Just completed the Dungeon Master title unlocked it today and realised I could have way more achievement points first before binging on dungeon farming.

Didn’t have time to do another dungeon after Arah path 4 but how exactly how does it actually work? Is it 5 achievement points for 1 path repeated or is it more?

Does it even currently work or is it broken like Lifetime Survivor? >.>

5 points for every 5 dungeon’s you clear, though it works a little oddly, i think it counts individual dungeons rather than each explorable path, so if you do AC explorable 123 it’ll give you 1 point towards your 5.

i’ve never cared enough to find out exactly what counts towards it, but it’s definately not every explorable path be that design or bug.

I think the amount increases for every tier you get. The first one is between 5-10 paths, but after that it gets substantially harder to achieve more tiers.

I don’t think you necessarily need to have done one of each dungeon because I remember getting it once and I hadn’t done SE at all so I do believe it’s just the amount of dungeons you’ve done rather than specific ones or all paths etc. As for tiers I haven’t noticed any tiers and I got the achievement twice now. It just says infinite.

So for maximum Anet point gains, run AC 2, SE 1, CoF 1, HotW 1 and Arah 3 daily?
(Assuming daily reset with the HDE right, otherwise it can’t be infinite!)

Well with infinite I mean once you complete it, you can do it again and again the same thing. I don’t think it changes in regards to tiers or at least it doesn’t mention it if it does. To me it doesn’t seem to change but I guess next time I can keep track to see if it does.

I’ve completed the hobby dungeon master achievement twice now and in the process of getting the third but I’m a dungeon addict so I do loads :P.

I have done it 4 times now, and I can say for 100% sure that the amount of paths you need to do for each tier (5 points) increases every time you achieve a new one (unless there are other deciding factors like what dungeons you do etc). Either that or it’s bugged (not unlikely tbh, seeing as the bar doesn’t even move for me when I do dungeons).

Hmz odd, It doesn’t mention any increase or tiers. To be honest I haven’t really been counting them it isn’t really important to me. Also it doesn’t give a very clear idea of the progress you’re making. It just suddenly jumps up a bit.

So for all I know it could be from doing specific dungeons or any path counts, I don’t know all I know is that you don’t need to do all dungeons to get the achievement.

They really need to work on clarifying some of these achievements Either way I’ll be doing dungeons regardless so I’m not really purposefully trying to get the achievement it’s just happening as I go along.

Its an extremly buggy achievement, some dungeon pathes do not count towards it at all.

1st person worldwide to reach 35,000 achievement points.

from my understanding it works like this:
It counts paths for points. The idea is that you do 3 paths of a dungeon, and this is 1 point.
But you can earn it by doing the same path over and over again. So instead of doing say AC123, TA123, Arah123, HoTW123 and CoF123. You could do CoF1 x15 and get the same amount of points towards it.

Thus when you complete a path and dont receive a point, it’s because you’re still 1-2 paths away from your next point in it.

It’s 1 point per path run. The reason it appears buggy is because some paths for some dungeons dont count towards it. There is a post on this forum somewhere where people experimented and posted the results.
