I’ve done my best to unlock certain mage tower skins even though legion was in a time of my life where I rarely had any time to play.
However even with that it becomes a royal pain and in my case near impossible to get the color tint that requires 10 RBG WINS.
I check daily for RBG’s to be up but there aren’t any up, I tried creating my own yet not enough people join it.
I don’t mind hard work but relying this insanely hard on other players in a gamemode that is a lot less popular than it used to be makes it simply painful to unlock the color tint ( especially so for multiple classes but heck I just want it on one character which is my warlock ).
Please blizzard, make it a somewhat hard yet achievable thing for solo players. I can get some friends to join me but RBG’s just never seem to be possible anymore nowadays.
they require rbg’s for the artifact skin tone, wins on top of that. Yeah I guess I should but the moments I’ve been playing there wasn’t even 1 rbg active. It’s a shame.
All in all it also just makes it a totally non-fun achievement which is why I hope blizzard can change it to something else that takes proper effort but actually can be done.
RBG? Random Battlegrounds? Noone is playing them? Looool~ We must play different games. If you cant wait 15+min in queue then go to Dalaran sewers and queue as Mercenary (fight for Alliance).
This is appearance for PvPers and you should PvP to get it. Simple!
I joined 2 big RBG communities, and I have yet to find a single group that would take me without me having at least 1.8k experience in RBGs. They usually require 2.2k or even HotH.
Every time Blizzard creates something that requires players doing PvP it’s complete crap.
Every time.
School of Hard Knocks achievement? Crap.
PvP Island Expedition win for Essence? Crap.
RBG wins for Artifact skin? Crap.
Nazjatar Warmode wins for Essence? Crap.
It’s always some lame requirement that demands that you throw yourself at the most dead and frustrating PvP in the game.
I think the only realistic way to get those is doing them as a sort of Event with the entire Achievement Discord Community banding together for one evening and win-trading like crazy. I would try that. Asking them is probably a lot more likely to get you anywhere than trying to actually find an active RBG team that takes you with no experience and/or rating.
Those are not the only achievements i would like to see changed, though. The summonable raid-bosses in Garrisons+Broken Shore are on a similar level. Imho Blizzard should change these, too - or convert them into Feats and be done with it.
In Blizzard’s defense: We did this achievement as a guild back during Legion. I would not call myself a PvPer by any stretch, even though there were some times when i did more of it than the average player - and most players in my guild are even less into PvP than me.
We only had one evening per week for it and it took us multiple weeks to get those 10 wins - but i would be lying if i said it wasn’t a lot of fun. Since we were completely unorganised and inexperienced we could pretty much only win against other groups who banded together for this specific achievement. I cannot imagine suffering through it without my guild, though. Laughing about our own stupid mistakes was pretty much all that made it fun, looking back.
It did, however, motivate exactly NOBODY of my guild group to keep doing RBGs after we had earned the achievement together.
There are 2+ rbgs up in lfg almost everytime during day, afternoon and night.
Problem about this is they are usually one of the two:
“Yolo”-pugs who take in any player who signs up, rarely using voice, ive experienced a groupleader in this who yelled at a blood dk guarding a tower in Eye of the storm for doing no dps… Its 99% gonna be a loss unless you meet another and worse yolo-pug.
Good organized teams but often they require 2k rating in rbgs specifically. I rarely get a spot in them with my 1,4 rbg rating even tho i have 2,2 and 2k in 2v2 and 3v3.
Best way is to get into a community who do rbgs. But yeah its a dead bracket more then less compared to arena and even more compared to m+ and raid too.
Something should be done to make rbgs great again i dunno what tho.
I’m not saying it wasn’t awful to do but back in Legion it was at least easier to find groups. It took me two days of doing Rated BGs to get my ten wins. I think it took me around 40 matches to get my 10. It sounds like it got a lot harder to do it now.
It was a horrible experience as someone who is essentially plays PvE and only dabbles with regular battlegrounds once in a blue moon. I don’t think I’ve ever set foot in rated again.
Just like after grinding my PvP essences this time I’m not inclined to do any more PvP this expansion. I really wish they’d stop forcing PVE players into PVP and vice versa.
Yes, i know. And we both know that there is absolutely no win-trading taking place in PvP EVER, especially when achievements are concerned. I merely tried to be honest. Maybe i should have said it this way:
The Achievement-Discord-Community could come together for a big event where hundreds of players Q up for a fair, open weekend of fun competitions to give a lot of players a shot at this achievement!
