“Because it’s more rewarding if it’s rng” said someone at blizz who likes watching people be annoyed at their lack of luck to appease rngsus.

This is how I’m going to be with those SL RNG quests, too: continually check for it to not be the one I need, because it’s not on a rotation.

Call me crazy but at that point I’ll probably set my alarm for every 3 hours even at night lol

Is the progress on this achievement account wide? I swear i’ve killed thousands of mobs in those storms across all my characters, so I’m assuming not.

At least my timing of getting home from work tends to be just a little bit before the next storm starts up, would be even more annoying if I got home and found out I had less than 20 minutes to kill 200 guys in a storm I needed. Though I may just need to set a three-hour alarm for the times I’m awake to remember to check because otherwise it would never get done.
And no, progress for any of the achievements is not shared between characters, you’d have to fully complete an achievement for it to count account-wide.

i would love to have taivan as a mount but i am too lazy and unachieving and sick and weak mentally physically and spiritually to get him probably. good luck to all who work for him and best wishes. I too hope they return storms to 2 at a time.

Live service games dont respect players time, because thats the entire point of a live service game.

Find another game then don’t ruin it for the rest, thanks.
It did not used to be, but i have no idea if it changed. I found that out the hard way when I was doing things on Alts and was knocking out the storm achievements at the same time. About halfway through, I realized that one Alts progress didn’t reflect on another one.
I ended up picking whoever had the most and then went back and re-did all the other ones. Yes, I am dumb.
So, I’ve actually done the Storms achievement 1.5 times, so I have no sympathy for anyone! lol
PS. I think a set rotation would be a nice compromise.
Tips and Tricks for Back from the Beyond and its done!

They really need to just nerf that achieve to only count like 2 storms per zone done or just remove it from the meta achieve IMO.
There are achieves that are huge grinds and there are achieves that are huge RNGs, this one is the only one that is both

Nerf or more storms. Fighting spawn RNG isn’t much of an achievement. You have people considering literally setting alarms in middle of night to check storms.
You know your game is filled with mentally sick people so don’t play into it.

The storms used to be two per rotation, but with either 10.1 or 10.2 the number of storms were reduced to one. I’m struggling with this too - now that I’m halfway through the sixteen required storms - and it seems like the storms are always in the Waking Shores or The Azure Span when I need all four in Ohn’ahran Plains, three in Thaldraszus (not fire), and just one in The Waking Shores (fire, but that one never seems to spawn).
I would be fine with removing the one hour downtime to storms (storms are up for two hours, down for one, then rotate to a new location) or having at least a predictable pattern to them as having sixteen different combinations (four storm types and four zones) would mean the time at which a certain one spawns will gradually change with each full rotation.
The only other achievement I’ll be struggling with for the Dragonflight meta achievement will be Tetrachromancer, because even though I just need one last color I’m not guaranteed to get it (two weeks and didn’t get it). I even have the mount but just missing the red ohuna companion color.

Good work @Nui, you brought it back to the Azure span yet again 
If this is what you enjoy, you need to re-evaluate your entire view of Value…
