It is supposed to invoke that old school feel of amazement, like in vanilla WoW when you saw someone with raid gear, you know they had to work hard to get it.

    This achievement should not be easier to get.
    To be fair, I don't think making the achievement one tier down would make it easy. Bring Your A/S Game IV requires 1,500 and 1,000 respectively. That seems a bit more reasonable.

    It isn't supposed to be reasonable though. The more insane it is, the more wow factor it has. The insanity of achieving them is what makes them so special.

    Somethings are meant for only a handful to have and for the rest of the community to stare in awe at.

    I wouldn't call one tier down any less absurd. Personally, I couldn't care less. I'll get it eventually if I feel bothered to. That being said, I think what people dislike about this particular achievement is the time gate. They can't freely work on it at their own pace-- at least not like you would relics, mentor mounts or even the prior PvP rewards. There is a set restriction on hunts that spawn and what server you're on also influences it.
