    achievments?!?!?!

    so i finally go and check my achievements for gathering and not one of them are complete ...not even the easy ones. but i'm rank 50 and i gathered my arse off and should have every single achievement complete.

    does this mean none of my gathering counted prior to adding the achievement system? why in there right minds does someone that already did it have to start over and go farm them again? while others who are new will just get them naturally by going threw the process of leveling there gathering. i should literally have my 2 tools already?!?

    am i missing something or is this really the way they made this achievement? and if so fix it please for the love of god so i don't' have to gather 4000more times or even go to frigin grade 1 and gather again? please, i think most of us put in that time already. give us our rewards. by time i redo all of this they will probably become useless tools ...wtf. and ty.

    thats what i was thinking


    go gather more materials, you can make a fortune in the process

    we didnt take up gathering to sit and do nothing after all, go gather!

    fyi, we knew about this well before achievments were even added(we actualy thought itd be worse but some stuff was tracked beforehand) so its not like this should be a surprise unless you ignored all info and dev posts

    fortune or not it's just to much to be worth doing. i like doign things when i need them or am progressing threw, not gonna go farm 4000nodes just for this(new players are only farming 4k, i gotta do 8k? why cause se are frak ups? that's nice to know). i did it already. it's bs. yeah i'll eventually end up with it, but like i said above by then this tool will probably be useless. i only farm cobalt for most part ...and only when i need it. otherwise i been there done that. it's not like me or anyone else is out killing mobs over and over just to get the 100000mob kills right? no as they kill they are killing 2 birds. my birds are long dead>< and i'ma starve by time i get another kill. just saying this is very stupid of them.

    but anyway sorry if this was a old topic i wasn't allowed in forums for past 6months. and prior to them adding achievements it wasn't when they added the new rewards for them that are worth getting. it is really bs cause i could be using my new tools ...and by 2.0 i'm sure there will be crafted ones that are better. so they are just wasting our time. it don't really matter if we new, i would of been complaining then too. no matter what no way i'm starting over. it's just going to be casually gathering as i need. rant over... oh wait one more ...se u'r frigin all dumb and u should all be fired. k now i'm done. ty.

    How are they dumb? It's not like they could see into the future and know that they would make achievements. The only thing they could do is start everyone over, since you can level your DoL/H classes from 1-50 without gathering or crafting at all using quest exp.

    well that in itself is dumb, but i digress its still not really my problem to figure out. if the problem lies within they not having records of how many nodes were done by anyone prior to adding achievments? but either way then they should of made it different or something i dunno ..its not my job to think about it. it is natural hate in my head right now though knowing i should be done 100% with all gathering achievements. didn't really want to make this thread of all me just bitching. wanted to see if possible to have this fixed? did they say something in the older threads saying NO they can not do this ...and why? or is everyone just accepting it as is?

    all in all on a side not ...achievements are just over rated ps3 trophies either way and i won't do them for the sake of doing them and if gear from them are better then dungeons and endgame then they can watch 2.0 be a failure too. if i end up at a crystal ..i get the points. until then no thanks, thats just how i feel bout the hole system for achievements. and i can guarantee i'm not the only one. ..also they should all go and log into a ps3 for any online game and link up trophies for everyone they see and they will know how much people can give to pickles about trophies.

    If you don't care about the achievements you really have no room to complain especially as was stated we were warned about this way before they were implemented. Just do your thing and eventually with time you will complete them. If they get overshadowed by crafted tools later down the road then more power to you for not grinding out the achievements.
