    1.) The idea of the tank achievements + mounts/titles was to encourage people to play tanks in a time when we had a tank shortage that was not attributed to tanks being massively boring.

    2.) The fact people just do Deltascape 3.0 (Normal) as an 8-man group to farm through these achievements defeats the purpose of these achievements (not sure if all are affected). I have no respect for people who do this.

    I dont think they are doing it to get your respect, I think they just want the tank mount which can only ever be an achievement of endurance, not of skill.

    Let me rephrase my choice of words then, since you liked to cherrypick that phrase.

    I think the tank achievements were a good idea to encourage tank play in duty finder or duties that were in need of tanks. I also think being able to "endure" them by spamming the easiest duty available was a bad choice.

    Luckily we have no issues now so it isn't a problem, but it is objectively a bad design choice.

    Add.:
    "I have no respect for X" was merely an expression I used to underline my disdain for this being possible. Im well aware noone cares about me.
