In previous years this achievement had snowball fighting Skritt in Lion’s Arch you could hit with the snowballs. This year however this is not the case. Leaving us only with the Skritt during the escort ho-ho-tron and his dolyak event. The problem is they seem to be immune to getting hit with snowballs making this achievement impossible or near impossible to complete. Mainly because in order to even have the event happen you either have to single handed fund it in a dead map of Divinity’s Reach (a costly venture) or end up fighting the hogs who have to power through and “kick” all the Skritt even though there is no benefit for a single player to “kick” more than one Skritt once. Which I think is the problem I am seeing with this achievement. If we have a Skritt or few in Divinity’s Reach in the snowball fighting around the event hub this would remedy this issue without having to fix code so that it works properly in the event Skritt.
I agree that this achievement needs rework and that the skritt can’t be hit, not if they’re standing still and not if they’re kicked.
But if you don’t kick them, the dollyak will die after the second or third skritt attack – wasting a good amount of gifts and gold in the process. So why not trying to find a balance between the two and not blame those who kick the skritt (you sound as if you do).
