    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.
