    I feel like this system and the grand company ranks could use a huge facelift. There's still many ranks we will probably just never get to in the GC because it seems SE has abandoned it in favor of other pursuits. You can even see them if you view your current rank!

    Would be nice to have other options for companies as well like Temple Knights, Ala Mhigan Resistance, or Sekiseigumi. Just to throw out some examples lol.

    Hell, the Firmament had a tease for an Ishgardian branch of the Adventurer's Guild that never went anywhere, why not build on that too?

    We could have other companies, but it can't be in PvP because new players are able to do that at level 30 and would be spoiled on which companies we have allied with to the point of being able to coordinate playfighting or training (don't tell them it's all of them).

    Fortunately, it's more realistic now because we are forced to freelance in PvP anyway.

    I could go for some more rewards for achievements but the main issue for me is the absurd disparity between the amount of time it takes to get all the rewards from content and the amount of time it takes to complete the achievements. If you do the Pteranodon grind, you'll have literally everything that's obtainable from the firmament by the time you're 10% done with the grind. Then you're left bashing away at rocks and crafting endlessly for another several months before you get any kind of pay off. A lot of the achievements are like this. It takes 30-60 minutes to get all of the rewards from the Fall Guys event. Then another 50-100 hours of grinding for nothing but the title.

    I think it would be less painful if there were a few more rewards for content and if they took slightly longer to obtain.

    If you feel as if these rewards are unfulfilling, why do you believe someone would fall into unhealthy habits for them? Achievements like these are SUPPOSED to be long-term and voluntarily, for those who are actually invested in the type of content they're from. Those who actually like or invest time into PvP will eventually get this title with time because, well, that's how achievements work.

    Just because it isn't a mount or glamour doesn't mean that it's not worthwhile to someone, a title is still something that can be on your character name or adventurer plate at all times. Hell, there are groups and people that are still dedicated to getting The Necromancer because it's proof of completion of one of the games current biggest challenges, people that actually enjoy the content or challenge won't care about the exact reward as long as there's something as proof of completion, some won't even care if there's a reward at all if they feel that way either, considering an achievement itself is "proof" as well.

    If anything, instead of going back to adding "better" rewards to old, in-due-time achievements that are catered to very specific groups, they need to keep continuously adding things to the actual accessible achievement shop. Despite more and more achievements being added by patch, there aren't enough purchasable rewards to serve as an incentive to even continuously grind or slowly work towards unrewarded achievements, no matter if it's a casual or hardcore player, everyone will run out of things to buy and reasons to even go back to the shop within a VERY short time of playing the game. I have over 200 achievement certificates that have NOWHERE to go or ANYTHING to be used on, not even an accumulative achievement could make up for that if the certificate I earn from it is also going to be just as useless.

    I liked the ocean fishing achievements, they were quite nice.
    I would not consider myself to be an achievement hunter at all though, if I happen to complete some requirements for something, then it was mostly by chance.
    I suppose it would be nice if they added more frame kits/minions or something to the achievement rewards.

    If you think alpha wolf is unhealthy don't look at the levequest achievements.

    I already made a post explaining it's going to take a person 7 years to get the achievement.
