Achievements have been a major feature of World of Warcraft for a long time. First added in Wrath of the Lich King, achievements became something that players could pursue if they were interested. Achievements vary in difficulty, ranging from things that can be completed easily, like collecting 10 mounts to more difficult tasks like going the extra mile in endgame content like Dungeons and Raids.
The “Glory of” meta-achievements have always been intended for players who seek to do everything there is to do in endgame content. By completing all the achievements listed under these meta-achievements, players can earn unique rewards like mounts. Delves now have their own meta-achievement known as “Glory of the Delver”, and here is how you can complete it.
How to Complete Glory of the Delver
Glory of the Delver is a meta-achievement that consists of 10 achievements related to endgame Delves. Before you can start working on this achievement, you will want to make sure you have reached Level 80 and unlocked up to at least Tier 8 Delves. The achievements are as follows, and specifics for each achievement are included below.

War Within Delves: Tier 8
This one is pretty straight forward To unlock this achievement, you must unlock and complete a Tier 8 Delve. If you are undergeared, do an easier Delve to complete this achievement.
Delve Loremaster: War Within
For this achievement, you will need to complete every version of each War Within Delve. This excludes Zekvir’s Lair, as there are no rotating stories in that Delve. The objective of each Delve rotates daily, and since some of the Delves have 3 or more versions, this achievement can take some time to complete.
Leave No Treasure Unfound
This achievement is unlocked when you find all Sturdy Chests in every Delve. You do not need to find all Sturdy Chests in one run. Some Sturdy Chests only appear in certain stories. For example, there is a chest that only spawns during “From the Weaver with Love” in the Spiral Weave.
Sporesweeper
To complete this achievement, go to either Fungal Folly or Mycomancer Cavern and then clear it on Tier 8 without getting hit by the explosion caused by the floating spores. It is okay if a spore is following you, just do not be in the circle when it explodes. If you get the poison debuff, you failed the achievement. Brann and pets do not cause this achievement to fail, so don’t worry if they are standing next to the spore as it detonates.
I TAKE Candle!
This achievement can be completed in either the Waterworks or Kriegval’s Rest on Tier 8. In both Waterworks and Kriegval’s rest, there is a totem/candle that you need to stay alive. While you are holding either of these items, there will be a circle around you that gets progressively smaller as you move. The best way to complete this achievement is to drop the totem/candle while you are fighting enemies. This allows you to move freely in the circle while not reducing the size. If you manage to beat the boss at the end without either the totem or candle expiring, you will unlock this achievement.
Just Keep Swimming
This is one of the easiest achievements for Glory of the Delver. You must complete either the Sinkhole or Tak-Rethan Abyss on Tier 8 without running out of air. This can easily be cheesed by using a water breathing potion. This achievement can be a little buggy sometimes, so it may take a few attempts to get it to unlock.
Spider Senses
In order to complete this achievement, you must clear either Earthcrawl Mines or Dread Pit on Tier 8 without spawning a Nerubian from a web or getting hit by Nerubian Eggs. The webs can be fairly difficult to get out of depending on what story is active, so it is easier to do Dread Pit when the active story is Kobold Kidnapping.
At this point, all you will have to worry about is the Nerubian Eggs. As long as you don’t walk into them or directly attack them, this achievement will unlock when you beat the boss.
Daystormer
In Nightfall Sanctum, you will see the purple circles that expand and then shrink. You must complete Nightfall Sanctum on Tier 8 without ever touching one of these circles. For the most part, it is pretty easy to avoid these circles. The biggest challenge is the one that moves during the boss fight at the end.
Nemesis
This is arguably the hardest achievement in Glory of the Delver. To complete Nemesis, you must complete Zekvir’s Lair either solo or with a group on Tier ?. To even have a chance at beating Zekvir, your gear must be no lower than 590. Even then, it is very easy to wipe on Zekvir if you can’t properly manage the cocoons.
Brann Development
To complete this achievement, you will need to get Brann to Level 25. Brann earns XP from Delves all the way up to Level 15, and at that point he only earns EXP from Bountiful Delves. Keep doing Bountiful Delves and Brann will eventually reach Level 25.
