Delves are one of the core solo/duo progression systems in The War Within. With Brann Bronzebeard as your only companion in Season 3, your class choice can greatly affect how smooth your Tier 8+ runs feel. Below we've prepared a Tier List for Tanks, DPS, and Healers, with reasoning behind each placement.
S-Tier – Best of the Best
Classes that excel in self-sustain, utility, and consistent damage/healing – making them perfect for high-level Delves.
- Vengeance Demon Hunter (Tank) – Insane mobility, AoE control, self-healing with Soul Fragments. Safest tank choice.
- Blood Death Knight (Tank) – Nearly unkillable with Death Strike. Scales extremely well in long fights.
- Beast Mastery Hunter (DPS) – Pets do the tanking, allowing you to deal damage safely from range. Minimal downtime.
- Shadow Priest (DPS) – Strong DoT damage, self-heals through Vampiric Touch, excellent synergy with Brann's healer curios.
- Restoration Druid (Healer) – Mobile, HoTs keep you topped while you DPS. Can turn runs into speed clears.
A-Tier – Strong, but Situational
Great picks that shine in most content but might struggle with certain affixes or bosses.
- Protection Paladin (Tank) – Strong defensives, off-heals, and interrupts. Needs careful cooldown usage.
- Demonology Warlock (DPS) – Durable, steady DPS with pet utility. Can get punished on heavy-movement fights.
- Retribution Paladin (DPS) – Hybrid toolkit with healing and strong burst. Lacks ranged options.
- Holy Paladin (Healer) – Very strong in burst healing, great hybrid damage, but mana management can be tricky.
- Mistweaver Monk (Healer) – Smooth sustained healing with mobility. Slightly weaker on high burst damage fights.
B-Tier – Playable, but Harder to Push
Still viable for farming Delves and Vault progress, but require more effort compared to S/A-Tier.
- Guardian Druid (Tank) – Big health pool but lacks utility compared to DH or DK.
- Elemental Shaman (DPS) – Good AoE and burst, but survivability is weaker.
- Fury Warrior (DPS) – Fun and fast, but lacks sustain unless geared well.
- Discipline Priest (Healer) – Can work, but requires high player skill and gear to balance damage and healing.
Final Thoughts
Every class can complete Delves, but S-Tier classes make farming mounts, cosmetics, and Great Vault loot much easier. If you're aiming to push the highest Tier 11+ Delves in Patch 11.2, focus on self-sustain and synergy with Brann.
