Guild Wars 2

Being one of the games highest achievement point hoarder this has been frustrating me for many months as its the last achievement in my Hero’s tab to get.

Having searched around it seems hints are bugged at different areas for different people, for me I’m stuck at 80/83 but can only find 1 non-checked hint to complete (F4 ranger pet swap), which cannot be completed anyway.

It would be nice to see an official response to this problem that has been in game since launch in August.

Funnily enough, today I re-created my ticket from several months ago regarding this exact issue. The previous response was ‘we are working to get this resolved as soon as possible’ and ‘follow game updates for more info’. This didn’t work, so I am waiting for an update from them, too. :/

No need for ANOTHER thread.

A thread started 8 months ago with minimal replies or bumps no developer response…

I wanted to start a fresh thread with screenshots and information.

Yeah, I wonder too wheter it will EVER be fixed or not. I’m sitting with broken achievement from November or so, and now that we have leaderboards 10 point would be nice.

Had the same problem but I got the achievement today. Based on another thread I saw, I tried the following:

- Command pet to attack a target (F1)
- Let it die
- As the pet was coming back to me, hit F4 to swap pet

Once I swapped the pet, I got the achievement. Hope this helps!

I had the same problem and I can confirm that this solution worked for me, even if I had to try it twice (oddly).
The hint is worded pretty badly and I think that misleads most players. With the achievement points becoming more and more important, I am afraid this problem will attract the attention of more and more people. They should really “fix” it, if nothing else by wording the hint more clearly, so that people will easily understand what action they are expected to perform to activate it.
