Well that's a lot of questing.

Is this achievement going to be in the game permanently? So there's no rush to get all of those questlines done before a certain deadline?

shouldn't that list of story lines also include the Imperial City main story line?

IC is a PvP zone, and the achievement seems to be 100% PvE related, so I don't think so.

Well i know it will surely please to a lot of players but personally i wished i could avoid to get that in my collections.

I have already so much things i hate (and yes i repeat i hate as mount, pets, and skins and not speaking of the NB red glow that you avoid to answer) that i do not feel appealed to open my collections often.

So if i do not do at least 1 of the achievement required i can avoid to get that right ?

If you don’t use any of these things in your collection, it shouldn’t be an issue. Alternatively, if there are just a few that you like, you can favorite them and not have to scroll through a lot of stuff you never use. I really like the favorites feature.

@ZOS_Kevin Is the achievement based on the account or a character? Suppose you have all the required achievements on your account but completed with several different characters on that account?

LMarshall910 · May 13

@ZOS_Kevin Will this be an out of game achievement as well as an in-game achievement? I.e. a Steam Achievement / Xbox Achievement / PlayStation Trophy? If so, how many points will it be worth? I'll only have to do the West Weald quests by the looks of it :-D

Sordidfairytale · May 13

The quests can be completed on different characters? Or do they all need to be completed on one character?

It's account-wide, so different quests can be completed with different characters and they will all add to the achievement.

JoeCapricorn · May 13

Every now and then, I'll get the urge to do it all over again... every quest, every zone, every story. Absorb it all once more.

I've had that urge come to a head this past weekend, when I decided to do just that on my Arcanist.

When the new chapter comes, I'll do that on my main character, the OG, the one I've put 200 days of playtime on.

But when I come back round with my Arcanist, months and months down the road, I will do it all over again

Yes this. I'm assuming it's across the account since acheivements are mostly account based now? not that it matters much if there is no time limit to complete it

What I'm more curious about is what outfits are the models using? they don't look like armor, but they also don't really looks like any other outfit or undergarments in the game that I've seen.
Maybe the color is throwing me off?

It has a PvE main story questline which is an important part of the Planemeld story arc. it should be part of it. to be honest, I'm not sure why this achievement doesn't include at least some of the dungeons. not all of them but the Imperial City dungeons and any dungeons beginning with Wrathstone are part of the story arcs the achievement includes.

Based on Account. So as long as it is completed on a character, then you should be good.

"This new Achievement arrives with the launch of the Gold Road Chapter and Update 42"

Love this. Questing is how ESO has expanded Tamriel for fans for 10 years, so questing is it's own reward...but...

This rewards questing, is it in anyway locked to the release of a Gold Road? Can it be earned after the update? Do I need to power through the missed quests before release?

you can earn it whenever you want, the achievement simply gets added with update 42.

Appears to be locked to the release of Gold Road. One of the requirements is West Weald, which is the new area for Gold Road .....

Lorros · May 15

I'll need to finally head into these zones and complete these!

Sarannah · May 15

Wow, seems cool! Thanks ZOS!

Could you maybe also please add the achievement name itself as a title in-game for reaching this achievement? Would love to wear: "Adventurer Across a Decade" on my characters. To show how much of the game I have completed, and that I am mainly a quester.

Just wanted to follow up here on this. As @LunaFlora mentioned, you can complete this any time after is launched in June. This is not a limited time task.

Love it. Simple as that.

Thank you all for the many wonderful goodies that you've been giving us this year. The skin looks nice!

Based on Account. So as long as it is completed on a character, then you should be good.

I read somewhere that both Gold Road and Necrom have to be completed on the same character for this to work.

You answered this with "Based on Account" but also "a character". To me that means singular, but the tone implies that you are agreeing that, yes, you can complete each on different characters.

If I complete Necrom on one character, and then Gold Road on another, will the epilogue quests still be triggered?

ETA: I answered my own question, please disregard

I finally found the achievement in Holiday Events, and it does indeed count regardless of what character you do it on.

ETA, AGAIN: In spite of it showing on my achievements as complete, I have now had it affirmed for me that the last two quests wont show up unless both Gold Road and Necrom are completed on the same character
