Maybe i'll get around to this tomorrow, but the table could do with an extra column on the end of each row with the Zone and precise location. No need to bury the information. -Chieftain AlexUser Chieftain Alex sig.png 00:03, 23 May 2018 (UTC)

Give it a good thinking before to start that achievement[edit]

I believe it is meaningful to highlight that additional to the fact that the offerings are very expensive (gold and mats sink), many of the locations require to complete events that are group events (can't be done solo). In certain maps, due to low population, it's close to impossible to get those events done. Best chance is to go with a team of guildies who are kindly enough willing to help. Note that the worst one is Offering for Jungle Restoration that requires to do the meta event of area Dragon't Stand! Therefore, to avoid massive frustration, make sure that the reward is - for you - worth the invest of time, efforts, gold and mats. --Tilu 10:04, 18 March 2020 (UTC)

The only Offerings that require to do events are:
  • Offering for Jungle Restoration - Use the Event timer to see when the meta is about to start. If you join the map 10 mins before the meta starts you're very likely to find a large group of players waiting for it. Even then, with mounts you can reach Mordremoth's Vantage without doing the meta, but this might be harder to do than just doing the meta.
  • Offering for Cooperative Strength - Might require events to enter the area, but those can be easily soloed.
  • Offering for Elemental Stability - This one is extremely hard to do solo. But you can always ask your guild mates, people in the map, or even people in Lion's Arch. It doesn't take that many people to complete the event. And, even if you wipe, the boss never goes back to a previous phase.
  • Offering for Elemental Recovery - Again, just use Event timer to see when the meta is about to start. This one is another world boss, like Drakin Cinderspire, but unlike that fire shaman, this world boss is in the world boss rotation, so 100% of the time a group of players will be there by the time the meta starts and you'll have no trouble killing him.
So, yeah, there are only 2 Offerings that are actually hard to do, so do not despair. Hope this helps. Warming Hearth (talk) 12:50, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
For clarification: I was not saying not to do the achievement. I was just highlighting that it costs time, efforts, gold and mats. For casual players, players with limited playing time and solo players, it can become quite a bother to complete that achievement. In such cases, it's worth questioning self if the reward is something we really want, rather than starting and giving up later, after having already invested mats and gold.--Tilu
