    you don't even have to kill the hunter...obviously you would, but once you avoid the damage from the spell you will get credit.

    The problem with the achievement is not the hunters, its the sentinels. I find one with it's ability and it always picks me up.

    Technically it's don't take damage while he's channeling the ability as once I got the achievement I stopped and was like yay and then got hit by an arrow. :P

    Wow I guess i got lucky, my first try i novad one around a wall and he cast it after 1 spear as i just stood there. Getting picked up for a party member to get the achiev was far more difficult.

    Solo'ed this as a DK. It's kinda cool that the Sentinel can pick up the blood worms and I got credit for it. The Hunters suck though. Took me like 30 min to get it cuz the first time it happened i was melee range and he hit me right away.

    The sentinels gave me the most trouble. I had a guildie/friend come help me out with it. It took us nearly an hour. I got picked up twice (when we found ones that would pick up) before my friend got picked up. We were trying to do the hunter one at the same time and weren't able to get one to barrage before raid time .

    um guys this achievement very easy all you have to do is get one that cast the barrage and stay out of his black spots. I don't understand the big fuss is about.I aint trying to be rude or etc just dont understand why this isa problem for many of you when its very easy it just time consuming to find one to do it then making sure you stay out of his black spots and by the way vents do work as los.

    Just run in a circle around the hunters... if you get hit, you aren't running in a tight enough circle.

    Just keep trying to find one though, it's complete RNG.

    I had the issue with the sentinels on my druid. Helped a stranger get it, and they would constantly pick me up, not him. Whenver it would pick him up, after one mangle, they'd drop him. -.-; Took forever to get one that actually stayed. XD My hunter was easier. Picked up my pet. lol.

    The issue isn't getting the achievement itself, it's finding a hunter with barrage.

    It took me several days of dailies before I found a 2nd hunter that used this ability (and preferring to kill the hunters for the daily). The first time I encountered one I killed it while it was still casting the barrage (you need to survive a complete cast without getting hit by it). I couldn´t get mobs to use the ability by resetting them, by simply waiting a long time or by going for specific colors.

    I also don´t know why people say to use speed boosts. If you´re not too close to the hunter it´s very very easy to avoid, you get a rather large shadow on the ground where a spear is going to hit, just move out of it when you see it. I have shadow detail set to lowest and all I see is a big black circle on the ground where one is going to hit. You can also just run around in a small area while always changing direction, you'll barely have to dodge anything when you do that. The spears anticipate where you're going to be, so if you just run in a straigth line, you'll get hit by them.

    I was literally in there for an hour slaughtering them until I got one.

    i killed like 20 and no one did the ability then checked on a guide that sad that they will only do wild barrage when they near lava, then i attack a hunter got it close to lava and he did wild barrage.i tested it on 5hunters 2 did wild barrage.

    Found this thread funny only because I got this achievement without even trying might have to go and see what this ability is all about.

    Yes! I hate those so much. I got the Shaman/Hunter achievements for my 2 toons that I want the title on, but omg..
    I was trying to get the Sentinel achievement for my warrior now that my bf has access (he chose Wardens first), and it was awful! When they do finally pick you up, it's very random. We thought maybe it went off of threat, but that didn't seem to be the case. Didn't have time to get it since we had to raid.. blah lol.
    I am a filthy casual!

    Pull a hunter ( from range and make sure its using range attacks ) if it doesnt barrage in 5 seconds kill it and pull a new one.

    From my personal experience only bronze/green-colored sentinel can pick up you. Not yellow or red sentinel.

    I might be wrong ofc.

    Not as obvious as it may seem since that is not a typical barrage in its behaviour.
    It will be aimed at where the hunter thinks you will be, so moving in a fairly straight line will make it harder to dodge.
    Instead move erratically, with changes in direction. Most barrages are aimed at where you stand at any given point instead of where you will be later.

    Again not as simple as that since I have seen one use barrage as much as 30 seconds if not longer after aggro.

    Today i found that the player sentinel picks up doesnt need to be in your party.

    On the Sentinel part of this achieve, I've been trying to get it to pick up my mirror images, but it always goes for me. Anyone know if this is possible?
