    As much as I love the achievements...

    I really hate all the ones that require me to go back and do stuff I just finished doing heh. Gathering all level 50, crafting all 40+, but now I have to go back X items in all the crafts I've already finished? :>

    If you want the tools, then you do the achievements. If you don't want them, then you don't do the achievements.

    The achievements are only worth doing if you want the reward that comes with it.

    I'm not even 50 in a DoH/DoL yet, but even I can understand the frustration that OP is dealing with.

    If you started levelling a DoH or DoL before achievements were introduced, you effectively have to go back and do one or (many) more achievements AGAIN as if you hadn't before, because you've likely already done them but they weren't accounted for when you did.

    Very frustrating, grueling and extremely time consuming.

    Ive been doing them all just fine, redoing them as some of you call it, but in truth, its not redoing anything


    I can honestly say that no one probly earned any of the tools pre achievement, the sheer amount of synths requires pretty much dictactes that

    you DID NOT do 1500 31-40 synths while leveling
    nor did you do 3000 41-50s

    yes you may have done half that, but more then that? probly not

    and now, to get to 50, you do maye 400-500 41-50 synths if even that



    but seriously, if you want something, go get it, in the end, no one was given any more advantage then you were in getting it, so its all fair

    Actually, if you want to make that argument, people who started DoH/DoL after achievements were released have an advantage over those that started before. Those that started after don't get their achievement progress wiped (however much that may be) while those that started before have had to completely restart the achievements from scratch.

    Any way you slice it, it's very frustrating to have previous effort be nullified when it comes to working toward long term goals. That, at least, everyone should be able to agree on, regardless of your stance on this.

    They want people to have a goal because that keeps them playing.
