Guild Wars 2

Despite very consciously using all the pickup boosts in Sanctum Sprint I’ve been unable to complete the Pickup Completionist achievement. I’ve got 6 of the required 7 but it’s been stuck that way for a while … racing competitively has taken a back-seat in the past couple of runs to get this done and I’m certain that I’ve used them all but no progress.

Same here, I’m not sure if I’m doing it wrong or what.

Try not winning the race, and instead go pick up every single powerup token you can find to max out your entire skill bar including buffed skills.
Then use all of them one after the other, if this doesn’t work. Try using all of the “control effect” skills on other people and the defensive skill against the control effect skills of other people. (Also try using all the skills in a single sprint)

Hopefully it will work, if not keep sending bug reports everytime it doesn’t work until they fix it :v

Thanks for the tip White Axolotl but that was pretty much my first response, the second time I tried it I actually had to keep up with the pack a bit in case my control skills had to be targeted … all to no avail sadly.

Make sure s.o. runs into your fake power-ups (skill 5) and you must get hit by s.th. while using “grounded” (skill 6) to complete the achievement.

I wondered about this. I thought perhaps this race was fixed… so I just meandered through it. However, every time I tried to get to the finish line, I kept getting bounced back through a cut scene then to the starting line over and over again.

Never made it to the finish line at all. Wonder what it looks like…would be nice if the game allowed those of us who just wander through to see it all to actually get through even though we don’t win the race.
