Some of the daily/monthly achievements feel like either a contrivance or just boring…you want players to do new exciting things? and that was part of why these were changed…but really? “craft 10 items” is new and exciting? (I cant think of a way to make that exciting, so that one will always suck…)
How about (since you removed tiers from the daily/monthly) re-add a tier, but make it a “completion” tier. So there is the primary “do some stuff” then add a “do something special” to finish the tier.
I will use the current achievements as an example:
-Daily-
Current: 13 types of enemies
New: “Hunter Achievement”
-Tier 1: Kill 13 different types of enemies
-Tier 2: Kill a veteran [insert creature type here] ex: Ogre
Current: 10 allies revived
New: “Protector”
-Tier 1: Revive 10 allies
-Tier 2: Revive an ally while in combat -or- in WvWvW
Current: Dodge 15 attacks
New: “Light Footed”
-Tier 1: Dodge 15 attacks
-Tier 2: Dodge an attack that would otherwise knock you down or back.
Current: 20 Gatherings
New: “Refine”
-Tier 1: 20 gatherings
-Tier 2: Gather 5 of each type of material (wood, metal, plant)
Current: 5 Events
New: “The Meta”
-Tier 1: Participate in 5 events
-Tier 2: Participate in a meta event -or- reach the end of an event chain.
-Monthly-
Current: World Invaders killed
New: “Invader”
Tier 1: Kill ?? players in WvW
Tier 2: Kill 1 player in each borderland and Eternal Battlegrounds.
Current: Monthly Events completed
New: “Seen it all”
-Tier 1: Complete ?? Events
-Tier 2: Complete the meta event in each races starting zone.
Current: Intrepid Explorer: Find jumping puzzles
New: “Platformer”
-Tier 1: Complete ?? jumping puzzles
-Tier 2: Complete [insert puzzle name here] (different puzzle can change every time it is in rotation)
Current: Complete ?? Fractals
New: “Fractured”
-Tier 1: Complete ?? Fractals
-Tier 2: Reach the end of 3 rounds and defeat a fractal boss.
Now please, I don’t really want to see any “this is bad” or “this is good”, valid feedbad is desired.
And if you have any suggestions for FUN daily or monthly achievements, list them here, who knows maybe they will be added!
What we need now are interesting things to do, not some mundane simple task, that is so easy or boring to do that the daily just simply becomes “routine”
Hopefully we can get some new one that get players exploring the world, fighting new creatures, entering new zones, etc. etc.
