Earthcrawl Mines Delve Guide: Location, Boss Strategies, and Trash
This page will cover everything you need to know about the Earthcrawl Mines Delve in the War Within Expansion, including strategies for events, trash, and bosses.
Getting into the Earthcrawl Mines
Earthcrawl Mines is a Delve located on the South-West side of Isle of Dorn, Khaz Algar.
This guide will provide all the specifics you need to complete Earthcrawl Mines across all tiers of difficulties (from Tier 1 to Tier 11). We will cover delve events, optional bosses (rares), as well as end of the dungeon boss and their abilities. If you would like to learn about the rest of the Delves in Season 1, please see our overviews linked below.

Events and Trash Mobs in Earthcrawl Mines
Event #1 — Webbing cleared with Flamethrower
The event is straightforward; use the Flamethrower Torch (special action-button) until you fill the completion bar and slay 8 Nerubians.
- If you jump, you will cancel the Flamethrower Torch effect.
- Don't stay on top of the Nerubian Webs, or else you will spawn extra adds.
Trash Mobs in this Area
- Skittering Intruders and Ankle Biters do nothing but auto-attacks.
- Outrange the Chittering Fearmonger's Fearful Shriek, or you risk to be feared.
- Sidestep the Nerubian Webspinner's Web Launch and interrupt their Web Bolt.
Event #2 — Slay the Nerubians
After slaying 0/37 Nerubian Ambushers (the same mobs as the Event #1), continue upstairs, where you will face your final challenge and progress through the final boss.
Event #3 — 0/9 Webbed Iamplighters rescued
Trash Mobs in this Area
- Interrupt Nerubian Threadmancer's Web Bolt.
- Sidestep (out-range)Nerubian Slasher's Jagged Slash, otherwise you will have a 6 sec Bleed effect on you.
- Avoid the Skittering Swarmer's Skitter Charge.
- Interrupt Nerubian Darkcaster's Shadow Bolt and Shadows of Strife (if you let the cast expires or is dispelled, it will knock you backwards so beware!).
Web General Ab'enar Boss Guide
Web General Ab'enar is one of the easiest bosses across all Delves; here are what you have to do to defeat him more easily:
- Any spare interrupts should go for Web Bolt.
- Curse of Agony should be interrupted at all times, this holds PRIORITY over Web Bolt.
- Once the burning cart is coming, make sure to side-step it before hitting you.
- Any spare interrupts should go to Runic Shackles.
