    You don’t actually have to give Skrilla any gold. 3 times 1 copper got me the achievement

    • Ds1405

      Me too! I only spent 3 copper.. skritts have enough shinies already XD

      • Team Lazy

        I think the text is misleading. Whatever you click it will give her 1 gold.

        • Urosh Uchiha Novakovic

          I actually clicked silver 3 times and got the achie, not sure how much money it took from me though.

          • Mihai Pop

            I don’t think this works anymore. I just gave her 3 copper and it didn’t give me the achi. Also, now it does mention you need to give her 3 gold.

  • nadrian3k

    So..in order to “repeat” the instance for “I’m rubber; You’re destroyer” I have to restart the instance..if you finish it you need to do the WHOLE episode from 0..so to repeat just THAT particular mission, i have to intentionally d/c before the end of the mission and get back ingame?

    • Ancient One

      Once you’ve completed the episode the first time, you can reactivate it for achievements and go to any of the instances. There’s no need to re-do the entire episode from the beginning. Just go to the start point under Tarir with Rising Flames selected in your story journal.

      • nadrian3k

        I just did that..but there’s no star at the tarir event..the only event star i get is at the start of the whole thing even tho i fully finished everything.

  • guest20151008

    Didn’t get credit for “Maintain Aurene’s Shield”. It was on a guardian character. Somewhat buggy at the beginning as I skipped the cutscene and began fighting some destroyers before moving to the center of the dias and having the Exalted only then instruct us to defend the shield.

  • Lumx

    for Collecting Coalescence, you’ll still receive achievement point even if you fail the defense event

  • Aria of the FENG

    The ‘Patron’ achievement is (now?) under the Tradesman tab in the achievements panel.

  • Nosferatuvn

    hi,\ i have finish the Story and all archivement, but i dont have the yellow star for “Master Achievment Reward” someone knows why?\ I have not only the Tradesman – > Patron achivement – do i really need them for the master achivement?

    • Dulfy

      It is bugged right now and requires that Patron achievement. You can wait for a hotfix though rather than spending 1k gold.

  • Raizel

    Unluckily they just fixed the Hungry Hal bug (did it just in time :P) with latest patch.

    • Dennis van Nierop

      I’ve just tried this the ‘normal/nerfed’ way and it’s already doing my head in. Trees also don’t seem to respawn apples that quickly.

  • Knight_ldr

    Hi Dulfy, this Meta achievement has changed.

    It now only requires 23 individual achievements to complete.

  • Brian Stoepker

    Since when does Dulfy endorse exploits? :/

  • Barbecow

    There is a secret achievement on reddit. You have to hand in 7 pieces of ship thingy to the ghost. You can hand only one per day. It rewards with 10k karma and 3AP.\ https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/54ic8x/new_hidden_achievement_in_ember_bay_spoilers/

  • Thetruthísntalwayspopular

    The apple one is just pathetic. Way to go Anet for GRIND.

    • Eggbutt

      It’s actually mocking other MMOs’ fetch quests. ANet hate things like this, and it’s a one-off, just for a laugh.

      • Thetruthísntalwayspopular

        Yeah Hilarious. It’s so funny that they also do fetch quests under the guise of “collections”……

  • iquaniqua

    Can i replay the dragon vigil to try and get the achievements there, or must i redo the whole episode?

    • Harr

      You don’t need to redo the whole episode to replay Dragon Vigil. Once you have finished the whole episode, you can go back to your Story Journal and restart the Episode for Rising Flames. After that, you can just go to the purple star to start the Dragon Vigil again (in Tarir). 🙂

  • Ysabet Aillard

    Ember Bay Insight: Bleeding Pulpit – 1 AP, 1 Mastery –> Its right name is: “Ember Bay Insight: Ashen Skerries”

  • Roel Reyes

    Is the trick for hungry hal still do able at this time?

    • YeFox

      No it isn’t

      • John

        Buh\ Mer\ 🙁

  • John

    Do you only get one apple a day from each tree? Or does it take like an hour, few hours, several hours for the fruit to come back?

  • Xionema

    There’s an error. In the “Skrilla’s Benefactor” achievement, it can only be acomplished with gold donations, copper won’t work.

  • Killy2250

    Anyone know if you need to collect 7 pieces for ‘The Friendly Ghost’ and hand them in at the same time? I’ve been collecting them for 4-5days and just handing them in immediately so I hope I don’t have to start over….

  • Suricata Liu

    for the im rubber ur destroyer. just dont care about the destroyer of hope and use bomb on minion. shield always regen u cant fail
