I've gotten it twice on my lock when he was in the 40-60 bracket http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-sh...r&cn=Zaularion.

Got it once before achieves came on my main(1990/2000), but too early alas :-/

**Razariel** · 2010-06-04, 10:56 PM

Gotten it twice on my DK. Once was purely by coincident, and the other time was when we created a full 15 man pre-made. We held 3 nodes, but only capped 2. We then held it until we would could cap it to get an exact score of 1590 to 1600. The last 2 minutes were hectic as hell since they figured out our plan, and all zerged the uncapped node. Took us 2 attempts as a pre-made since we messed up our math the first try.

You have no idea how retarded if feels when you lose it on your main then 2 days after you get it on your new dinged 80

**Brittany** · 2010-06-05, 12:09 AM

I've had it happen 3 times in one day (mostly the same people, tight contests each time) but never seen it since or before.

It's just luck.

**Pieterman** · 2010-06-05, 12:49 AM

its just rly good RNG. still havent done 100 matches and i got mine. also gave it to the horde once, on my DK. its not amazingly uncommon...

**Myndtaker** · 2010-06-05, 12:55 AM

i nerdraged so hard when i was on the losing end of this achiev a few months back

**skycaptain** · 2010-06-05, 02:19 AM

I just lost by 10.

**juzalol** · 2010-06-05, 03:38 AM

Some people just get it easier as you see here:

The theory of it is easy. The skill is putting it into practice.

Hard - yes.
Impossible - no.
Over the course of time, easily achievable - yes.

The more you practice it, the more chance you have of doing it.

Letting them 4 cap is too risky IMO.

Really all you have to do is count on them trying to cap every node. As Horde you put 4 people at Farm, LM, and BS each. Don't touch Farm's flag, leave it alone. Have the 3 extra people positioned wherever Alliance is putting the most pressure on you. Once you're getting starting to get close to the end of the match, have someone figure out the time needed to get a perfect 1600-1590 score. When you get to the right time just cap the flag, hold it, and profit.

The only mistakes to be made are if they stop you from capping Farm during that 8 second time window and if you screw up the timing. And the obvious stuff like people are bad and lose a node.

My GM and I were the ones who figured out this strat, but I figured any average downsy would come up with something similar. Just have to find 15 decent players who talk a lot on vent and one guy who wants to figure out the math.

it is luck. ive never seen a group that SPECIFICALLY goes for that. its so easy to fuck up, i just got it back in the day doin AB for S n' Gs, got it when it had to be 2000 -1990, not 1590 - 1600.

Wasn't Wrath released November 2008?

**Gunjniir** · 2010-06-05, 12:14 PM

i stopped progression on battlemaster once i thought to myself ... "fuck this achievement right in the ass". Close, too...only need like 1 more achive in any other BG.... but AB - I hate AB.

The word "unfair cockblock" comes to mind... of all the shitty meta achievements that have been removed over the past year or two, why the hell is this shit-eating, fun-sucking achievement still there?!?!
