Please relook at the You Got Game achievement

As it stands right now the achievement You Got Game has way too large of a requirement for most players to even have a chance to do. It requires 3000 A rank hunt kills and 2000 S rank hunt kills. The reason why this is out of reach for the majority of players is due to the 2k S ranks. The 3000 A is also obnoxious but at least they spawn frequently and there are a lot of them now. For the S ranks though they still have a multiple day cooldown and there are not many of them. The issue is compounded by the fact that the A Realm Reborn S ranks can be killed by one or at least a small group of max level players and the Heavensward will take less and less players as the expansion goes on which means that it will become harder and harder for players to even have a chance to participate in any specific spawn of an S rank.

My suggestion is to lower the number of kills needed to get this tiger mount or greatly increase the spawn rank of the S ranks. Or give us some way to trigger them more frequently via an item we can buy with tomestones and / or hunt seals. I have been playing since A Realm Reborn and only have 184 S rank kills to my name which is why this feels like a massively large amount of S kills for most players on the more populated servers. It is basically rewarding the cheaters who use an addon to know exactly when a hunt spawns in a zone and who then kill it without letting others even have a chance to participate.

As for the A ranks since their spawn was highly increased the 3000 is within the realm of possibility but still should be lowered as well.

It's a rare achievement for hardcore hunters. It's fine as it is.

No this is not reasonable. There are a grand total of 29 S rank hunts in the game as of this time (2 of which can not yet spawn). S rank hunts take about 3 days to respawn after being killed. There is no way to speed up this timer and you are dealing with all the other people on your server to even have a chance to participate in one of these. So if you are lucky you may get a handful of kills each cycle. So we are talking about many years to get anywhere close to 2k S rank kills if you are not on a low population server.

Assuming the servers are live every day, an S rank spawns every day, and you are able to attend at least one a day(highly unlikely combination), the S rank portion of the achievement takes a little less than 5 years and 5 months.

I'm not quite sure you have a grasp of the numbers involved here.

There are 17 S-rank monsters in the game, with a median respawn time of around 50 hours each. There are only ~3,000 S-rank spawns per year. Now factor in that most people need to sleep, eat, take breaks, have jobs, the possibility an S-rank may spawn while you are online, but nobody announces it until some large party has already killed it, or it spawns in a super remote area and despawns before anyone finds it. If you played FF14 all day every day and did nothing but hunt A and S ranks, and never missed a spawn it'd take you just shy of 1 year to complete.

I hunted pretty hardcore for a while, and we were lucky to hit more than 1 S rank a day, realistically we're looking at more like 5-6 years.

1000 A and 200 S would be hardcore enough especially for those who haven't already been hunting since the beginning of time.

Just guessing, but I assume that the achievment is exactly for those people, who hunt out of passion.
I myself am at 550ish but I know several people with 1000+ and some people on my server seem to eat centurio seals in stacks of 1000, because they were literally hunting all the time in HW (even with BiS and nothing to upgrade anymore), pretty sure some of them already have the mount.

You can't expect that every new achievment mount is achievable within a year to (new) players. There is no reason whatsoever to expect that.

The achievment is an upgrade of similiar achievemnts of ARR and HW, therefore it's pretty obvious that it's targetted on those who did already hunt a lot and already have the achievments for 200 and 500.

So instead of being handed out at SB release to thousands of players it's now a rare mount. We need more of those tbh.

Its not meant to be an easy achievement.

You arent meant to rush it.

It's fine the way it is.

It's an achievment...not a "give me it because I want it"

It's probably similar to the 2000 mentor roulette mount. They probably don't expect everyone to get it. I probably won't ever get either of them but I'm ok with that.
