I Just spent forty minutes working on the single worst achievement ever conceived “Leave It To Me” which is an HoT Act 2 story achievement that involves soloing a veteran modrem wolf as a rabbit without reviving allies, I got the wolf to ~10% health which takes a monumental amount of time and effort, then the game kicks me with Network Error 1022:5:1:874:101

This has happened several times to me on this particular mission at this location, it’s a bug in your game.

EDIT: I got it done because someone eventually joined my party and we both exploited the Fire Elemental Powder and Ogre Pet Whistle at the same time (advice taken from the Wiki) to kill the modrem wolf for us. Still a terribly designed achievement imho.

This is impossible. It takes too long, and I can’t even complete it without the stupid craptacular servers malfunctioning and booting me. Why can’t Anet actually fix the game instead of pumping out gem shop items?

What am I supposed to do now? All I really wanted to do was work on the story achievements, and that has now been taken away from me because this is broken so there’s no point in trying any more.

Go with at least one other person and have instance owner not move at all when ported to that section. The rest of the group can then go forwards without getting transformed and kill the vet. Or you can bring consumables such as fire ele powder.

Here’s what you should do. Create a party and rerun the mission. When you get to the Rabbit room, the instance owner should stay inside the starting area. All other party members go and kill the mobs without transforming as long as the instance owner stays put. Easy and quick achievement. And if you feel this would somehow cheapen the achievement…you already earned it. A D/C stole it from you so just pick up your earnings this way.

Firstly, I have no friends and I have tried advertising in LFG for this achievement for over 3 hours today and no one joins.

Secondly that’s clearly an exploit, not that I am against exploits and I would use it if I could find someone to help but honestly it’s not a legitimate solution to the broken problem.
