    Pretty sad when there is an achievement based off of killing blows rather than engaged enemy kills. It's even more frustrating that healers get ZERO credit towards this achievement and they're literally a necessity to PvP. How has this not been addressed? Oh...... right..... super busy with mini games that are even worse than pvp to keep people busy with endless grinds. lol.

    Scholars are a dps class with extra healing skills, white mages have a 30s cooldown instant kill, its not overly difficult to get kills, just dont expect to have the highest

    It doesn't matter, the achievements based on killing blows are biased against tanks and healers. Its like creating achievements based upon the amount of heals you've done and saying a class like monk can eventually grind it out with second wind. It can happen, but at a snails pace.

    Oh sure, i agree that its biased but its not downright impossible to get kills, its fairly easy honestly (although tanks kick out crazy damage if you build them for it, its not much use having vit stacked on a tank for slaughter anyway

    Not impossible, just improbable. But that only applies to slaughter mode.

    That would actually be really really really funny if there was some achievement based on HP restored via Second Wind. Like "Broken Wind- 1,000,000 HP restored via Second Wind ability." They could put that one right under the Honesy Gillionairre achievement in the list.

    I find it in most Slaughters I'm in, ranged DPS do usually most damage and get the most kills. Especially when slaughter was 1st introduced. With time it have evened out a bit.

    It's probably very hard to implement a system that yield a 100% fair results based on performance. There simply is too many variables to consider.
