Deep within the treacherous Delves lies a fearsome secret - the potential for Zekvir, the Hand of the Harbinger, to spawn unexpectedly and wreak havoc on unsuspecting adventurers. This powerful final boss of the Delve challenges has been known to make surprise appearances, much like the infamous Butcher from Diablo IV.
Zekvir has been confirmed to randomly spawn as low as Tier 4 Delves, catching players off guard with his devastating abilities. His Claw Smash frontal cone attack can stun you, while his Horrendous Roar inflicts massive AOE damage through a fear effect. Encountering this fearsome foe is no easy feat.

If your group manages to whittle Zekvir down to 50% health, or he manages to slay your entire party, he will burrow back underground and retreat from the Delve. But his departure leaves behind a valuable parting gift - the Hulking Raptorial Claw. This rare drop contains some of the most coveted Delve loot, including the powerful Radiant Echo, Delver's Bounty (scaled to the Delve's level), and the exclusive Relicblood of Zekvir for Brann.
Surviving an encounter with Zekvir is no small feat, and those who manage it will be rewarded with the Heavy-Handed achievement. But be warned - the sudden appearance of this secret boss can turn a routine Delve run into a desperate struggle for survival.
Adventurers, keep your wits about you as you delve into the depths. For the Hand of the Harbinger may be lurking, ready to test your mettle and claim your hard-earned spoils. Are you prepared to face Zekvir's wrath?
