Delver's Arcane Golem
Originally intended as a gift for Silvermoon, this construct was lost in transit near the shores of Gnarldor Isle.
Acquisition Guide
Delver's Arcane Golem is an arcane Silvermoon construct recovered from a Sturdy Chest inside the Gnarldor Isle delve. It uses the tall four-legged arcane-golem silhouette and was originally described as a gift lost in transit near Gnarldor Isle. Search all three fixed chest locations during a run rather than farming outdoor mobs.
Unlock Patch 12.1 delves
Complete the opening Coiled Isle campaign through What Lies Beyond the Fog, then unlock Gnarldor Isle as a delve destination. The delve is on the Coiled Isle and becomes part of the Season 2 delve rotation when the season opens.
Enter Gnarldor Isle
Select a difficulty you can finish reliably and enter the Gnarldor Isle delve. The reward comes from a Sturdy Chest within the delve, not from the outdoor island, the final Delver's Bounty chest, or a generic mob drop.
Open the northwest Sturdy Chest
Inside map 2635, check 28.44, 38.15. Clear nearby enemies, reach the chest platform, and open the object named Sturdy Chest; this is the location specifically associated with early mount-loot reports.
Open the remaining Sturdy Chests
Continue the same run and check 52.41, 40.87 and 60.43, 68.11. These are the other fixed Sturdy Chest locations used by Gnarldor Isle Discoveries. If map-pin commands reject the map ID inside the scenario, use andwithout #2635
Finish the run and check delivery
Complete the delve and check bags and mail for Delver's Arcane Golem. If the mount is not awarded, repeat on another eligible run/character; Blizzard has not published a guaranteed rate or a bad-luck counter.
Learn the construct
Use the awarded mount item and confirm Delver's Arcane Golem is marked Collected. Do not confuse it with Corroded Soul Crusher, the separate Season 2 Delver's Journey vendor mount.
Tips
The three Sturdy Chests also advance Gnarldor Isle Discoveries.
Chest coordinates use Gnarldor Isle delve map ID 2635.
