Guild Wars 2

This is a small thing that might irk only me but I thought I’d share.

On the “Summary” section of the achievement pane, we have this “Nearly Completed” section. From what I can tell, these only update when A: you complete the achieve or its current tier or B: a different achieve has made enough progress to be closer to completion and replaces one.

I find the feature useful most of the time. Knowing I only need to kill 200 more creatures with a pistol or defeat 20 more players in PvP will subtly direct my gameplay.

Unfortunately, without progress on an achievement, some achieves can get perpetually stuck on this list. There are a few achieves that I got reasonably far in but, for one reason or another, decided they weren’t worth finishing. Their always being in the “Nearly Completed” just makes me angry as I know I’ll never go back to get them and that space could be showing me some other, more fun achieve that I could be close to.

(For those wondering, the two on my account that annoy me most are “Go for the Gold” 27/28 and “Dive Master” 34/38)

I’d like to request some sort of hide option on achievements so they won’t show up in the “Nearly Completed” list. Something similar to Windows 7’s Start menu option “Remove from this list” would be perfect. You might even extend the functionality to having a category of “Hidden” achievements to keep them out of sight while achieve browsing.

Thanks for reading.

I’d prefer to be able to go to a page where there’s a longer list of nearly completed achievements.

I agree. With the couple hundred achievements in the game, being able to check the top 20 or so would be a nice QoL addition.

I’d still want to hide certain achievements from that longer list though.
