    gathering achievements' requirements

    recently i have been leveling my mining and just hit level 37 couple min ago.

    so, i found out that every time when i almost hit level (8, 18, 28, 38), I get an achievement. if this is the case, it means I need to level my mining from level 1 to level 50 3times in order to get the reward.

    what i want to ask is that, is there any info about SE remaking these achievements? since it only needs DoH to level up from 1 to 50 one time to get their reward, I think DoL should be the same too.

    so..what i noticed is that I get a mining achievement at these levels (8,18,28,38), and i guess i will get the one that require 4000 times of mining by level 48. so, all the way from level 1 to level 48 only complete one area's achievement. e.g. "A miner of life for me: Black Shroud"
    However, In order to get the item reward, I need to complete La Noscea and Thanalan too. isnt this mean I need to level up 3 times ? (Black Shoud + Thanalan + La Noscea)

    You don't need to "level", even at level 50 you just need to mine in that areas for the required amount of times in the various nodes

    In short he means that the requirements for the Crafting Achievements compared to the Gathering ones are disproportionate and he's right. It takes about 3 times the effort/time to get a single Luminary tool for DoL than it does for DoH.

    He doesn't literally mean level, he's just implying that the effort is equivalent to levelling the class 3 times.

    I wouldn't want them to change it. But knowing SE and their prior habits they'll change it to make it much easier as soon as I get the Luminary tools!

    Just be happy that you're gaining achievement points as you level up instead of having to start from scratch at lv50.

    Its an achievement. Not a random crap you get while levelling. DoH needs ingredients to do their achievements, which probably will ends up spending about same amount of time if they were to gather the mats themselves.

    I would say that the materials you've gathered from levels 1 through 50 as a gatherer will hardly be enough to get you from 1 to level X as a crafter. If you aren't doing crafting leves to level, you will probably end up mining three times longer to fuel your crafting expeditions, especially at the higher levels.

    Where most gatherers will say, "Hey this place is giving low XP, time to move to a harder area."

    The approach may be more appropriate is, "I still need more materials to catch my craft up. Let me switch regions that provide similar materials i.e. iron, and get the materials I need there."

    You are actualy off in your calculations on DoH

    it takes 1.5 -2 times what you would normaly need to go to 50 to get all their achievments, unless you go the "synth very low exp synths to 50" route which people do not do

    since you add in leves, and manuals to most peoples leveling, it can almost be up to 3 times to 50 by that standard to get their achievment


    and its not so bad....ive done 1, working on 2nd and 3rd at same time right now

    and with gathering, less focus on the end result, more focus on the items you are gaining in mass to sell and use would be a better way to look at it.
