Achievements don't vanish once you change characters, but why spend all your time arguing about it?



Alludra the mannerly mage here helping you be the best player you can be!

Something I love about world of warcraft's new expansion is the changes they have made to the achievement system! I am a huge fan of the fact that all my toons seem to have my achievements linked on them and I can work on progress on whichever character I am currently on. After all, I am the one that earned them, I should get to see how I am progressing!

SO I love hearing how I didn't actually earn them when I am playing on an alt.

Thanks random player for telling me that the weeks of wiping on various bosses working on progression don't matter because I have switched characters. What's that? The horseman's mount I spent four years earning and got on a lucky drop on the wrong toon shouldn't apply to the character I truly wanted it on? We shouldn't question the all knowing RNG's wisdom is that it?

Look guys, like it or not, I worked hard for all my achievements, no matter what character I earned them on. Yes, a level 4 isn't likely to be a loremaster, but for some of us, these are awesome perks we got for working so hard on our characters in the first place.

So what do you say we all live and let live and keep the pvp in the battlegrounds?

#27 Zone Sharing

Sharing is caring...kinda. Zones shouldn't be battlegrounds between those leveling and those going for achievements, so why not just share?

Crazy right?

The summer lull is a great time to roll a new alt, or to go after some of the missed achvements in our favorite games, so isn't it great when the two intersect? Doesn't everyoen just love it when their low level toons can't complete quests or finish objectives because there's a level capped toon wondering around AOE' ing everything in sight? No dude, we arne't mobs, but please kill all the mobs in the zone, we can wait!

A great way to try and aoid this type of frustration is to try and quest in another hub, but some games don't allow non- linear questing anymore. making this more difficult for everyone involved. My suggestion is before you report someone for greifing, wisper them and ask them to chill out or even invite you. If they are rude que for a dungeon, the level capped player might be two zones away by then.
