TWW Season 2 Delves Tier 11 introduce players with Gilded Undermine Crests. This mechanic was a mystery for some time. However, the community now knows more about it and even found the expected cap via data mining. Today, we wanted to discuss the Gilded Undermine Crest cap and how players can reach it. If you want to learn more about Season 2 and all new features, read our 11.1 patch overview.
What are Gilded Undermine Crests
Gilded Undermine Crests are a part of gear upgrading mechanics. These can be used to upgrade Hero and Mythic gear up to ilvl 662. Players can get Gilded Undermine Crests from:
- Mythic difficulty Liberation of Undermine raid.
- Mythic Plus dungeons (M+8 and higher).
- Delver’s Bounty (from Tier 8 and higher).
- Delve’s Gilded Stash (from Delves Tier 11).

Delver’s Gilded Stash and Season 2 Gilded Crests cap
With the help of dataminers, we now know that Gilded Undermine Crests will be obtained from Delver’s Gilded Stash. If some lives remain, this stash will appear at the end of the completed Delve. Players can loot in to get the desired Crests by visiting the treasure room. Each Delver’s Gilded Stash contains six Gilded Undermine Crests. However, it seems like only three Delver’s Gilded Stashes are available for players per week. This brings us to a total of 18 Gilded Undermine Crests cap in Season 2.
Community opinion on Season 2 Gilded Crests cap
Many players were disappointed that the essential upgrade currency was available in such a small amount. The community is almost entirely against this The War Within Season 2 Gilded Crests cap change. Players are anxious. Even thinking about how much time they will have to spend farming these new Crests is saddening. This change once again brought the community to an intense and unnecessary grind that Blizzard adds to the game to stretch out the time needed to hit the desired point in progression.
Final thoughts
At the beginning of Season 1, we faced a weekly cap of 90 crests of each type. However, seeing this new Crests cap in TWW Season 2 is very disturbing. It looks like a sign of an upcoming grind. And it is going to be much more intense than before. You might want to prepare yourself for the 11.1 patch and buy gearing boost since getting better gear in Season 2 will be much more complicated.

Comments
The cap is 21 per week, not 18. You can get an additional 7 from the delver’s bounty for a grand total of 28 per week. This article is nothing more than AI generated and golfed text to fearmonger people into paying for content that is easily clearable on their own. Shame on you.
Greetings! Just to clarify, this article was written in December using datamined information from the PTR servers. Since patches often undergo adjustments before going live, some details may change upon release. In this case, as you pointed out, the final number of Crests obtainable per week was adjusted by the developers.
