So, I’ve been trying to figure out if I’ve accomplished certain Archeology achievements in WoW.
Specifically “A Keen Eye” Since the loot from the quest lines is amazing.
However, I can’t find said achievement.
I can’t search for it, and it’s now showing up where it’s supposed to between the Curator achievements.
I can see it if linked to me, and that’s it.

Thank you!
(Also placed in Bug Report in-case this is something new, and here if someone knows a fix)
If you go to the Achievement on Wowhead here:
A Keen Eye - Achievement - World of Warcraft (wowhead.com)
It will list the individual requirements. Click on those and then go down under the Rewards image and you will see where it says: See if you have already completed this by typing - and there is a line of text.
Click it and then post it in your text box ingame. It will say either True or False. If you do that for each part you will be able to see if you have missed something (True meaning yes you’dve done it, False meaning no).
PS: Although it is described as an “achievement” it seems merely to be part of a questline which goes “Surveying the Land”, “This Side Up” and “A Keen Eye”.
Also, the things needed for that part of it only come into the game at certain times. One of the comments on that page show you what is available at what times of the year.
Thank you!
Also when someone else links it to me, I can see what i have by check marks, but I can’t check myself and don’t know why.

I use this to get search results for achievements regardless of which part of the achievement has text that you may remember/be interested in. It’s able to see feats of strength as well. Never been lost on what I have completed or need to get done using it and honestly blizz needs to make it a first party option.
I don’t even understand how something like this can even happen!
Like a achievement I never completed is now just gone when I actually want to track it.
Some achievements (and I could be gaslighting myself), don’t appear in their section until you complete the earlier less comprehensive versions of them.
So say like Kill 5 rares in a zone, the kill all rares in a zone achievement will be hidden from you until after you earn the achievement for killing 5.
I completed the keen eye achievement wayback in legion so I can’t recall if it worked like that but it can. However I never preferred working with meager search function blizz gives and have used overachiever for years. So it’s never felt like anything has really been hidden to me unless I was just using the wrong terms.

I wonder, would the previous be from an earlier expansion?
Were there missions like that in Dreanor?
No all 3 stages of the keen eye achievement were added in 7.0.3 and concern only the legion archaeology items you get from quests. Each achievement is given by earning 1/8/13(all) artifacts, so I really do think the achievements are like russian nesting dolls in terms of visibility.
I’m only at 4… so what’s the first?
People were able to link it with none of the steps completed, which is confusing, eveything was greyed out.
First is surveying the land (1).
Second achievement (what you are on now) is, This side up. That requires 8. This achievement also functions account-wide to give a legion weapon appearance for all 36 weapons of the second row/upgraded appearance.
Search “This side up” and you’ll be able see.
As for them being able to link an incomplete achievement, those people likely have that addon I linked to you. You are able to track anything and link everything to chat.
Yep I got This Side up to appear…
So yea, gotta do them all thank you!
