Back in the good old days of d2, There were a group of like 30 europeans getting the barb 'War.zerk' (something like that) to level 99 back when it was almost impossible to do so. What they did was spawn diablo in an 8 player game and let the barb kill diablo. They would have multiple games ready for him just to kill diablo, they would clear all the levels ahead of him so he could just go from game to game killing diablo.

It still took them like 6 months of playing 24/7 for them to accomplish it, but they did it.

Think of it like this, over 12 or so million people play this game. And they play it often. And this is the first time that this has ever happened.

Does stuff like this actually require some skill or just months of playing?

Some of them are completely ridiculous and require hundreds of hours of mindless grinding/farming/questing just for single achievements. Some of them are just plain difficult and require doing raids without any wipes, no one dying, no mistakes during certain bosses, etc. And now there are over 1000 of them.

Poor guy is 986/1054 now. It's going to be awhile before anyone defeats Arthas for those achievements too.
Of course, you only live one life, and you make all your mistakes, and learn what not to do, and that’s the end of you.

i don't get people being negative over this, i believe this achievement to require more dedication than climbing mount everest for example. He's done an impressive thing.

yea d2 laddering was insane too, they would even get someoen to scout XP shrines in the game to give the barb double xp for the kill, but really, this is waay more time consuming/difficult than what the d2 guys did, someone who didn't play wow can't imagine the effort you have to put into some achievements

To those who don't know exactly how ridiculous this is, there have been over ten million players for like over a year. Achievements have been in wow for like a year and a half. Given that it's taken eleven million players over a year and a half worth of potential play time, only one person has done this so far.

Some achievements require you to be very good in PvP.. like winning 10 games of arena in a row at a very high rating. Some require you to have 24 other extremely competant people who won't die in your raid and one-shot every boss fight.

Most of the achievements that were listed before this one have dozens and dozens of similar achievements. I'd say about 95% of the achievements could be earned, given enough time, by just about anybody on this forum. Others could take you and the people you raid with months and months of trial and error, even hundreds of attempts depending on how good the people you raid with are.
good vibes only

but aren't some quests level related - meaning that you cannot start or finish them after a certain exp level? Also , even if you could do the quest - won't some of the items not be there or not dropped by mobs because of the level you are or whatever? Furthermore, How can you do all the alliance quests when you are horde? How can you do the alchemy, enchantment, etc quests? How can you do all the class specific quests? And it is also impossible to do all the reputation quests because if you are friendly with one side, you are unfriendly with another who either attacks you or talks to you.

And what about all the bonus quests, and seasonal quests that are not always there to do? Also some quests have multiple choice quest lines and endings and you can't beat them and restart for the other quest line.

Does turning in cloth and other shit around the world count as a quest? There is 100s of these places all around.
And this is all just PvE, im not even getting into the PvP and honor kill shit.


edit- I guess they aren't talking about quests but some specific list of shit you can do now.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

i'm actually curious about this matter as well. is this inherently difficult to do or just require massive amounts of grinding?

edit: i guess meta sort of answers the question.
