There are two overall meta achievements added, one for Shadowlands, Back from the Beyond (Which I think is a duplicate of the Veilstrider one which awards an awesome unarmoured Shadebeast, the glad mount, but no armour) and A World Awoken which awards TAIVAANNNN

There is quite a bit of plunder talk, so this might go under a radar if you’re not following WoW related news.

Looking at the shadowlands meta and it doesnt look like achievement progress is account wide. Anyone else seeing that?
All the people complaining that Blizzard didn’t give PvE players any content clearly don’t know what they’re talking about.

To be fair, if you’ve actually been playing the expac, there’s not really much new content if at all. I had like 99% of these new achievements automatically completed at log in.

That’s fair, but I don’t think you’re exactly the average player.
Are…are you referencing the fact that I’m a gnome?! Prepare for discombobulation!

The achievements themselves are new, but none of the content you need to do for either of them is new so can we really call this “new content”?
Except Taivan of course. I’d sacrifice 100 raid tiers for a Taivan mount

Not new, just reintroduced.
Not a duplicate, just changed the reward and re-enabled it.
If you think these are good, just look at A Farewell to Arms (not the Hemingway novel)
