Anyone know if this will be retro active?
I just completed the criterias on the live servers now, but will it count once achievements gets implemented?

If it helps, capping Snowfall GY right at the start of the game counts as an 'assault' despite it being a neutral graveyard.

Commento di 97823

As a horde Mage I tried about 6 games to do this, and you will need some luck, timing, and cooperation to do this. Some coaxing of your fellow horde (telling them to go elsewhere (Go kill Bal - so you can take Icewing - or asking them to help you I.E. dont cap this etc. I'm being a fat nerd and trying to get All-Star)

The first thing I did was just nuked some lowbie in the giant string of allies that run down the field of strife, just targeting different ones and when you see some sub-65 blow your cooldowns on him. Next try to assault a tower. If you're still alive from the field, you can head to Icewing bunker, otherwise try to stealth take one of the Northern/Southern bunkers. As for the graveyard you can take Snowfall GY once the alliance have pushed forward and the game is coming near an end or if you good enough you can take Stormpike.

Defending is definitely the tricky part. I find that defending a GY is really luck based, as this goes for towers as well. Your best bet is hoping someone tries to ninja Frostwolf relief hut, and one of the east or west towers. If they're getting towers, chances are they will get one and then get the other, so you can probably defend one of the towers while the ninja is getting the other one.

Cliff notes version:
1. Nuke lowbie in field of Strife
2. Assult Icewing Bunker
3. Either try to ninja Storpike GY or wait for Snowfall GY
4. Pray someone tries to ninja Frostwolf Relief Hut, and the West and East Frostwolf towers, or just coax everyone to go on D and spam that right click.

Having the AV trinket on to recall is definitely a good idea for this. I didn't think I'd get it until I saw someone cap the relief hut. A quick recall back and I had my achievement.

This achievement really is a combination of luck and drive and I doubt anyone will get it by chance. If you are Horde and do not fear the wrath of your fellow combatants taking Snowfall from the Alliance to try and force a turtle would probably give you a fresh set of chances and a lot more time to get all the caps you need. (Thankfully I didn't need to resort to such measures.) Some good pointers are:

For defending, generally a really early bird or two will ride into your home base and cap while NPCs are still up, these can be recapped more easily than during mass combat. Other opportunities are if the enemy is defending their home base strongly, sometimes they will attempt to recapture their gy a few times giving you more chances to be the one to clickyclicky. Towers are harder than gys to defend and so you should take any chance to do so as your priority.

For assaulting, either ride ahead of the pack and stop for nothing, or, in the case of a turtle, hope that there is enough gy swapping to allow you to assault some again. Riding ahead lowers your chances of getting defense caps, or so I found. And thus I actually got my defense caps FIRST and then rode back up to assault things the alliance had retaken.

I got this achievement the other night.

Being a Paladin with Crusader Aura sure helped. Got a Tower and a GY assault before the rest of my alliance team decided there was in fact too much horde defending Galv.

Commento di 240884

I just did this last night, here's how -

1 - Rode to SH GY, let someone else pull guards, capped GY.
2 - Tried for IW bunker, someone else grabbed it.
3 - Snuck around under the bridge assaulted Dun Baulder North Bunker
4 - Jumped off ravine, killed self to rez at SH GY

Now this where I got lucky -
5 - Recapped FW GY - there was no one guarding it
6 - Alliance tried taking towers in base, easy re-caps
7 - Hung out in the FoS waiting on alliance.

I think the concept of attack first, then defend then go for the FoS kill is probably the best option.

Commento di 229149

I've done this two or three times. It helps a lot if you are stealth.

Alliance
01. Cap Snowfall graveyard
02. Defend Stonehearth graveyard
03. Kill Horde in Field of Strife
04. Cap a tower in Frost Wolf.
05. Recall to Dun Balder and defend a bunker.

Commento di 254498

Managed to do this in a game with about 8 alliance and 20 horde very early in the morning (i'm alliance).

1. Capped Snowfall Graveyard
2. Capped Iceblood Tower
3. Killed a horde in the Field of Strife heading back up.
4. Took back SH graveyard.
5. Took back Icewing Bunker.

It went surprisingly smooth but took about 4 or 5 games to get it right. I would suggest defending a graveyard as soon as you can, that seemed to be the hardest part alongside killing Horde in the field, they tend to just want to ride past.

Commento di Thortok2000

Disconnecting will reset the achievement, even if you rejoin the same game you were in. -.-

Commento di 340386

This one is really hard in my current BG where we (horde) are 40ppl and ally usually around 10, which means they VERY rarely attack our towers and GYs, not to mention how hard it is to get a kill in field of strife.

Commento di Eliandor

If you do the assaulting parts first, you're much more likely to squeeze everything in. For once, over-extended stalemates are a good thing.

