Underachiever: Every WoW Achievement

Blizzard recently merged the 10-person and 25-person older raid achievements into a single achievement. This is good news for those of us who didn't want to do this achievement twice. http://www.wowhead.com/achievement=2924/iron-dwarf-medium-rare-25-player Iron Dwarf, Medium Rare is one of those achievements that I've tried to do as part of regular Ulduar runs around twenty times without success. This time I was determined to finish the damn thing. All told, it takes about half an hour to do after zoning in to Ulduar. Flame Leviathan takes part of that time but most of the time is spent AFKing until 25 Guardians appear. This is the best strat to use at 110 that doesn't rely on timing things just right: 1. TAKE OFF YOUR WEAPON and anything else that may proc to kill mobs 2. Start the fight and allow all four harpoons to be built. 3. AFK for 10-15 minutes until at least 25 Guardians spawn. 4. Use all four harpoons to ground Razorscale. 5. PUNCH Razorscale below 50% health

This one has taken a while. I finally picked up 300 toys (and thus the mount for the achievement) after starting to seriously work on my Archaeology achievements for the first time. I've been doing the fortnightly Legion archaeology quests for a while (and thus had 800 skill) but I completely ignored this profession in earlier expansions as it seemed seriously boring. With some knowledge and a good addon, it's much better however. Some tips if you're just starting to work on archaeology: 1. Download the "Archy" addon. This addon does several things: first, it shows you the location and completion status of all digsites in the current continent. Second, it automatically sets the closes one as a waypoint for TomTom. Third, it indicates when it's possible to solve an artifact with and without a keystone, so you don't have to constantly check your archaeology screen. On top of that, the distance indicator shows when you are in the correct range from your

Let's talk about goals. Obviously the overall goal is "get every achievement in the game" but that's so nebulous and far away that it provides little motivation. Roughly speaking, my primary goal before the next expansion is to complete essentially all of the solo content as well as most of the old raids and small group content. As a concrete goal, I want to get the "300 Mounts" achievement, since that one includes a lot of the other achievements of this type. "Part of "300 Mounts" involves collecting 300 toys. I'm getting close to finishing this one up: Just wanted to mention ALL THE THINGS - the best damn addon for collectors I've ever seen. It's fantastic. Here is a quick shot of it with the "Toy Box" section open: As you can see, ATT has information on essentially every item in the game that is collectible in some way. It also pops up zone-specific information, so as I fly from one area to the next, I can hon

My current "meta goal" is to get 300 mounts. This includes getting essentially all of the achievements that include a mount (since I'll need to get those eventually anyway). One of these sub-achievements is to collect 300 toys, which again means that I need to get every achievement that awards a toy for similar reasons to the above. It just so happens that a bunch of professions have a whole crapton of toys that can be created that are Bind On Pickup. Since there is an achievement to obtain 800 skill in every single profession, this implies that I'd need a much of alts to get all of the professions. There is another achievement for hitting 110 on five different characters and, well, hopefully you see how a simple-seeming achievement like "obtain 300 mounts" can cascade into a mess of sub-achievements. Anyway, the upshot of all of this is that I have been grinding alts to 110 in order to max out their professions (a lot of the profession quests require lev
