We have achievements but how about some more? There is plenty out there we can achievements for and you do not have to keep giving up more exp, a few lessons, I am just fine and happy with that. Anyways, here are some ideas:

Comm quests (actually requires completing them not just killing what is needed):
Turning in Rockeaters
Killing Chickens
Turning in Chickens
Killing Cows
Turning in Cows
Turning in Fish
Turning in Spinnerets

And so on. (no I do not know every single comm quest there is out there)
Advantages to doing this, it gets new players into doing comm quests, it give trade ministers a way to actually track that someone has been doing stuff by checking their achievements! (if it were made more like achievement status and could be checked).

Also- these are some from Imperian that could be places here and work just fine.

Some interesting ideas! We can certainly look at adding more! Feel free to make more suggestions.

My only comments would be that we removed PK rankings because, if my memory serves, of the inability of some to control themselves. I don't see us adding PvP achievements, as a result. Maybe things have changed though.

No.

No no no no no.

Nonononononononononononononononono.

Thank you!

Yeah I was looking over what we have compared to what I was looking at in Imperian, they have their arena, then they have their PK. WE really do not have to worry about prime PK so much but it would defnatly provoke off prime PK, only kept it there for our trigger happy PKers (myself would not likely try for any of those other than maybe getting into a kicking battle to see who would out last who)

Some other ideas, we have games in Lusterniea, like the miniature battles, chess, bombard and the game of fates. Maybe some achievements for winning these.

The problem with the PK ones is that it incited all kinds of rubbish from people wanting to up their count. Didn't really add anything beneficial, and was a fair bit of a detractor; so, it's better off gone.

there, took most of them out, Sorry I just wanna see how many people actually let themselves be kicked to death.. should probably have, kick to death and be kicked to death.. like the being killed by a rat. Anyways, the cutting off heads and piking them might need to go to, that might as well insight people to go off killing mindlessly.

I like the design ones. Though, I oughta start using the designedby command...more...well, ever...

Actually, what that one would encourage would be deathsight up, wait for person to die, go to the body and take off the head.

As a note, this process destroys the body, so any rez skills requiring the body no longer will function.

It's also a tracker-only achievement, if I'm not mistaken. I think we'd prefer general achievements for now.

You know what's pretty general? Theater and Library achievements. Anyone can do em!

Sure, but we'd need a theater and library system for those! Silly Noola.

Eventru! You make me giggle.

Some of those seem hard to track. Such as giving stuff to a newbie. And the mentor people to level 15 is something that will be gamed, as it requires large amounts of luck in addition to actually being a good mentor.

Destroying shrines will just reward shrine wars, which is just a hassle for everyone who needs to build up the shrines dusted who knows where. It is like the PK stuff. Do not want.

Those PK skills are highly specific. And dying should never really constitute an "achievement".

Actually, to be a bit blunt, the only of those I'd like to add would be the General (except the background one), Exploration and Level achievements.

And Noola's achievements, but with lower numbers.

I would like to echo the nooooooo on pvp achievements, as well as add a nooo to mentor achievements.

maybe some achievements involving leading scholars, bards, pilgrims. And achievements for debating

and for lols achievements for dying.

How about silly achievements?

like tentacles or doom. Just a few things that liven things up?

I may be too hung up on the name, but how is dying an achievement?

As far as I am aware, only one person ever has been killed by Consumption (the skill).

That would be an achievement. Not a good one.

That also means that only one person has ever killed with this skill, though, also an achievement; but not a good type of thing to encourage.

I hardly think the guy wasy trying to get himself killed by consumption.

Of course if it WAS an achievement, it would be easy to get because you were trying to get it.

So all in all, not something worthy to put in as an achievement methinks.

And either add influence achievement to newbie achievement, or make influencing count for the current gnome and fink keel achievement. *nodnod*

He was AFK gathering scholars, bards, and pilgrims.

So, he was trying to get something done to him!

Also, consumption requires that the person be bleeding to work; it also does very little damage. This means that getting a kill with it should be nigh-impossible, heh.
