✭✭✭✭✭Yes please.
Since not everyone agrees, they could just add its as another tab in achievement menu and lock titles behind character-specific achievements. It's that easy.Dro-m'Athra Destroyer | Divayth Fyr's Coadjutor | Voice of Reason

Dosuul✭✭✭In general would I like to see everything which you just collect account wide.
Which includes lore books, you just read, recepies and motifs, because you really collect them usually only with one char anyway.
Achievemtens could be nice too, as soon as you unlock an achievment with one char, it unlocks account wide.
You could even just add an "account" level of achievments, which means, you can still do every achievment per character, but you have one "account" achievment level. Plus! You can can add new account achievments, like get each class to 50 ... kill a huge amount of X etc.5 -
Consum98✭I'd just like to see how many achievement points i have on the whole from one screen. those achieved more than once are just shown up once on an overview screen.1 -

So do I, and if I had known motiv achievements were going to be important, I might have choosen differently back when I made them.Narvuntien wrote: »I have my crafts across two different characters...
But all it -really- means is that I will have to spend twice the effort to get there. Annoying, but no insurmountable difficulty.
And yes, I have made a checklist to see which of my crafters has learned what motiv page, to better make my way there.

✭✭✭✭Why?
You want an account wide summary? Fine.
Achieve's and titles are earned on the character you earn them on. There is no nee to share those, and other than furnishings (which can be purchased on the appropriate character and placed in your shared house), there is no purpose behind Achievement points other than completionism anyway. You already get shared dyes and shared styles (outfit wise, anyway)
If you're truly a completionist, wouldn't you want to actually do those things on each character?
If you're not, why does it possibly matter?Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

Some players do, some players don't. See my previous post about the different approaches to playing multiple characters!1 -
GarnetFire17✭✭✭✭I would like my horsies be account bound as well. After all if all our characters can have Championship Points on a new character why can't they have the same horse abilities as well?
unfortunately, they sell riding skill upgrades in the crown store so this major improvement isn't likely to happen.0 -

If Achievements occur, fine, but half the time I haven't a clue. Now, skyshards I care about, but as far as achieves for them, only so I can track them in the Achieve pane....
Achievements actually matter in this game though. There is a house I want to buy with gold.
. i have do 38 quests in a certain zone to get it so i have to grind quests I have already done on a single character. If i want to put skyshards in my house I have to get all the skyshards in all the base game zones minus Craglorn on one character. They allow 15 characters now they should do more to make it easier to play so many of them.1 -
Cpt_Teemo✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭Maybe not achievements for server wide but atleast consumeables
IE: Motifs, Recipes, Patterns and anything else you can add to your character using a consumeable that isn't server wide yet.
Would reduce the # of tickets from people accidentally using them on alts1 -

1. Log in to the character that already has the required achievement
2. Buy house
3. Start decorating
Houses are account-wide. Once you buy it on one character, all your 15 chars get to use it.The Moot Councillor1 -
KittyHazWares✭✭✭All achievements being character bound makes me only want to spend time on 1 toon. Especially for PVP rank!
ZOS sure would make more money on race changes and character slots if they made them account wide! *hint hint wink wink*
Come on guys I’m trying to persuade this to be a thing!!

✭I would also say no if i was sitting on 2-3k ach points on several characters and calling it working hard for each character lmao. Post a proof of you having 30k+ achievement points on multiple characters, then you can urge people to work harder.
Many many people sadly got no idea on how impossible it'd be to make more than one achievement character. They just comment on these threads with their own ristricted experience.
Anyway tho, i'm all up for this. Give these noers a seperate tab where they can keep working hard for 15 more achievement points, and let us see our account progress.

✭If ESO started this way then great.
Changing it now devalues everyone who spent time in getting achievements on multiple characters. Would be very disrespectful.1 -
SkullProX✭✭TheShadowScout wrote: »Pretty much this.
I mean, I -do- play a couple "main" characters I RP with when the occasion arises, and a couple "alts" I care less about and just made to try out something... and I would benefit from more accout wide stuff... but I dislike the idea and consider the current balance between accout-shared and character-specific stuff in ESO to be "just right".
Not to mention, I use the achievements to check on my character progress, see which skyshard or exploration location I may have missed on this or that character, which crafting style I have learned and yet to learn or which miniboss I forgot to hunt down in a public dungeon... that sort of thing.
And its not like achievements -do- anything except unlock dyes and titles, the former are already account wide, and the latter really should not be.
...if you really want it on an alt, spend the extra effort, just like you gotta spend the extra effort if you want to reach level 50, or some guild line, or your skills maxed, or your riding trained up, or whatever.
...and if you don't want to bother spending the effort, well, that that alt will have to do without this particular achievement/title.
And so in my opinion, the only thing missing is an "account overview" page, where people can see which achievement was achievend by which of their characters when, and so on... maybe with some extra goodies for multiple completions, like "finish mainstory with each class" or "get emperor in each alliance" or "reach level 50 with every race" and stuff like that...
...
Also everyone should remember that ESO is crown store powered now.
Meaning...
IF they would ever add some "convenience items" to help with any of this... it will come like the riding lessons, or research scrolls, or crownstore motivs. Does it still sound like a good idea to those "gimme crowd" people when they consider paying through the nose for it?
Extra effort? Do you know how much time it would take to get every single achievement in the game? It's at least 2-3.000 hours. And then I should do that on 5 characters, if I would like to play all the classes? Sure...1 -

Yeah, like vMA could have an achievement for each class as well. Clear vMA with nb, sorc, warden, dk, templar, and same for the no death achis.0 -

Well going by your thoughts, why should those be account wide, while achievements now? Work for the houses on all your chatacters, each should earn it for themselves. <- using the logic of those who said no2 -

This.
Actually, account-wide achievements would make it easier for everyone, since these days it can be really tricky to find a group to farm specific achievements. A lot of people just dont bother because they like playing alts.
Hardcore collectors will still have more points than everyone else, simply because there's a bunch of hard-to-get or grindy achieves.
And yes, the whole point of achievement system is to keep track of your progress which is very frustrating if you have multiple chars. You cannot even check when/if you got a specific dungeon thingy or bg achievement without relogging. I know, there is an addon, but I prefer to keep as few addons as possible since the game is pretty laggy.Dro-m'Athra Destroyer | Divayth Fyr's Coadjutor | Voice of Reason

Give a reason. Guarantee you have no legitimate reason for this where everything else including even your FRIENDS list is tied to your account and not your character name.
At this point they are no longer your characters achievments, they are yours.Valrien Dravic -- Level 50 Dunmeri Sorcerer (EP)

Very well said, there still are quite a few achievements which make you go out of your way to get them, or are grindy/hard to get. Making it account wide it would still be hard and take a long time to get everything, but at least you can play on diff classes, make it a little bit easier2 -

I mean, yes while I suppose more options are good, I've never seen ANY reason to really have achievements be separate at all regardless of potential personal reasons.
Kinda just pointless clutter rather than have everything be together.
Can anyone please explain this line of thinking to me so I can gain more understanding?Edited by Valrien on August 23, 2018 11:21PMValrien Dravic -- Level 50 Dunmeri Sorcerer (EP)
