Defender of a Shattered World is an achievement that rewards the title 'Defender of a Shattered World' upon completing all first-tier Cataclysm Heroic 5-man dungeons and all three Cataclysm raids — Bastion of Twilight, Blackwing Descent, and Throne of the Four Winds — on normal mode.

1

Complete Tier-1 Heroic Dungeons

Enter and complete all first-tier Cataclysm Heroic 5-man dungeons. Zul'Aman and Zul'Gurub are considered second-tier and do not count toward this achievement.

2

Clear Bastion of Twilight

Enter Bastion of Twilight on normal mode and defeat all required bosses. This raid is generally considered the most approachable of the three on normal difficulty. Note that killing Heroic Lady Sinestra is not required for this achievement.

3

Clear Throne of the Four Winds

Enter Throne of the Four Winds on normal mode and defeat all required bosses, including Al'Akir, who is regarded as one of the more challenging encounters of the tier.

4

Clear Blackwing Descent

Enter Blackwing Descent on normal mode and defeat all required bosses, including Nefarian, who is generally regarded as the most difficult encounter of the tier on normal difficulty.

Tips

  • As of patch 4.2, all three raids received a 20% nerf on normal mode, reducing boss health and damage by 20% and simplifying some mechanics, making completion significantly more straightforward.
