[Dev 1081] Achievements

[Rizon]

Hey gang,

Got some information regarding achievements to share with you all:


By talking to the achievement NPC to first unlock the categories, achievements that have already been completed will become listed as completed.


Rewards for special achievements that have rewards will be obtained by talking to the achievement NPC.


Achievement-related titles will be displayed in the widget that appears when checking another player in-game.

Please note that the following types of achievements will not be instantly unlocked upon speaking to the NPC because these stats will be reset and begin counting from patch 1.20 onwards:

• Achievements related to the number of synths
• Achievements related to the number of gathers
• Achievements related to the number of additional materia melded
• Also achievements that involve collecting items such as:
  Obtain Templar’s Chain Coif, Templar’s Haubergeon, Templar’s Sollerets and Templar’s Tassets will only be completed by speaking to the NPC while all of the items are equipped. Therefore, even if all of the items were obtained in the past, the achievement will not be completed unless the player still has the items in 1.20.

Boo<hoo hoo> on all the lost Synths. Seriuosly thanks for the update

One of the achievments should be "most time spent waiting for this game to get better." There would be a whole lot of people running neck and neck for this achievement.

lol, like i'm gonna go back and mine a grade 2 node 300 times just for some useless achievement. fts.

I'm glad my cooking is still low enough to get the low rank synth achievements. I'm screwed when it comes to gathering however. The best gathering reward will presumably for getting all 3 classes to rank 50 anyway so I'm not fussed.

You can get the low-rank achievements regardless of your actual class level >.> If I'm not mistaken the achievement says to complete a number of synths within a certain recipe level range, not character level range. Same for gathering, you can still go to the lower grade nodes and gather even at 50.

I know that but like others have said I'm not going to mine 300 grade 2 nodes for an achievement. I don't see why these can't be done automatically. If you have a rank 20+ in a DoL then of course you've gathered 300 grade 2 nodes or whatever. Same with the synthing ones.

It can't be done because there's simply no record of it. One could assume but there's no way of 100% knowing exactly how many of a specific grade you've gathered at. I get what you're saying but the reason it can't be done is again because they simply have no record of it.

But it's simply impossible to go from rank X to rank Y without doing a minimum of Z gathers or synths. That's why you shouldn't need a record of it. This can be calculated with simple maths based on the max EXP per synth/gather and the amount of EXP it takes to cover that range. No one wants to waste hours of their time gathering or synthing low rank trash just for an achievement. The reward for these will be low rank and thus useless at 50.

You can gather materia mediums for those achievements.

For those who acquired the 100,000 enemies defeated achievement already, does that only apply to enemies that you gain EXP from?

I got 50,000 back in Feb. Recently, I've been farming sheepskin to level up Leather making fleece and have killed at least 7k sheep (this is how many arrows I've went through so far) and just wondering if all of this farming is double duty.
