10 years to complete 1 achivment "Enraptured Service"

The point is 100% valid. Who in their right mind would sit there and do 10,000 pointless guildhests instead of spending the time doing more productive things?

That is a series of achievements I will never even bother trying to get. No value in it at all. There are plenty of much better ways for earning gil, so no - that is not a reason to do them.

The exact opposite of people like you. Completionists love these achievements, they will be done for sure.

There's no limit to how many guildhests you can do per day, so your point isn't really valid.

On the other hand, you *can't* do more than 3 provisioning missions a day. So what's up with that?

If you feel it is pointless....then simply don't do them. It's not like anyone is forcing you to go for that Achievement...

You could always just play the game instead of trying to focus on achievements. I don't understand the fad at the moment with achievements in video games these days.

They are hoping you subscribe for ten years and achieve it

I'm sorry, no one is going to do this. It's utterly pointless and is the very definition of tedium. Not that I really care about achievements, but I think the foundation for all of them is to encourage different play styles. Like explorers should have achievements for exploration, the elitist should have achievements for dungeons and raids. Like having the whole group kill X boss with level 1 weapons.

I fail to see what category do this task over and over a thousand times fall into. Not the completionist, not a sane one anyway.

Dear SE. Can you please make achivment alittle more realistic?
The achivment "Enraptured Service" is: "complete 10.000 guildheist".
That would take me 10 years if i did 3 guildheist every day or 27 guildheist every day for one year.
I really like to do achivments, i like the challange they give but please give me a realistic chance to complete them^^

Nowadays people want easy games and can't stand a little difficulty, like constantly doing the same quests for 10 years...
Sad!

I second this.
FFXIV:ARR isn't for the first 2 months, it's for life.
With your maths, 6 a day (very doable) is 5 years.
Imagine how boss you'll be in 5 years when you get that achievement...
I'll respect you.

Regardless what people think of achievements. Some are more difficult.. YES difficult. The difficulty is the fact that most people cannot stick to something/have the discipline to complete.
While i would never set out to complete 10.000 guild heist it would be fun to see it pop up one day in the distant future as completed.
I fished Lu Shang rod on FFXI people thought i was crazy. I found it fun.
Different strokes for different folks.

there is elite provisioning missions which you can do as much as you want
