Would love to know as well, I've been playing from launch and this is one of about 8 trophies that I still need.

It still drops; I collected it in the Shadowfen delve a couple weeks ago.

Thanks, how long did it take... grinding for the rest was easy... this one makes me want to never play again

The rest dropped within 1-2 hours, everything else that I seem to kill seems to drop within about that same time. For a common achievement, why is it being so difficult

It took me almost four years to complete my first collection achievement. Those can be absolutely brutal.

Dwemer is quite easy. I grinded that one. The rest... I'm not crazy.

These are some of the worst achievements to do, but they're situationally easier to complete now, at least. Back in my day we actually couldn't farm certain ones because they would only drop from creatures you could get loot from, and before One Tamriel and level scaling some creatures just weren't high enough level to do that, depending on your starting zone! But yeah, if you're really going for these, expect it to take many hours. It's a total slog and there's no respite.

(just because i can never remember where anything is in that achievement menu)

Before One Tamriel, if you needed the Multifaceted Eye on a Pact character, you had to farm DSA. One round has... I think, four Nix Hounds.

Originally, Covenant characters who missed out on the Spiked Collar were straight up screwed, until ZOS added some Jackals to Craglorn.

Dominion got hit hard early on, because the Flesh Attronachs were bugged, and couldn't drop their trophy at all, and the only place you can farm Flesh Attronachs? Malabal Tor, which you'd be overleveled on a Dominion character.

To be fair, on PC, you used to be able to move trophies between characters and choose who got the progress. But that changed around 1.7 or 1.8.

Yeah they changed moving around trophies before One Tamriel patch, like a good while before, so people like me who were saving that particular set of achievements for later were hecking boned. I think I got like 90% of these done before One Tamriel and got the Flesh Atronach part and maybe a few others afterward. Either way, to the point of the OP, it's totally doable! Also make sure you look up all the types of mobs that drop the kind of loot you're looking for. I think some of them have easier-to-farm places but they come from mobs you might not associate with their drop automatically. I think, specifically, the Tomb Urn is the one I'm thinking of, too.

I got my Crypt Jar in Gandranen Ruins a couple of days ago. I took me several attempts over a few days though.
