[3,372 of 6,002 · 56.2%] Two Years Later, Still Dying to Ky'veza

I realized my old posts included feats of strength, legacy and alliance achievements so I removed them from the count. This batch covers a huge stretch: the 20th Anniversary, finishing up War Within, a Legion Remix binge that somehow ended with a pile of Keystone Hero achievements, and now Midnight and Prey hunts. Naturally the highlights include getting expunged from the City of Threads by guards, getting killed by Ky'veza on purpose, and cooking 100 things in the middle of a Nightmare hunt. 600 mounts and 1600 pets are nice too, I guess. 10/23/24: [A Gatecrasher] , [The Gatecrashers] , [I Have That One!] 10/25/24: [A Timewalking Step Back to a Classic Dungeon Time] 10/26/24: [Codex Editor: Ahn'Qiraj] , [Pet Mischief] , [Balloonist] , [Frequent Flyer] 10/27/24: [Fashion Critic] , [An Original] 10/28/24: [Tricks and Treats of Khaz Algar] , [Tools of the Trade] 10/30/24: [Mount Master] , [Avid Listener] 10/31/24: [Peanut Gallery] , [A Cool Twenty Years] 11/1/24: [War Within Supe...

 8/4/24: [Into the Storm]! I FINALLY had this one pop after over a month of waiting. 8/21/24: Taivan! I finished this with less than a day before TWW came out. 8/28/24: Lots of TWW achievements. I got 80 after three days and maxed out enchanting and did the campaign up until it's blocked. 9/12/24: [Sojourner of Azj-Kahet]! This one took a fair bit of time but was generally fun to do. I'm going to work on the other ones now, zone by zone. 10/20/24: [Loremaster of Khaz Algar]!

[3,445 of 5,450] You Know How to Reach Me

 7/3/24: [Neltharion's Legacy] and [Legend of the Multiverse]! I picked this up from the weekly time vault. [Scroll Hunter]! This one I am happy to be done with. I thought it was going to be a lot harder - wowhead comments imply as much. In the end it probably took two hours of farming Froststone Vault with crystals. [Treasures of Thaldraszus]! 7/8/24: [Treasures of the Azure Span]! [Wake Me Up]! [Treasure Hunter of the Dragon Isles]! [Treasures of the Waking Shores]! I have no more treasures to find! This one promised to be a slog but actually was easy enough, I just picked up Disturbed Dirt and Expedition Packs while doing other things like hunts. 7/9/24: [Forbidden Spoils]! 7/11/24: [Hunt Master]! I finally figured out how hunts work and realized that they don't show up until you are actually in the zone. As a result I can finally work on [Disgruntled Hunter] [Under the Weather]! I just logged in every two hours and got all three I was missing in a row!   7/13/24: I've b...

[3,416 of 5,120] 500 mounts!

 5/26/24: Then usual stuff. I did more Time Rifts yesterday and picked up some achievements for that. Today I did a hunt and got another bakkar color (2 to go) and completed [Treasures of the Ohn'ahran Plains]! 5/29/24: [Can You Dig It?] - this one took a lot of weeks. Glad it's over with. 5/30/24: [Friend of Ooz] - thanks WQAchievements! 6/10/24: I've been doing MoP Remix. My druid is up to level 61 and I've picked up the Houlon mount for [Gonna Need a Bigger Bag]! I also picked up a whole bunch of Scenarios achievements. I'm also picking up several mobs for [Glorious!] which is fantastic. With the fast respawn rates, now is the time to do this achievement without spending hours looking for mobs to spawn. Scratch that, the achievement isn't account-wide so I'd need to find all 56 of them in MoP to get the achievement. Still possible but less awesome. 6/13/24: I'm picking up two toys for [Gonna Need a Bigger Bag] since they are both 1% drops and then I...

[3,339 of 5,120] Pandaria Remix

 4/11/24: So I'm working on The World Awoken before it goes away in the next xpac. It's possible it won't go away but still, it's a good focusing mechanism. The longest one to get looks like it's going to be https://www.wowhead.com/achievement=16543/tetrachromancer#comments [Tetrachromancer] - people have done hundreds of hunts and not gotten all the colors. It looks like the strategy is to get class trials and do the weekly hunt with them to get purple bags, since those have a higher chance of dropping the colors (once weekly). 4/11/24: [Whose a Good Bakar?] This one took forever. I finally had it show up after a bunch of attempts. 4/12/24: [Puzzle Performer]! Finally! This one took forever but WQAchievements saved the day and let me know that it was up today. I also picked up [Adventurer of Thaldrassus]! [Longhunter] too! I picked up the Friendsurge Defenders toy and so now I can get the pet from the Emerald Dream! 4/13/24: Finished up the Eon's Fringe dailies...

[3,304 of 4,970] Progress on A World Awoken

 4/3/24: I'm working on picking up the Noblegarden pet for 250 chocolates before it goes away, then I'm going to go back and work on the main meta achievement for the expac. 4/4/24: [Dream On]] and [Adventurer of the Emerald Dream]! I'm working on the dragon racing achievements for A World Awoken. They just need Bronze so they should be quick to get done. 4/5/24: [Emerald Dream Racing Completionist]!  [Zaralek Caverns Gold]! [Zaralek Caverns Racing Completionist]! [Now THIS is Dragon Raceing]! and a bunchy of others :) 4/6/24: [Treasures of Zaralek Cavern]! I'm really enjoying having a clear collection of achievements to work on (for the meta) - it makes the list so much more manageable. [How Did These Get Here]! 4/7/24: [Sandstorms in the Azure Span]! I followed a group of alliance that were killing mobs in the area. Made this quick. I also picked up [Stormed Off] and [To All the Squirrels Hidden Til Now]!

[3,281 of 4,970] Noblegarden

 3/16/24: Planning. 1. Do seasonal/ one-time things like AOTC, Hearthstone event etc. 2. Do WQs that pop up with WQAchievement. 3. Do things with a long timegating, like Loamm digsites (only 3 per week, need 50). 4. Do one-time things that need a group if there is a group active. 5. Do the monthly Trading Post. 6. Do the weekly quests if relevant. 7. Work on a specific section, like "pets" and try to complete 100% of that section. 8. Do other achievements when I am close to them (ATT)/ am bored. Aim for 3 achievements per day to get everything cleared in a year. 3 is a lot - I've averaged one per day so far.  3/17/24: More Heathstone events plus some work on pet achievements - various Aquatic, Beast, Critter etc. I also started working on [An Awfully Big Adventure] since I needed Trunks for one of the strats. I paid 140k for a 9/9 Heroic run:  I finished the Hearthstone achievement: 3/18/24: A quick WoD timewalking dungeon for the 500 Timewarped Badges and then I started ...
