10 year anniversary achievement is too much... ?

The_Boggart · May 18

Is this target fixed or, if not completed before the release of the chapter subsequent to GoldRoad do we have to complete that chapter as well

For anyone claiming that a skin is an adequate reward for an achievement like this… here is a skin that can be acquired in 30 minutes.

Here is another one.

Here’s a skin you can just go buy the writs for from a guild trader.

But yeah sure, hundreds to thousands of hours for a skin. 👍

The logic here is wild...

By that same logic, why bother going for the Godslayer title when you can get the Recruit title in 10 minutes?

Just because they're the same type of thing doesn't mean they hold the same weight.

The new skin will be super rare, because not many people are going to put in the time to get it. That's literally the entire point of it.

No people go for the Godslayer title because it’s more impressive to look at than Recruit.

All of the above posted skins appear to have more dev work put into them than the one that you get for putting the most work in as a player.

The topic of conversation in this post is not the skin, but the way to get it and the corresponding achievement. There is already a post discussing this skin on the forum

Would I have felt it necessary to remind people that skins are not hot commodities if it wasn’t insinuated that they were?

It may be super rare, but can someone tell that it is from the anniversary achievement by looking at it? Does it look like it is worth doing all of that work? Is it leaps and bounds better than the Dro-m'Athra skin from veteran MoL? It is a lot of work to do this achievement, and it is a lot more work that some people feel is fair.

Sure, it looks cool and has a lore tie-in, but I am not that impressed. It sort of feels like they just pulled the next Crown Store skin out and decided to make it an in-game reward.

Is Godlsayer really that much cooler than Fate's Chosen?

Is Dovahkriid really that much cooler than Mystic?

It's all subjective.

Achievements like “Master of the Mind” are the raiding equivalent of this achievement and what do they give?

A glowing flashy ram mount? A title?

Why is it that the one time you would expect a title, there just isn’t one?

I get why people would feel that the requirements for this are too difficult when the reward is so basic.

*yawn.
Just gonna leave this here from this discussion as the relevance is there.
From here: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/658597/adventurer-across-a-decade-requirements-are-too-much

If it ain't ^there^, you know why...

No skin off my back if Bethesdone wants to sink its own all-flags navy to "help" microsoft make a return on the $70B spent on Activision blizzard which it won't since more wayward souls are becoming wary that entertainment is no longer entertainment. Much rather it is a soulless cash-grabby gold maker that is pursuing a rather self-destructive goal which will undoubtedly render it insolvent in the long run. ("when" it happens and Zenployees have no job as a result of their own hubris, they are going to wonder what they did to do this to themselves & I won't even have to lift a finger since I'm just sitting back in the cave watching them do this to themselves consistently with all this pandaring, panda joke not intended, and thats on top of Xbox Losing it's Identity back in 2013 and being "microsoft gaming" being run by business first mentality because seriously... who in the right mind shuts down studios that got bought out by the very corporations that shut them down afterwards?)

Word of advice readers: Look elswhere for entertainment as Tamriel is not the place for honest gaming and this here will resonate with those who truly see the writing on the wall.

Do I care about what happens to me?: No...
Do I hypocritically care about what happens to Elder Scrolls Online?: Yes. Because If I didn't, I wouldn't be talking about it at all and watching all the magic that made ESO a semi-good game in it's early days become nothing more than the biggest white-washing penny pincher that it has become with all of these micro/macrotransactions and ponzi schemes.

I can't believe people are complaining about this achievement bc of the cost. In order to pay for the new chapter, you have to buy it. In order to play DLC you have to pay for it, or what most people do, subscribe to ESO+ for $15 a month, Do you complain each new chapter that has achievements? Do you complain that the Dark Brotherhood, Murkmire, Deadlands, Southern Elsweyr, etc exist? Oh no there's a skin for a dungeon DLC! Oh no there's a mount for finishing a new chapter DLC!

I have only played 2.5 years and am on the lower end of lower middle class, have never bought DLC. You people will just find anything to complaim about, never satisfied. 🙄

If you don't want to get the chapters and ESO+, or if you don't want to do all those quests, then the achievement is not for you👏

The game will go on....

Wildberryjack · May 21

They need to make this account wide if it isn't already. And I mean across servers, NA and EU. I don't care if things aren't shared, this should be. It's unreasonable to have to grind all of that TWICE. If we have it on one server the skin should be available on the other server.

Also a skin isn't enough for all that. They need to add a mount and a collectable furnishing at least.

majulook · May 21

It has been stated by ZOS that it is account based.

Not too much at all- and a little underwhelming for me personally. It’s basically made to be accessible to all- play the game for 10 years and quest- makes perfect sense to me for this type of achievement

This seems to imply "account wide" as in several toons can have the different questing achievements, much like AWA. They have never done anything truly account wide (both servers). I agree with Wildberryjack, it needs to be across NA and EU. There's nothing combat or crafting wise like champion point or skill limitations for questing that would give reason for not being server wide.

spartaxoxo · May 21

Many who prefer to keep questing related progress separate have rolled new toons on new servers because they didn't like AWA.

This achievement should not be server wide.

^This had me rolling. 😂

Honestly, what were they thinking when they had the idea to give away a skin so ugly for a task so monumental?

Or even a skin at all? lol

Shagreth · May 22

This may seem caustic or hyperbolic of me, but this reward is an insult. The game still has a broken reward system -- where most notable stuff end up in the store or worse, crates. What little they give us is behind RNG & FOMO (look at the recent Jubilee) or is just downright ugly. This skin is basically finishing the entire game just to look like a burn victim. Subjectivity aside regarding its look.. let's see the usual actors in these forums trying to argue themselves out of this fact.

@ZOS_Kevin Kevin, I have a LOT of respect for you and what you do.. so please transfer this feedback for us, they can do so much better, there's too many things monetized and very little actual rewards to earn via playing.
