WTB removal of AGM achievement 0_O

It has basically made it impossible to get solo and even with teams sometimes, and I find it really annoying.



On my server, it is being camped 24/7 by at least 2-3 different achievement whore 80's , who when psted go " Oh, yeah im trying to get the achievement im bored! thats why I killed your twink, but dont worry, I have 3/12 ! YAY so , i will camp it for the next few days and then you can have it! :) "



and is immediately replaced by a new one, the very second they gain their 10 achieve points, or whatever it is.



Sick of that nonsense, I just logged onto my rogue, on a completely DEAD server, with a population of about 10 players (LOL), at 12pm, tryed to get the agm, and of course. EVEN ON A DEAD SERVER, sure enough as the chest spawns, hey presto, 80 priest kills me and takes it, when psted " OH YEAH I WANT THE ACHIEVEMENT"

haha.



What are your thoughts on this matter?
 
Well I don't have this problem anymore since I got my AGM last saturday.

But I have to agree it's not funny anymore. There where times when I had 5 80's in full deadly/furious gear helping me and I still didn't get it.

For my last one I had 10ppl helping me so that one was easy but it's just sick how many 80's want that stupid achievement.



Even had the chest despawn 2 times after 1 hour of fighting (yes it despawns if no one loots it for one hour)



I think ppl that one the first achievment are oke that's just one trinket but they should remove the achievement to get the AGM or try making it a feat of strength and see if ppl will still want it then.



However I can already say to you that blizzard will probably never remove this achievement unless in cata the entire arena would be destoyed. (they say stranglethorn will be the most changed zone in cata)
 
Yeah when I got my AGM pre-achiev on a different twink I would typically go there with 0 competition and just take it. When I got it on my lock competition was guaranteed and in order to get it I had to bring 2+ 80s everytime. I now plan on getting another AGM trinket for my warlock... god help me.
 
80

get an 80 learn to hot log and solicit help. be friendly and ppl will usually help ya out. sometimes paying ppl off works too. be on at low pop times like the 3,6,&9ams are usually the least camped. Yeah blizz screwed this event pretty bad especially by making another GY right next to the arena and of course making it an achievement made matters worse. with a couple ppl that are determined to make a bad day for ya, it can turn into a 30 min stand off even with the help of 5-8 80s.



Other things to keep in mind strat wise.

- have party members spoof loot the chest but not open it. this will draw enemies in usually and you can start increasing their rez timers

- keep in mind if the chest is opened, it needs to be opened 1 time b4 3 mins transpires or the chest will despawn.

- theres the pygmy oil trick but this doesn't work well imo

- ninja rez & loot...if you're lucky the only two 80s battling it out are so focused they lose focus or get CC'd and aren't able to interrupt you in time
 
Im 9/12 so far on my first(probably last) AGM , its took me like 2 weeks of camping Gurubashi and pretty much the only thing stopping me from being ready to transfer to an active battlegroup server. Theres no way I can compete on my own against a lvl 80 undead priest that turns up fully classed buffed going for the master achievement. I've had to make a horde spy to see when he logs in and devise a plan on using my main and my friends lvl 80 DK to take him out. Alot of hassle, especially when you get up at 5am and theres level 80s turning up.
 
It actually takes the same amount of time pre-achievements, as post-achievements on my server. For my first twink Rant, took him months to get 12, that was b4 the achievements. A few 70s just liked to camp the arena at all hrs so it was no fun. Jameshowlet only took 1-2 weeks to get all 12, and i wasnt even trying every spawn time just got lucky i guess. Same with my hunter too, only about 2-3 weeks. But then again Hellscream is dead. =P
 
I'm lucky, I have alot of irl friends at my server, so every day I'd get a raid grp of 10 ppl top help me xD sometimes it was rly overkill, but sometimes it was needed, and those battles where epic! :O
 
I just got my second on my rogue. It was pretty funny.



I sapped a level 43 BE Rogue and ninja'd the chest. Glad I had autoloot on, because the sap wore off just after I looted the trinket.



The Blood Elf killed me quickly after, but I still won. = )



I tried to PM her, but she had already logged. Probably nerd rage.
 
yeah one time on my lock a level 35 warrior came at me while i was in the arena... he pmd me and said "lol prepare to be ownd" I then killed him and took the trinket.

A lot of times starter DKs go for it on my server, because they think OMG IMA DK IM TOUGH SHIZIT, its pretty funny. I get on my priest and wait for them, and I always get whispers like "Lol, priest u better leave unless u want to die" xD



So funny
 
It always sucks when you lose it, or when you should have it but something happened that make you miss it.

Got my first AGM in 3-4 days.
 
its not the achievement you want to go away... its the graveyard being too closed to the arena now !



they wanted the arena to have more of a competition but by doing so they made the AGM not really worth getting price wise. at least for 80 ! what was fun back then was that we actually fought for something. and now what people do is just fight, rez fight rez fight rez and it almost goes for an infinite loop there ! its completely stupid.



i say keep the achievement but remove that entrance graveyard.

and when you get 1 hit by the smart rogue/druid, or a waiting 80 for that matter, lose all chance of getting it



remove the achieve, bored 80s go away

Can't handle the competition?

Quit competing.

noones saying they cant handle the 'competition'

it would be much easier, from a twink standpoint, to have the achievement taken out, which it never will



so we just have to get used to taking a longass time getting our oshit button
