So I’m trying to get my things together and actually do this achievement. However I’ve noticed i am missing progress in achievements I’ve already done before I faction changed. For example I had to redo the whole alliance war campaign even though I’ve completed it on another character( when I was doing Two sides to every tale )and gotten the achievements. Or even though I’ve completed the campaign while being horde back in bfa, suddenly I find that I might need to redo the horde campaign as well because I’m missing end achievements like “The shadow hunter”
Is there something amiss here or am I going mad?
How is it possible faction change actually deletes achievements already done in the account? Or isnt that the case ? And if I dare pay and faction change again will I get these achievements back? This is extremely frustrating and a bit of insight would be helpful Sorry for wall of text.
Completed achievements which are both faction and character specific will convert to their cross-faction equivalent. If the achievement is not yet completed, any partial progress will reset.
So I expect the faction change did it. We get people posting on the forums occasionally finding out the effects of a faction change, as you are now.
Sorry, but no, I’m afraid changing faction back won’t return them.
If you want a detailed accounting of what exactly transferred to what, you will have to make a Support Ticket, since I don’t have the details of your achieves, and I don’t have the detailed logic of the faction change program.
But my understanding is that you lost the uncompleted Horde achievements when you transferred to Alliance, and everything else follows.
this is the thing thought. I am talking about completed achievements, not in progress ones.
Thanks for trying to help though
Ive made a ticket and a bug report .
See what happens because this is probably not my fault since the support article clearly mentions that an in progress achievement will be reset. But since they achievements i am talking about were complete and not in progress they should not have vanished out of thin air.
so much for warband completion and shared (alt) experiences no
I have done the ally ones on a char and the horde ones on another which I later faction changed. Now I am in a bit of a bind. Does it mean I have to do 100s of quests again… feels broken and a contradiction to the new “warband” view.
They sheet the bed this expansion. Achievements went MIA since the launch.
I found out that i need to do 3 horde areas completely in order to get 2 achievements that are only available if you do this. ( remember i had completed everything and some1 came in and plucked these two achievements from panel)
I dont see a way they fix this because they wont even bother now they got new patch rolling in.
Maybe we see a random fix 2 months after or no fix at all because “we re sorry we lost your progress, we know its frustrating but deal with it and git gud scrub”
