No longer diadem achievements obtainable

[Canadane]

They have NEVER removed post-1.0 achievements before. EVER

That’s not exactly true. The Fold achievements no longer exists.
I was a decent chunk through that when SE decided to drop The Fold for The Feast only and give next to no warning the achievements were going as well.

Don’t get me wrong, I too am upset at achievements just leaving the game. Especially ones with shy grind to them!

They do still exist, actually.

The Fold's achievements were converted into Feast achievements in the 4.0 patch, that's why the Feast has many extra achievements that are nearly identical.

If you cared for the achievement you would of gotten it when it was still new. It’s like the 2.0 players who cry for missing out on 1.0 because the game got revamped. You were in your mother’s womb? Should’ve burst out like a Xenomorph ran to Game Stop and picked up a membership card.

I'm sad. I wanted the achievement but nobody plays Diadem. I was hoping for a revamp or something. If they're just gonna basically delete the entire thing, then it's pretty sad. :/

When I joined the game, it was 4.3 already. :/

Wasn't available for my country at the time. Is it really bad to want them to, I dunno, make an offline version of 1.0 so we can just play for the story or something? I think it would be cool and they could reuse the assets to save time, make a new game to sell for 60 bucks or something.

Diadem is actually being revamped for Ishgard Restoration. The issue is whether or not the achievements will return along with it, either as is or with revised requirements.

The preliminary patch notes are worded in such a way that implies they will not return. That's why so many people would like to see a dev response—there's a lot of frustration and confusion at the moment.

That's a rather deceptive argument. Aside from not accounting for players who weren't around when Diadem was 'new' some of the achievements were very much a matter of pure luck. I'm one of the lucky ones who managed to clear the emergency mission successfully but I can easily see how others may not have had that same opportunity due to how often groups failed to work together.

Hopefully the achievements will still be obtainable as of 5.1 - and if they aren't then we should have had forewarning that they were going to be removed.

I got 93 more monsters to kill. I didn’t care for it back then. I also chose not to get the heart emote when it was free for the event. I also could of gotten the ruthless gillionaire achievement back in 1.0. Sure I would love to get old unique things, but I made the choice not to get them back then. I accept that. To the people who were unfortunate to get the achievement, it just makes the achievement so much more rare and enjoyable to those who got it. If everything was handed out like candy life would be dull. The value of an achievement is only based on what people make it.

That achievement will be replace with another and no one cares if you have the ruthless gillionaire achievement. It’s all worthless. The pride is all in our minds.

Btw SE please don’t get rid of the achievement and bring back Ruthless Gillionaire. Thank you

just wanted to point this out myself, so I'd expect that some of the Diadem achievements will be merged in with some other content. Maybe with the next Eureka thingy?

[Avidria]

Just for a visual reference,this is what is going to vanish. Yep, I've only done that once.

Possibly silly question here but I can't seem to find this anywhere in the achievement list... where can I even find the Diadem achievements?

They’re under Exploration, then Duty.
