Which achievement leads to each cache
Use the full achievement name when planning a gear reward. Clearing an individual tale and completing the Final Confrontation with all three classes are separate routes. The gear caches shown here bind to the Warband and list a level 90 requirement.
| Cache | Item ID | PTR achievement routes |
|---|---|---|
| Champion | 288984 | It’s Just a Normal Tale, for one tale on Normal or higher |
| Heroic | 288987 | One tale on Veteran or Heroic, or the Comprehensive Final Confrontation on Normal, Veteran or Heroic |
| Mythic | 288983 | One Mythic tale, or the Mythic Comprehensive Final Confrontation |

Raid names in the recorded tooltips
The Champion and Heroic item records name Venomous Abyss and describe a gear piece for your Loot Specialization. The linked Mythic record instead names Vaults of Atal’Utek. Wowhead’s earlier report reproduced a Venomous Abyss tooltip for that Mythic cache. Both references describe a Mythic reward, while the raid-pool wording differs. Check the cache tooltip on your client before opening it.

The two Mythic objectives
Confronting a Mythic Tale asks for a single story clear. Mythic: The Comprehensive Final Confrontation asks for the final encounter on Slayer, Witch and Inquisitor at Mythic difficulty. The item record links both achievements to cache 288983. It describes one gear piece per cache without listing individual boss drops.

Read the reward track before choosing a run
The Veteran tale achievement links to the Heroic cache. The difficulty named in an achievement and the gear track named on its reward can differ. Identify the reward by its item ID before using an achievement as a gearing goal.
