"General Contractor" Achievement takes over 2000 hours

@Mudblood I have already completed 500 PvE missions within 6 territories as well as the 5000 corrupted breaches. Those are well within reach.

That’s genuinely quite impressive. How’s your territory standing looking?


BW : Crafting infused regen potions, had to reach arcana aptitude 86.
CK : Previous company had it.
FL & WF were increased by doing the portals.

Very nice. I’ve got a ways to go on my 500 pve/pvp missions per territory, that’s been on the back-burner for now.

These are my current standings. I’d like to “rush” 300 for BS when it is released as well.

Here is another personal goal I recently achieved:

If you’ve done 6 territories at this point you might be the most hardcore achievement hunter for these specific quests in the whole game, and you are still much less than 50% complete because there are 14 total territories (15 with BS) and the higher level territories will take longer because many of the quests are in elite areas.

I disagree that these are reasonable achievements.

How many hours has it taken you to get 6000 faction quests completed and 5000 portals?

Digging old screenshots of conversations with other achievement hunters, I had 2499 portals done on June 26th. Completed the 5k on September 28th.
I did take many PvE missions in GC of destroying portal(in FL or MD) to work on both at same time.
Buying a house in front of the faction NPC helps a lot.

My text version of tracking faction mission count. (blank is completed)

 - PvE Missions :                 EG 187,                GC 122,                ER 123, RW 129, RS 129, SM 150, WF 441, WW 161
 - PvP Missions : BW 169, CK 125, EG 101, EF 293, FL 51, GC 333, MB 138, MD 43, ER  53, RW  56, RS 147, SM   7, WF  52, WW 142

Doable : yes
Reasonable : Not for everyone
Reasonable to do them all : Never !

My guess is that they probably intended it to be 1 million HP repaired, not parts. But yeah, no fix this patch. Reduce it to 100k please; 200k maybe, but even that is pretty tough.

Looks like you’ve never played WoW.

All achievements are a time&cost investment. Either you want it, or not.
I remember camping the Time Lost Proto Drake in WoW for a week. My wife started whining after 3 days of barely seeing me.
But then when I showed her the beautiful beast, she said “you could have told me”.

With all due respect, this is not WoW, and 3 days is nothing compared to how long it takes for this achievement. This takes 2,000 hours of in-game time for a single achievement. 3 days, even if you spent all 3 days online without logging out for even a minute, is only 72 hours. 72 hours is 3.6% of the time it would take for this achievement. I hope that helps put it into perspective.

They listened! :heart:

How much is it now?

Unclear, we’ll see tomorrow when PTR gets released. I’ll put it in the thread.

I will guess that it will be General Contractor at 100K, everything reduced by 90%.
