Delve Reputation GUIDE - Delver´s Journey
What are Delves
Delves in World of Warcraft offer players a new way to experience endgame content without the need for instanced dungeons. They can be completed solo or in groups of up to five players, with cross-faction grouping enabled. Each player is accompanied by an NPC companion, with Brann Bronzebeard being the NPC in season 1. This suggests that we may see other characters from the League of Explorers in future seasons.
Inside the delves, players will encounter different environments and mobs based on the location within the four zones of The War Within. For example, delves in the land of Khaz Algar will have mobs from that zone, while delves in the Ringing Deeps will feature mobs and environments from that zone. The same applies to delves in Hallowfall and Azj-Kahet.
During the delves, players will encounter rare mobs, treasure chests that grant special powers, herb and mining nodes, as well as specific objectives and puzzles. The special powers obtained in delves are similar to those seen in Thorgast in Shadowlands or Cobalt Assembly in Dragonflight. These powers are not class or spec-related and can include abilities like haste, AoE lightning bolts, or defensive shields.