This is how I got my achievement:

Commento di redduskCC

I've tried doing this achievement since 3.1.2, did assaulting gy/towers first, then defending tower/gy. The problem I'm having with this is getting credit for killing someone in the field of strife.

3 times today (29 May 2009) I have received credit for everything but the killing portion. I've killed people while we were both in the field of strife multiple times. I got the KB, did 100% of the damage, no achievement.

I did notice that the 'Sickly Gazelle' is a bit buggy, as I died one time, it gave the opposing faction credit for that particular achievement when I was never mounted (stealthed druid hanging out trying to pick off people).

Any other people experiencing similar issues?

Commento di Kanoi

Just completed this achievement (Horde Rogue). As comments have stated above, getting a leg up on assaulting puts you in a good place for it. I personally prefer to use Stonehearth Graveyard as my first step, immediately mount up and go for Icewing Tower as my second. After that, it's a matter of how lightly defended Alliance leaves Iceblood Tower/Graveyard to get a quick snatch on the defending criteria, and whether or not you're lucky enough to pick off a last-minute straggler in the Field of Strife. Definitely a situation-based achievement, and you're obviously not going to be put in a guaranteed position to get it every time, making this rather rewarding.

Commento di piszozo

u need to be lucky really, none of ur plans work if ur not... It makes me HATE av...

Commento di 247941

Horribly difficult Achieve to get, still trying for mine. Problem is on my BG, horde actually leave 4-5 people defending everything. Gonna be rewarding to finally get this one done.

Commento di 464099

Just got this achievement today.

I would suggest to do it in this order.

1.Run And Cap Snowfall Graveyard
2.Kill Someone In Field Of Strife
3.Assault Tower
4.Defend A Tower And A Graveyard.

When it comes down to it,you are in need of some luck.

GL!

Commento di Furydeath

I had everything but, Kill someone in the Field of Strife, and the game was almost over. I see a rogue mounted so I go to kill him after a good fight I died right before he died and it didn't count it. I was like wtf you are kidding me. Lucky after i rezed there was a shadow priest afk in the middle of the field. :)

As a feral Tauren druid with Feral Charge... Do the following in order. It will take some time since a Blitz run can totally mess up your flow but after awhile, you'll know exactly what to do.

Cap a Tower
1) 5 seconds before AV starts, use Dash and be first out of the cave and on your mount.
2) Stay in the lead pack and travel to Stonehearth Bunker.
3) Shift into cat form to dismount as soon as you get to the crater on the southern-side of the bunker.
4) Target the nearest archer and feral charge to get in the bunker.
5) Make your way to the flag and position yourself behind a pillar so you're LOS. Keep tagging the flag. As other players enter the bunker the archers will target them giving you enough time to cap. Once you cap, jump off the west side of the tower and head into the Field of Strife.

Kill a Player in the Field of Strife
Its important that you not spend too much time on this. Simply kill a player in the field on your way to Snowfall GY or, if lucky, thank the nearest horde player who killed someone for you. If you don't get this by the time you make it to Snowfall then you might get it on your way south after Snowfall GY Cap.

Capture a Graveyard
Alliance seem to always leave Snowfall GY unattended. Run up the mountain, capture, and head south for an easy GY Cap. (Remember to kill an alliance player if you see one and haven't received credit for a kill.)

Defend a Graveyard
Frostwolf Graveyard and Iceblood Graveyard are the easiest GYs to defend. To defend a graveyard, you must capture it before it turns to the Alliance. Personally, I've found greater success at Frostwolf Graveyard.

Defend a Tower
Immediately after you've completed the first four objectives, use your Frostwolf Insignia Rank 6 to return to the Frostwolf Keep. As a druid, I had the benefit of stealthing to the side and waiting for an alliance player to show up and Ninja a tower. If the alliance have pushed hard to the south this may be the hardest point to take a tower. Unfortunately, Tower Point and Iceblood Tower have most likely been taken. So, have patience and wait for that alliance player that makes his way south to Ninja the Frostwolf towers. When you see one capped, wait until you see him push into the other tower (so he doesn't see you come out of hiding.) Now, go to the top and cap for great victory.

As a Troll Priest, I am currently working on this and have worked out the following at least for 2 of the 5 steps.

1) Before the start of the game, whilst in the cave, set yourself to autorun, and stand at the gate front, running in place against the gate. When he gate opens you'll get a little head start on all those people sitting back a bit or not paying 100% attention for the start of the game (helps with people with some latency issues as well).

2) As soon as you get out of the cave, mount up, and autorun/ride with the lead pack. More often than not you'll get a Pally with the riding aura turned on so you can further outdistance the rest of the horde pack. You aim here is to get in front, or at the very front of the pack as you can - you need to be first to the graveyard.

