Hi guys, so yesterday like 10 hours ago I completed my last +15 (on time) but I still didn’t get the keystone master achievement or the mount . I did it on my boomy (Spacexbird - Tichondrius) , you can look it up on raider io. Did anyone else experience this problem ?

Is your M+ rating above 1999? If it is’t, then you didn’t complete the requirements for KSM.

so I have to complete a bunch of +16 as well? I thought keystone master is for all +15s ?
you need ~+15 of both tyrannical and fortified.

You have to get your rating to 2k. There are different ways of doing that.
Nah, you don’t need anything like that. You can get there with 13s and 14s if you have 16s and 17s to offset etc. The only thing you “need” is to have a 2k rating.
Seems to have changed this season. One of the side effects of people wanting an in game rating instead of relying on raider io

oh I see it now, thanks everyone I didn’t know I have to do both tyrannical and fortified
Nah, it was cause Blizzard wanted to make it so half the M+ population didn’t just “one and done” it on Tyrannical weeks, but not have to put the effort into y’know, actually fixing tyrannical.

Tyrannical is already fixed. Almost all of the good weeks this season except for one are Tyrannical weeks.
Forcing people to play Tyrannical forces people to actually try the content and get over their preconceived notions. It’s actually good and healthy for the game and increases people’s enjoyment overall, to realize that all the “Fort Week Only” nonsense is simply not true this season.
People are in general from what I’ve seen much happier about M+ overall. I haven’t seen a single person mention “taking the week off” this season except for one week a couple weeks back (Tyrannical Spiteful Necrotic). People used to skip almost every Tyrannical week but now I see people playing Tyrannical all the time.
Imo ois easier to get now, I got in week 2 so I can’t remember exactly what keys I did but it was 1 timed 17 on fortified and I know I only had a plus 10 NW timed for tyrannical, then a few not timed 16s and stuff, so you don’t even need to actually time all your keys to get a 2k rating

Tyrannical is less bad because they’ve already nerfed like half the bosses in the game that were key-breakers on Tyrannical, like Hakkar and the first/third boss in SD.
I still think it’s a lazy way of making players play whatever happens to be the harder affix and needlessly pads out the time it takes to get KSM, but like I’ve said in previous threads, the level of keys you need to do for KSM are pretty easy regardless of whether you do em on Tyrannical or Fort.
A lot of folks still got KSM the second week of the season. And I don’t think getting people to have more fun by hanging a carrot is “lazy”… it’s literally their job as designers. That’s what they’re supposed to do. They’re supposed to trick players who follow the path of least resistance into actually having fun.

See, the problem with what you are saying is…it seems most people on the forums don’t think the game is fun. (I don’t share this opinion)
So Blizz is punishing them by making them play the game they paid for

As a tank, I love Tyrannical week and the associated affixes.
I got my ksm timing a +4 plaguefall
tyrannical isnt too bad this week
somehow i managed to time a 15 plaguefall without a lust lol
Finished my KSM yesterday, definitely far easier this season. More people understand the dungeons at this point, and the fact that you can get ksm without timing all of the keys is also a huge boon to group stability in terms of people who in the past may have left a key are now more inclined to stay if the timer seems out of reach.

you currently dont even need to time a 15 for ksm. a timed 15 versus untimed rating is something like 6 to 9 point difference. All you need is 2000 rating
You have to be at 2k score for KSM now, basically 15’s in time on both fort and tyrannical weeks.
