Guide to Achievements in WotLK Classic

Achievements are typically one of the main aspects of a game that drive players to continuously run after some crazy mission. Well, WotLK Classic isn't that different, and it isn't a secret that WoW always had a strong achievement mechanism. Therefore, to help you out in your achievements in WotLK Expansion, we have here a guide to achievements in WotLK Classic.

There are quite a lot of Achievements in WOTLK Classic. Therefore, to help you understand them, we compiled them in Quests, Basics/General, Exploration, Dungeons/Raids, Professions, and Events.

WoW WotLK is in the Beta Phase and opted for further changes in the future. For that, you can check out WOTLK Classic Reddit.

Quest Achievements

Lore Master

In this achievement, you have to travel the whole world of WOTLK Classic and complete the quests you will find. A simple trick is to primarily track the quests with low level, then never let the log get full, never skip quests, go to WoWhead to Show Horde Quest-givers in case you did all the quests in the old world, and finally look at the item lists that give quests.

Bombs Away

A relatively simpler Quest Achievement in which you have to take into account various random factors. For Kaliris, you will have to save yourself from getting hamstrung, dazed, or aggro because you will lose.

For Eggs Respawn, wait alongside the giver of the quest for a few minutes. Wait some more minutes when you see someone take the quest.

Blade's Edge Bomber Man

Here, you have to take into account your time. At the North of O'grila at Burning Legion Camp, you have to make sure that there isn't a second wasted for the bomb uptime. Failing is common here, and you have to reset after a throw fails and never avoid others.

When you reach your 15th bomb, you will have to throw it at the most southern cannon, fly back and turn it in as soon as possible. Don't be lazy and never waste time at the time of turning in the quest. In the Quest segment, it is amongst the hardest achievements.

Basic/General Achievements

25 Tabards

Using Reputations, the Tabards you got from NPC, you can buy back. At that time, the quests you deleted will come back to you. Some of them are not restorable like the Horde, but you can gain them back from other methods like destroying them.

Tastes Like Chicken

In the Capital Cities and Shattrath, you can do most of this. The technique here is to talk with various vendors like Mushrooms, Meat, and Fish. In case this isn't enough for you, then you can simply take a route of AH, get yourself some food, or you can also do some cooking yourself.

The best thing here is that Mega Food counts, and you will always find more than enough to complete it.

Leading the Cavalry

Exalt yourself with the horde races, around five of them, then go for the Skyguard or Netherwing. With all of these reputations, you can gain around 25 mounts, or you can gain the Horde Flying Mounts.

Always go for the one you think works best in your scenario. Just keep in mind that the AQ mounts are not included here. Various Mounts that you can learn are;

Two Talbuk (Halla)

Five Kodos (TB)

Three PvP Mounts

Six Wolves (Org)

Eight Talbuk (Mughar)

Six Netherwing Drakes (Netherwing)

One Wolf (Alterac Valley)

Five Netherrays (Skyguard)

Four Ahn'Qiraj Bug Mounts

Seven Wind Riders (Shadowmoon)

Cenarion Expedition Mount

All around, they make up around 48 mounts, but to complete it pre-TBC, you will have to get rare mounts. But, you can do this without taking the separate route by going for an Engineer.

The Keymaster

For the Auchenai Key, you will have to be honored by the Lower City.

For the Crescent Key, you will have to go DM east and get from a small imp Pusilin that drops it.

For the Key of Time, you will have to be honored by the Keeper of Time.

The Stratholme Key is dropped by Magistrate Barthilas, but the limitation is only one person looting it.

The Shadowforge Key can be gained from Dark Iron Legacy, which is a streak of quests starting from the Franclorn Forgewright (only the dead can see) in the Blackrock Mountains.

Killing the Talon King Ikiss, who is the final boss of Sethekk Halls, will give you the Shadow Labyrinth Key.

The Shattered Halls Key can be gained as a reward of the Four Quest from the last part that starts with you killing Smith Gorlunk and looting the Key Mold. In the end, you will have to kill Fel Reaver.

For the Scarlet Key, you will have to open the small Chest on the room's back at SM Library. The Chest belongs to the Arcanist Doan.

The Skeleton Key is also a reward from the chain of quests around six of them, starting from the Executor Darrington in the Tirisfal Glades, Bulwarks.

Violet Hold Key is an item that can be gained from Dalaran after doing the first quest of Violet Hold.

Finally, the Workshop Key can be gained from the Electrocutioner 6k as a drop. He is found in the Gnomeregan area.
