion (the wiki says only that Brann is the companion in The War Within), and how the tiers of these delves are opened on a character new to them. A 2026 commenter finished it on a character of item level 246.

The hours are estimates throughout; a boosting site seen only in a search excerpt speaks of seven days. There is no single place to go: the place given is only a point in Dornogal, the Delver's Headquarters where Brann stands (wiki: 48, 44), and the time on the spot is an estimate for one delve.

Confidence in this entry: medium. Looked up in 2026.