3) Ride in a direct line to Stonehearth Graveyard as fast as possible. No stops, no diverts. Most people will peel off for Galv or Balinda. Head to Stonehearth and ride right up to the flag, and PW:Shield yourself (this should auto-dismount you). Fear the 4 guards standing around the flag and instantly attempt to cap the flag/graveyard.

Following these first 3 steps I can get this graveyard about 90% of the time.

Then I mount back up and ride up to the Stormpike Alliance base and ride into the South Bunker at Dun Baldar (the bunker on the left after you cross the bridge into the Alliance base). I tend to have to fight the one NPC who sits at the bottom of the steps outside the bunker, but he is pretty easy/quick to burn down. Then I cap the flag for the tower. I find this is a little bit trickier, because sometimes another hordey may get there first, or may beat you to the flag while you are dps'ing the npc. Sometimes another horde or two will run into the tower and attack the npc's trying to clear the tower, just ignore and go for the flag! I think I get about a 60-75% rate on this tactic.

Note, for the first two steps it doesn't matter if the Alliance take it back... you just need to cap it in the first instance.

As for defending a tower/graveyard, it now depends a lot on luck, especially for a healing priest. These days the main Alliance tactic is to zerg the horde base, so recalling or going back to Frostwolf is not the almost guaranteed tactic it used to be. However, it's still probably the best (hoping you get a recall where the Alliance have been held up somewhere).

As for killing someone in the field of strife... well I would generally leave this to the end - there are people riding through here all the time. Once you get the first (hardest) four tasks done, you just have to find an appropriate victim.

Let me know if you can suggest a helpful tactic for healers to do this.

Commento di 592763

I was able to complete this on my shaman a few days ago, this is how I managed to do it. (Horde PoV)

1) Assault a Tower. Try to get in the front of the pack, and assault Stonehearth Bunker. Typically, it's never guarded, but an easy tip is to stand on the window on the right side, to LoS the arrows since they interupt.

2) Assault a GY- I went directly across and assaulted Snowfall GY. Very easy, and usually quick, if it hasn't been capped at all, there may be one alliance, but very manageable to get those 2 right off the bat.

3) Defend a GY- By the time I finished those two, it was maybe 3 or 4 minutes into the game, which meant the large cluster of ally, were in our base. Of course, they almost always assault Frostwold GY, and leave it un defended. This makes it one of the easiest gy to defend.

4) Defend a Tower- This can be a little challenging. In the bg prior to getting the achievement, I went to try this in Iceblood tower and Tower Point, but both are usually heavily guarded. However, it is much easier to defend in your own base! Use the trinket if you have it to return, and the Frostwolf towers tend to be assaulted an un guarded. This makes it really easy if you can sneak by and defend. (Invis Potion may help, I didn't need one though. I was able to defend both!)

5) A kill in the field of strife- This has ruined my hopes of getting the achievement multiple times. Needless to say it takes a little bit of luck. On my achievement run, on my way to assaulting a tower, members of my team picked off a few in the field, and I was able to get credit. But, I have gone 4/5 requirements and lost it because of this. Usually, if you don't get this withing the first 5 minutes or so, it probably won't be too easy to get. So, I strongly recommend trying to knock this off as you do the assault a tower.

Hope this helped some! Good luck to all of your Battle masters in training :)

Just got it today as a 65 rogue, my first time attempting this achievement. I used the suggested strat above and it worked like a hot damn!

I always keep autorun on when the game is about to start, and I popped sprint 5 seconds before the gates opened, if you're a srs diehard you can run to the left or right a bit where the ground becomes mountable (?) about a yard or 2 before the middle part does, giving you that extra half second of time, which counts when racing DKs/Pallies with increased mount speed.

I hopped on my chopper and was a good 20-30 yards ahead of the pack, assaulted Snowfall GY then doubled back to defend Stonehearth Bunker, I think you need a bit of luck to find this place unguarded, and for me there was only 1 priest at 50% HP defending and attacking the NPCs. Ambush, mut, kidney shot,GG! I got the tower defense then picked off a clothie in Field of Strife as I ran south. I dont know where the team was or why they were moving so slow but I managed to cap Tower Point and didn't even have to go to the horde base.

I then used the trinket to get back to the top of the map as Stormpike GY had been assaulted. I was calling for the GY defense cap in /bg, and was 2 seconds from having it when i got ganked by a 70 twink and then some d-bag defended it while I waited to rez. After much swearing in /g and assurances that the guy who stole my cap would die of nutsack cancer, the horde capped Stonehearth GY.. I ran my ass south and when I got there the score was 300-7 and we were about to win. As soon as the mage who capped ran 20ish yards away I began to cap, my heart thumping like crazy, hands shaking.. right as I capped and got achievement I got smoked by a frostbolt, and then the game ended, we won. Intense!

Well, that's my story. If you plan on doing this in a random BG and/or without stealth it's probably worthwhile to have some friends helping. Good luck everyone!
