I think it would be cool if ZoS implemented a way to check peoples achievements in game (even just your total points). It would give achievements something to be proud about and show off. Thoughts?

This is primarily used in other MMO's to keep players out of content...As in, "Link achievement if you want in this" x activity. Pretty stupid too, since someone might meet every other requirement and had yet to clear whatever is asked for.
In other words, it's used (read; abused) as a gate.
If you dont think this would be abused in ESO, you're fooling yourself.

people ask you to link your achievement already. unless you're in a progression run, you SHOULD have to link a clear to join a group that is farming vet trials. no one wants dead weight in hard content.6 -

Anyway, OP is asking for an "examine" function, not a "link" function. Which might actually be worse, from your perspective, but is definitely not what you're talking about.
One thing I'd kinda like to see is a "Master List" of achievements. Keep achievements by character, but also have an account-wide list.Edited by MasterSpatula on August 17, 2019 10:19PM"A probable impossibility is preferable to an improbable possibility." - Aristotle2 -

✭✭All must bow before my massive wax harvesting skillz!
In short, no thank you. I've run across-- not been a victim of, personally-- achievement point total mockery in GW2, which puts your total front and center for any rando to look at whenever they want. It's a stupid and pointless function for a large portion of the player base. Linking relevant achievements for certain types of content should be more than enough.
kinda agree with your chicken scratch btw

...is that not why they made titles for the good ones anyhow?I think it would be cool if ZoS implemented a way to check peoples achievements in game (even just your total points). It would give achievements something to be proud about and show off.
But there -could- be more titles for achievement hunters... (I really want to see one "Over-achiever" title for getting them all...)
Won't happen.pleasefortheloveofallthatisgoodmakeachievementsaccountwideokaythereisaiditimsorryitwonthappenagain
At -best- they might sell achievement mirroring like skyshards or skill lines, but... who'd buy that, seeing how it made no difference???
What I -would- want to see... is an "account achievement overview page" they could put that on the character selection screen, and it would show which character of yours has completed what achievement when, as well as an "account total" score... and possibly rewards for multiple achievement completions! Like... do mainstory with each class, get these "mannimarco" outfit bits unlocked, reach level 50 with each race, get that special "tamriel map model" furniture unlocked, get emperor in every alliance, get that special "emperors coronation robes" costume unlocked, etc. Stuff like that anyhow.5 -

It's already used like that. Some guilds already ask for linking achievements. This idea would just take the hassle of linking it.0 -

If farming Trials is that important to you, get a pre-made group together and don’t PUG.
I thought that concept was learned in group dungeons ... but apparently it eludes some players that progress on in content difficulty.

✭✭How do you expect anyone to get experience if you dont let them in?

Precisely.
Yes, we all know get that people want to be successful in group content.
But @Kel is 100% correct: how to people get to learn this content if no one is going to give them a helping hand?
Less than 1% of the playerbase will have learned new content "from scratch" - that is without any form of help at all.
Most of the "epeen warriors" will either have spent time on PTS learning this by failing, many, many times, or have watched streams - read walkthroughs by people who did.
They want "content ready" group mates but are too damned lazy and entitled to help those group mates get "content ready".

Are you being ignorant on purpose? You don't try and get into a vet trial farming/score group if you've never beaten or progressed it before. i've seen too many people lie about their experience to join farming groups and ruin the group for everyone else because they don't know any mechanics and don't ask because they don't want to be found out. If you need to learn the mechanics, run it on normal a bunch, and then start running vet while asking questions. Don't just dive into the deep end and expect everyone to carry you.Xbox NA healer main

I think you're missing what i'm saying by a little bit. I'm not talking about needing a vMoL complete in order to do a casual vMoL fun run(in which people have no problem teaching). I'm talking about needing a vMoL complete to do a vMoL score run or hard mode/Fang Focused/Void Avoided. If you've at least ran the trial on normal a bunch, of course you can join a casual vet trial, but trying to jump into a vet trial when you don't even know the basics never works. And the people usually aren't random craglorn pugs, but guildmates who just aren't on the level as some other guildmates, so they're half-pug or something.Edited by Tsar_Gekkou on August 19, 2019 6:29AMXbox NA healer main

I think the problem people have is asking for vet achievements for norm. Don’t lie and say it doesn’t happen, I can say for a fact it does and in every other MMO where you can. It’s human nature to want the path with least resistance after all.0
