Guardian Druid: The Swiss Army Bear
If we had to crown a “best in show” for delving and open-world shenanigans, it’s Guardian Druid.
Stealth lets you skip annoying mobs.
Speed boosts and travel forms help you move fast.
Bear form is tanky, meaning you rarely die.
Battle res and off-heals make recovering from mistakes easy.
AOE tools and CC let you handle huge pulls without falling apart.
The only downside? Bosses might take a little longer to die. But pulling entire rooms makes up for it.
Brewmaster Monk: Chill and Nearly Invincible
Brewmasters are a blast in delves.
High sustain, so you rarely need Brann’s help.
Good mobility, letting you dodge stuff easily.
Tank spec but plays like a DPS once you know the rotation.
It’s also one of the few specs where Brann can just stay in DPS mode while you tank without breaking a sweat.
Beast Mastery Hunter: The Lazy King of Solo
Don’t want to tank? Want to coast through delves while watching Netflix?
BM Hunter is almost cheating.
Your pet does all the tanking.
You stand far away and press a few buttons.
Misdirect Brann, let him go full damage, and clean house.
This is probably the easiest solo class for delves right now, and it also pairs well with any friend playing DPS or healer.
Windwalker Monk: Speedrunner’s Delight
Windwalker Monks fly through delves like they’ve got somewhere better to be.
Absurd mobility lets you reposition nonstop.
Great AOE, great single target.
Strong self-sustain, plus crowd control for emergencies.
If you like a fast-paced playstyle and don’t mind pressing more buttons, this is a super fun option.
Final Blurb
Want the best class for delves in 2025? Pick Guardian Druid for utility, Brewmaster for chill tanking, BM Hunter for brain-off ease, or Windwalker for fast-paced fun. Honestly, any tank or self-reliant DPS will get the job done—as long as Brann isn’t having one of his classic meltdowns.
