World of Warcraft has a very competitive spirit and the achievement system brought in the precursor patch to Wrath of the Lich King sparked a big flame into the fire. David "Xerin" Piner takes a look into the seedy underbelly of achievements as players offer up their hard earned gold for the rare achievements. What achievements are for sale and is there a long history of this going on? Find out here at Ten Ton Hammer as we take a look at the black market of achievements.
See, like I said, you just have to be in the right spot and the right raid at the right moment to get the achievement. The game doesnt care if your character is ice blocked, invisible, jumping up and down, or dressed in a dress as a male human while dancing recording how amazing you are. The game just cares that the goal is met. If Yogg dies while youre screaming lines from Dragonball Z or watch Gossip Girl while /dancing with 0 DPS/HPS then itll still give you the achievement.
The Black Market of Achievements awaits for those curious.
