Weeklys
The monthly is pretty good for people who can’t play every day. I think its in a pretty good spot. There’ll be people can do it on the first day and others who may not be able to manage it until the last, but it covers everyone.
If they want to do a weekly that sits in between daily and monthly then its no skin off my nose.
Fire up the Hyperbowl ma, we’re going to town!

Daily and monthly achievements were not made to be massively time-consuming. Altering the monthly requirements to please the sensibilities of those who play a lot is not, imo, a good idea.
However I will say this. There seems to be less variety now than there was before. I wish there was a little more variety in it all. Feels like we’ve been doing the same dailies and monthlies for a long time now. I was excited today when I seen critter killer as a daily. lol
I have a Guildie that only plays on the weekends (Friday and Saturday nights), and he rarely finishes the Monthly, as he runs out of time. I don’t think changing the requirements for the Monthly would be a good idea.
Now, if a Weekly was implemented, with less requirements than the Monthly, I would have no objection, but I can see those that can’t complete the Monthly now having some.

Even though I’m one of the people who had monthlies done on the second day, I completely agree with this. There are a whole lot of people (I dare say the majority of people in-game) that don’t have the time I do to play the game. And as much as I would enjoy more of a challenge for Monthlies, it would not at all be fair to those that only play a few hours a day or week.
It normally takes me around two weeks to get my 4th individual monthly achievement to get my reward. The first three are relatively quick but I’m not seeking out that content to play, I just play normally.
Edit: Oops, I get my 5th individual monthly achievement in 3 weeks, 4 in roughly 12 days.

Recommend a few nights in WvW running with a commander. It can yield a ton of events, veteran kills, champion kills, and WvW player kills and salvage the stuff you get for the salvage achievement. I can usually finish my monthlies in 4 days.

Which works great for those players interested in WvW, but not so much for those not so interested, like said Guildie. But, thanks for the tip! =)
what if they added an option for monthlies called overachieve, where once you complete ALL of the monthlies you get an an addition tier added to each doubling the requirements of the monthlies, but for less rewards, perhaps only for achievement points

Then, we would be back to posts from those that feel ‘forced’ to do said Achievements. The Achievements were changed to avoid this, previously.

Never have a problem with monthly, its dailies actually. Certain combinations of daily categories can take hours or require you to go well out of your way to get the last one or two achievements.
I would like the reverse of what the OP suggests, a weekly system to replace dailies.
ok i like dailies and monthlies how they are i usually complete them both with no problem usually about half way through the month for the monthlydepending if i do a lot of wvw or not . so no to ops suggestion
