EDIT: on timing, as a high vet among leveling dolmens, you can solo them. If you go in a circuit on the zone you need, the first one you took down should be about to reset, by the time you've finished the third. And you can just bounce from dolmen to dolmen. Needless to say, this is pretty disruptive to the leveling crowd, you're going to be one shotting most enemies you encounter. But, it means you can finish this very quickly, if you're willing.

I missed this comment earlier. To add to what @Nestor has already said about this, what I did when going after the remainder of the generals I needed for this achievement was to hunt them in the leveling zones, but if people were around of the appropriate level for the zone, then instead of just going around slaughtering everything I'd stand back and heal and/or buff the other folks. I was doing this on a Dragonknight, so mostly I was popping Igneous Shield on them, and occasionally throwing in a heal from my resto staff. I'd also occasionally throw in a light attack here and there, but not often enough that the lowbies weren't doing the bulk of the work.

Yeah, I was doing it on a Nightblade with 2h and bow, so my options basically boiled down to Mark Target and murder everything in sight.

That said, I was using Swallow Soul or something when other players were around. Not acid spray and dawnbreaker.

That's an easy one really, the same few spawn in each zone. just cycle till you get them. I think its 3 or 4 generals per zone its been quite a while.

IF YOU ARE ONLY WANTING GENERALS

Its best to farm your non vet zones as you can group which bosses you need

2nd Main Zone - Bosses 1-4
3rd Zone - Bosses 5-8
4th Zone - Bosses 9-12
5th Zone - Bosses 13-16

IF YOU ARE WANTING GENERALS and DROPS

Either farm Cyrodiil or Your 5th Gold Zone, and pray you get a general you need. Cyro seems to spawn more generals in my opinion.

It's not a quick achievement, but not that bad. I have it on multiple alts. Doing dolmens in cyrodiil seemed to make it easier for me to get lucky.
