i didnt say u cant get it , but if ya lucky you will

and i didnt say you need to be skilled pvper , cause i used to pvp

so its about luck , not skill or like the dumb over there saying L2p

------------

added another example : http://i48.tinypic.com/2s653wh.jpg

AV- 90% of people charging for it stop at the first bunk and fight over it, go to 2nd, 3rd or 4th instead of competing for it.
WSG- wait just outside the flag room, so prospective victims can't see you
EoTS- spam that right click
AB- attack bases in small groups, dont follow the zerg.

If you can even go a BG with a friend your odds increase a lot.

And it must be a L2P issue if you cannot get any of them.

I just got all 4 in 4 BGs on my DK, admittedly EoTS was close but the others were a joke.

Or just cap the farm/stables at the start of the game. Worked for me.

EoTS is hard cause
1- you need players cap towers so you can capture flag
2- you go and hold and capture flag

issue is , none will go and cap towers cause the most are for flag ,you can't go and cap tower alone with pve gear fighting 1 or more pvper

and if ya been skilled and killed those pvp players " no chance " you wont get a chance to hold and cap flag , cause there many waiting and dont care about you.

I'm managing to get through them aswell. I have pretty poor vision and struggle more in some bgs than others. I think it would be alot fairer if the achievement was something like complete/win 4 different bgs. You'l still get to kill your pve players for increased e-peen size, and it's less frustrating for everyone else.

Theres nothing really wrong with a challenge but is a world event achievement that is part of an achievement that already takes a year to get itself the right place for it? This sort of content seems to be aimed at more casual players anyway.

I spotted 1 of your many issues. You sat there knowing this event would come up, did nothing, event popped and eventually came to the forum qq'ing.
I on the other hand - while rarely pvp'ing - made sure to have a decent amount of gear ready to keep me alive a lot longer.

I dont care what you think but the guy who designed this achi should die burning because he/she/(it?) is the biggest troll ever

AV: 'dirty play' on second tower (the other player used stampede), capped
AB: Run straight to BS alone crossing water, capped
EotS: Get flag in turns while half horde is dead and kept away by PvPers on the bridge, every 2-3 caps the flag was changing sides
WSG: Hunt efc asap inside base with 2-3 ppl and click like crazy when he is dying. The fact that horde is doing the achievement makes things easier than it looks like

I'm full 403+397 PvP gear but I really didn't need it, it helped on EotS bridge but it wasn't crucial. Be patient and sharp, that's it

I played whole day trying to do this achievement. If they want the meta to be time consuming, then they sahll put more achis instead of putting one that rewards those with better connection and speed increasing talents/spells.

Thanks to school of hardknocks i got my Tower Defense achievment in AV today. I just let the allys cap the flag and Id just defend it. As soon as the allys understood what I was doing they let me do it without attacking me. Worked out well for the both of us.

you know how i did AV ?

I let them kill my faction so i can recap the tower , as i know its about winning and def towers , npt let your friends/faction get killed while you are hidden "prowl" as i was doing , i could heal and attack , but i didnt to get achievement :(

so the achievement is about to be friendly to opposite faction and dont help your faction ?

in other meaning , i care about my self and F others ?

well done

Got 2/4.

Anybody able to explain why my Orphan up and vanishes in AV towers? I've capped three of those damn things and they never register because my orphan just disappears as i'm entering to cap the flag.

He should die for creating a PvP achi?. How dare he!

The part that upsets me about this is not the fact that I'm forced to PvP for it, which I even do for fun occasionally. The part that upsets me is that I feel like I have to be a selfish jerk in order to obtain it and play on a team where it's every man for themselves. They could make a new pvp achiev in place on this one, and have it be more about teamwork.

Got it in a matter of moments, and I play from California, so...ping is definitely NOT an issue, just gotta be smart.
