Two Side to Every tale Achievement, Come Sail Away, The Pride of Kul Tiras and in Teldrassil’s Shadow which are part of the meta-achievement A Farewell to Arms require horde players to have both horde and alliance alts at the same account. I for one don’t have alliance alts. I only ever played horde for over ten years. So, what now? Just give up on the TWW meta-achievement all together due to technicality?
Honestly if this holds, it’s ridicules. I feel like it’s a cheap shot and a punch to the gut after reading the requirements. I don’t wanna level an alliance alt just for a technicality and never play it again. I got my hands full with 3 alts on horde side and now you want us to play opposite faction too? C’mon now that’s way too much. Something needs to change to allow players like me a skip for these requirements. Otherwise, it’s problematic for the meta-achievement.
I would be okay with having our main do the achievement regardless of faction it’s a great idea, or do something other than having to level an alt entirely at the opposite faction. I enjoy playing horde not alliance no offense to others. I don’t wanna have to level an alliance alt just for this, it’s not fair.
I’m in agreement with Sendryn. The expansion metas are supposed to reflect your completion of most of the storylines/optional content of an expansion, BfA was about both factions, each side having a completely unique leveling and max level campaigns. You can’t claim to have played most of BfA by completely ignoring the other faction.
It shouldn’t require me to play opposite faction to complete the meta. First you wanted us to have alts, I did that and now I have 3 alts horde side. Now I need to have alts on opposite side too? That is not fair. Something needs to be done to remedy that.
I’m not the one crying because I think an Expansion Meta Achievement isn’t fair. There were quite a few achievements that were much more difficult before the meta was introduced, especially some of the ones involving the Old God Invasions.
Have fun with your tears, I’ll be sipping my coffee running around as Jani.
you are trying to rub it in, I have 2 x level 60 level up options I can use on an alliance alt if I want, but I won’t do that as it’s not worth it. I have options and I can buy level 70 boost if needed. The principle of it sucks and maybe they can change that. Want a cookie?
BfA was about exploring both factions to the point they had separate leveling campaigns, separate max level campaigns and were located on separate continents.
The expansion metas are all about completing a majority of the content in an expansion and doing the achievements associated with their world quests.
You cannot complete the majority of an expansion by ignoring half the content. If they were to change it, that would undermine the principle of Expansion Meta achievements.
If you have boosts and plenty of time, but don’t think it’s “worth it” then you simply don’t get the awesome mount.
Honestly, if you need help with any of it I’d be happy to help, these new expansion metas have been some of my favourite added to WoW. Finally getting a reward for doing a butt load of achievements everyone told me were worthless to do.
You speak about BFA as if your points are factual. What’s your source for all your points? Where did you come up with “Half the Contents” out of a hat? You just made up stuff to prove the opposite point that is all. The achievement “War Stories” and having players forced to level an alt on opposite side won’t go well with most players like me.
I have options I can exercise if needs be, but most players will not be glad to dish out 60 bucks for a boost or have an extra boost option laying around like me. I can’t see into the future, only time will tell and this if remained unchanged won’t go well with many players.
I have 3 horde alts, if the achievement required having 6 horde alts I would be okay with it, but having an alt at opposite faction? I don’t know anything about alliance and don’t care to know. I know 2 cities Stormwind and Iron Forge that shows you what I know about alliance cities name.
It’s not hard to look at the other 2 expansion metas and notice the trends and similarities.
You speak about this as if your point is factual. What’s your source for your opinion? Where do you come up with the idea that most players won’t want to play alts?
You don’t have to use a boost at all. Leveling is incredibly fast, and you can level in BfA, getting a lot of the requirements while doing that. Not every achievement is meant to be earned by the masses. This achievement was introduced for collectors and completionists.
That’s nice that you have Horde alts, but not everything in the game is going to be designed for every player. This is a fantastic meta achievement and it encourages players to step outside their comfort zone and explore other aspects of the game they may have been ignoring.
You can keep complaining all you want about how you don’t want to play Alliance, but they introduced this meta that requires you to play both factions, as there is content that is locked to be Horde only, and Alliance only. If you don’t want to earn the achievement as Blizzard intended then you don’t get the reward. Simple as that.
Yes it should. Because it’s two entirely separate stories that are part of the entire expansion. A meta is the for the entire expansion. Not half of it.
