    Hey gang,

    Got some information regarding achievements to share with you all:

    Will I log in after 1.20 and achievements will pop up instantly (earn level 50, defeat 100 enemies, complete this quest storyline, etc.)?
    By talking to the achievement NPC to first unlock the categories, achievements that have already been completed will become listed as completed.

    Where do I get the achievement rewards from? Do I talk to NPC or does it appear in their inventory when conditions are met?
    Rewards for special achievements that have rewards will be obtained by talking to the achievement NPC.

    How do you see another player's achievement-earned title?
    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.

    I feel a great disturbance in Eorzea, as if millions of gatherers and crafters suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced.

    +1 for the Star Wars reference.

    On a serious note. I'm very glad that we got confirmation that the majority of achievements will be retroactive, as I could have sworn I read somewhere a few weeks back that they wouldn't be. This news made my day.

    However, I empathize with those who have focused on DoH & DoL classes. They seem to keep getting the shaft. :/
