Guild Wars 2

I’ve thought this for a a while…but it’s a shame that many achievements can’t be repeated. The first such achievement to come to mind is “Lion’s Arch Exterminator”. I had a blast searching around Lion’s Arch for those 50 Karka hatchlings. I’d do it again, just for fun…if I could.

I would like achievements to be tracked on a both the character and account levels. Some rewards might be nice to offer per-character (History Buff’s [Spirit Shards], Fine Dining’s [Metabolic Primer], Koutalphile’s [Bag of Mentor’s Supplies]). Others, I understand, likely go only to the initial account unlock (Old Tom’s [Mini Old Tom], Leystone Armor’s [Ascended Armor Chest], etc.).

Even if no rewards were handed out, it can be fun, just knowing what each character has accomplished.

With all that said, I recognize that things aren’t as simple as “just add character achievements”. Things like Emergency Response Hero would take forever to complete on a single character. Thus I’d suggest that either certain achievement remain account-only, or both the character AND the account have their own separate counters and most rewards remain tied to the account version. I’d be plenty happy with either. (I’d probably choose the latter, myself.) I’m guessing the ANet UX people would likely have better ideas in that area though.
