    Is it no longer possible to farm the Tank Mounts solo?

    I was at 34 Dungeons before the Patch. Yesterday I was at Shisui and after the Dungeon I still had 34 wins.
    Was it in the Patch Nodes? Did i miss something?

    A reward to group up as a tank and you admit to exploiting it.

    What are you talking about?
    Nowhere does the description say that you have to be in a group.

    LOL, it's a reward for tanking in a group. Why else do you think only tanks get it.

    Nobody ever told me that. Its an achievement for clocking 300 runs of instanced content. If it was intended to reward grouping, they would have designed it to only work off of "adventurer in need" status or something like that. Its a reward for playing tanks a lot. Its a reward for putting up with the least number of slots in content, low DPS thus slow questing and farming, tons of skills essentially useless for solo, higher demands put on you by the community, and so on.

    Please, show me where the description is stating "tanking in a Group".
    I can have a reward for raising 200 Player. Does that mean I have to be in a Dungeon as a Healer? No
    I can have a reward for 10.000 Fates. Does that mean I have to them in a Group? No.

    I am not a tank main and have no idea what my own progress is towards any of those mounts, but I always figured that 'undersized parties' wouldn't count. That is pure assumption though. Everyone I know with a tank mount tanks everything from dungeons to at least EX trials in synced content.

    It doesn't have to be synced as far as I know. I remember groups of 7-8 tanks farming t4 for their mounts back in HW, and I'm pretty sure it was all unsynced.

    Either way, the achievement text doesn't actually specify whether it has to be synced. So I dunno, maybe the newer achievements do.

    The ones they added with Shadowbringers can't be farmed quite as easily as T4 or Garuda Ex, but I made a ton of progress while farming The Great Hunt Ex unsynced. The extremes it requires are 61+ and that means anything lvl 70 and up will do the job. So yeah, the new ones are almost as easily farmable.

    This is striking me as an entitled cry for a free mount without understanding why the incentive was added in the first place.
