VMA needs a Trifecta achievement

gamerguy757 · October 2021

As I have been nonstop practicing vVH (last boss still kills me 😭😭😭) I sit here wondering why doesn’t VMA have a Trifecta Achievement or Title?
It could be “Clear all Stages of veteran Maelstrom Arena under 45min, with no death and using no sigils”
And the title would be “Deadlands Matial Master”

I thought at first Maelstrom Flawless required no sigils so I unbound my synergy button as to not accidently take it.

Then I realised when I got it I didn't have to...

Would hate to having go back and do it all again.. But for future arenas I think it should be.

Sure, adding achievements in general could be nice. Not only trifecta. I had a lot of fun running through lava or making Flesh Atronach killing banekin in Vateshran ^^

But 45 minutes seems kinda low. MA afaik was designed for 90 minutes, so at least 60 minutes would be nice

I'm all for new challenges but a vMA trifecta wouldn't really challenge any of us vets plus its older content and ZOS caters to a different crowd nowadays. Neat idea though OP!

If they disallow mythics then sure. Flawless vMA is a joke with Pale Order.

Doesnt matter in poisonstage where rng decides IF u gonna make it without dying and yes the rest of the arenas are a joke. My flawless was without sigils, not under 45 min though

This has been touched on before. ZOS isn’t going back to change old content like such in this particular manner. In response to the desires of trifecta achievements ZOS put them in the BlackRose Prison arena first. But VMA will always stay the same.

The stages that ruin my Flawless runs are
Stage 3: I forget to kill a Matriarch then I get hit by a shockwave and heavy attack.
Stage 5: Shockwave
Stage 7: Poison RNG

My flawless runs are usually 39-41 min, and that’s with grabbing chests

Pale order is largely irrelevant. It won't help with the poison stage.

I actually found Sithis to be pretty solid. Th extra health and the extra resistances and gaining nearly 2K health recovery (after Sithis and sugar skulls food) went further in the other rounds than Pale Order does. And my no death run happened the first attempt with Sithis on.

Even tho I've come to despise vMA, I wouldn't mind seeing them add a Trifecta achiev. But it would need a title that's wayyyyy more epic than "The Flawless Conqueror".

Which is pretty hard I'd say, still one of the best sounding ones.

Because these titles where not a thing when this content was released. vDSA and vanilla veteran dungeons dont have them either.

i would like that 40 mins would be ok but cool thing would be 30 mins like play very fast burns etc like 600k no sigil run ^^

Yes, I think if they added it, it would be sigiless, no death, and under 30 mins, basically a 600+ score.

LesserCircle · December 2022

I wouldn't mind but that title isn't that good.

spartaxoxo · December 2022

I think they should give us a new arena rather than updating the old ones.

Malmer · December 2022

new arena aswell but i think update the hp pools and score get a trifecta achievement or so what ever would be cool aswell

dinokstrunz · December 2022

almost jeah you need 29:54 for 600k ^^

Adding a trifecta achievement for Maelstrom would be great, I would also like to see Dragonstar Arena revamped in difficulty as it’s easier than most hard-mode DLC dungeons and a trifecta achievement added to that aswell.

It would more than likely be 45 minutes like Vateshran or higher as an under 30 minute run is unrealistic for your average, above average player. You have to have zero performance spikes, no chest looting, and you would need multiple loadout changes mid-run.
