I think account-wide achievements are overall a good thing and as someone who plays a lot of different characters for different activities I like the idea. That said, the way it is implemented on the current PTS is just really bad. Repeating achievements on other characters is an important part of ESOs endgame and adds replay value to a lot of content. Whether it's PvE players repeating hard achievements with interesting group compositions or on roles they are less familiar with, PvP players with multiple rank 50 characters or even those legends with master angler on every character, players have invested hundreds if not thousands of hours to achieve that. With the way account-wide achievements are currently implemented on the PTS, not only are any further repeats impossible, but all those already accomplished achievements will also be more or less wiped from history. My request is simply that repetitions of achievements need to stay possible and be acknowledged in the achievement tab. I think the two add-ons Account Achievements by QuantumPie and Kyoma's Global Achievements by Kyoma both show good ways of implementing global achievements that players have come up with. I absolutely belief account-wide achievements can be implemented in a way that makes all sides happy and doesn't ruin the game for those of us that enjoy repeating achievements. But currently it unfortunately isn't and I really hope this will be addressed before the feature makes it to the live severs.
