    I got it randomly on my Druid. If you change into a Saurok while in Feral form, you keep the speed boost and can go much faster.

    I know m8, but with crz shit and random ppls killing while riding it is almost not possible to find 200 roaches even with speed boost...thx anyway!!!

    Make a group of 20 people and have them spread in every direction. That's how I got it back in MoP.

    You can listy your group in LFG under "Custom", and in the meantime, shout out in trade chat. I bet there are a lot of people still missing the achievement.

    Sorry hold on, what is this achievement, again?

    Edit: RIGHT, RIGHT, the stupid 'stomp cockroaches' achievement.

    It's nearly fucking impossible to do if you're on a busy server, but as MoP is long gone by now, I doubt too many people will be hanging around there anymore. Just make a custom group with 4-5 people and get it quick. It can be done solo, just 'map out' the big cockroach clusters and run over them. I did it out of boredom one day and got it after a couple of half-assed tries.

    I hate the server hop mechanic. Whenever I get a good random NPC combo in my garrison (Erris + trader, Erris + Harrison, etc) I always list it in the group finder, just out of habit. Feels like only 1 in a 100 people that join are actually interested in any of the NPCs, the rest are just server hoppers joining and leaving in a few seconds.

    Why does that bug you?

    It's the symptom of two game mechanics I probably hate the most: CRZ technology and highly desirable rares.

    Outdoor content should at least try to be immersive. Any shred of what was left of it has been completely removed. Doomroller spawns and a group of 30+ people appear out of nowhere and disappear just as quickly after it's dead. The only good use of CRZ technology I've ever seen is the shard system for Tanaan. And that was designed to cap the amount of people in a zone to make it playable. Old content zones functioned perfectly fine without CRZ. All it does for those zones right now is force all level capped characters to be in the same instance.

    Time-Lost Proto Drake and other rares with very long spawn timers that promote camping are just awful game design. Sitting around and realm-hopping while watching a movie on an other screen is about the worst possible game design you can have. Alani and the white Raptor are both much better ways of obtaining mounts. Both required you to at least play your characters to obtain them. If you want to obtain the rare spawn mounts you have to "work" to get them. By sitting around doing nothing in the game world waiting for them to spawn, sometimes for weeks.

    Why are you spending time doing it if it makes you so angry? Surely gaming time should be fun.

    In case you don't want to lose too much time with this achievement, you can try another way:

    - Wait until Legion, and the second it goes live, pop on your character already in the Island and do the achievement. HS back and start your journey in Legion!
