For me it was Battlemaster, the bg that i am on is dominated by horde so doing a lot of those achievements was rather difficult. One of the funniest things that i had to do to get one of the achievements was during a Ulduar 10 raid, i told everyone to wait while i qued for AV to get into a "Stormpike Perfection" game, so at first no one knew where i went, when they finally saw where i was, they started yelling. But by the time we were ready to pull the boss i had finished my achievement. Anyway it would interesting to see what were other peoples hardest non-raid achievements were.

Sad to see horde get it.

Well, I just mean sad to see the opposing faction get it with a last second cap. If I was horde, I would be equally sad to see Alliance get it as well. Hardest Ach? I still cant decide. But battlemaster is definitely high up there, Loremaster does require some effort (although Everyquest and being able to query the server for completed quests since 3.3 helps) and so does What a Long Strange Trip (mainly the waiting, or random pvp ones). Im gonna say battlemaster for now, although Insane in the Membrane is probably the worst, even if you have the cash to throw around. Edited by Sanctuari, Dec 28 2009, 07:55 AM.

And I see pvp a little like raiding achievements too. the only reason why i dont see pvp in the same light as raiding achievements is because if you are in a guild, or at least a very prominent guild you cant really break off to do achievements with another guild or group. Where as pvp you can make the groups yourself.

Mep's Minion Posts: 10 Group: Members Member #245 Joined: December 27, 2009	you're drifting off a little here , there's a difference between time consuming and hard Insane in the Membrane is time consuming , not hard , its all old content :S loremaster is (to a point) hard because its sort of frustrating when you have 80 quests left and you're sure you didn't miss a zone in eastern kingdoms or kalimdor. and then have to hunt random-hard-to-find-quests down. but whats hardest? Battlemaster does require alot of knowledge, skills, gear, luck and time, also in some cases friends, so I'm voting it the hardest but if you really wanna think about it It's it's over Nine Thousand!, since it require everything you could think of to achieve remember we're arguing achievements where you start from scratch Edited by Hanan, Dec 28 2009, 01:08 PM.

Yes, chances are you're not going to afk your way to one, but compared to something like Arena Master in terms of skill, BM is nothing.

What i was asking is what is the hardest non-raid achievement FOR YOU!!!! For some achievements they might have come easier than others. But this is just a personal thing, not in the whole grand scheme of things. lol.

Mep's Minion Posts: 22 Group: Members Member #268 Joined: December 27, 2009	The problem with comparison is that they are difficult in different ways like grinding, time investment, skill, etc. That said if I must choose Battlemaster is a good comparison of the 3, and one that I've gotten. As far as hard ones I've yet to get, probably Arena Master.

As far as hard ones I've yet to get, probably Arena Master. I have to agree, The Dalaran books were the most time consuming for me so far, because you could go weeks without having a real book spawn and just get fake books. The RNG is unlucky for a lot of people I know. I got little sleep for a whole week and a half trying to get those books. The hardest in terms of skill required, I would say is Mine from Isle of Conquest. I still haven't gotten that one. Though I haven't tried it with a premade team yet. There aren't a lot of games for it compared to the other BG's. I wouldn't have thought that with it being the newest PVP battleground in the game. I've had games where I've capped all places but 1, or even all, then someone on the opposite side of the map would recap a point, and I'm screwed.
