When you might not have gathered the required number of times in every region?

Let's muddy the waters even farther with gathering leves that give bonus exp in terms of a leve completion bonus and when using guardian's favor, quest/mission rewards excepted with your gathering job, or just bonus exp gained from reading one of those GC manuals.

However, for every 10 levels you earned in a gathering class, you most likely made the number of gatherings they're asking for that grade (20, 300, 1000, 2000 and 4000) and I think you could make a strong case that, by default, you should have had the gathering achievements unlocked based on your level for the region associated with your starting city. (For example: if I'm a level 20 botanist from Gridania, I get the grade I and grade II achievements unlocked for the Black Shroud region.) But nothing more. The rest are on you to do.

Achievements are meant to be busy work. So let's get busy.

Hi normalforce

I been forced to do fishing @ LL to get guil-mark, Miner @ Ul'dah to get guild-mark & Botany @ Grid to get Guil-Mark ;p

I did it the way SE asked me to do it

Now they change their mind

no guild-mark
you need to do all region gathering
