My sympathies. I've had similar issues at different times, though not at the moment. I also felt that my internet connection was not the problem, but after power-cycling my router and rebooting my computer, things improved. It's worth a shot, if you haven't done this already.
I have had Yogg played against me twice, and both times I was briefly disconnected, just long enough to miss what he did. Has this happened to anyone else?
I've seen several threads about specific achievements, but not a dedicated forum for sharing tips and seeking help (perhaps I missed it?). So here goes: If you are looking to share or obtain helpful ideas about the new in-game achievements, here is a place to do so.
I'll start with a PSA: I completed the Demon Hunter one where you need a 10-attack Redeemed Pariah, and I tried to cheat using Abusive Sergeant. It did not work. You need to actually play 8 Outcast cards to buff his attack to 10.
So who else has a tip to share or needs some help?
so ... nothing really worth to spend time to achieve ... tks
That's about right. Do note that some of them (Darkmoon and Duels based ones) reward actual XP, but everything else is just bragging rights, I guess. This bugged me a quite a bit at first too.
Good news buddy, this week's brawl will be "Captain Blackheart's Treasure", so it should only take you about 17,954 hours to play it 65 times! Think about all the hourly XP you'll gain!
Well, sad to say these Achievement points are for nothing - they´re just "bragging" points, a visual number just like total wins. Only Achievements that give XP are those with the chest icon (in Darkmoon or Duels section), sadly others don´t count for it.
Thanks for pointing this out, I had not noticed it myself. There are so damn may of them!
Does anyone know what these "Achievement Points" are good for? At first I thought I was getting XP for these, but then I noticed it was a separate thing.
You get xp for grinding the darkmoon achievements.
For the rest it goes to funding for an ever longer e-penis, as many would call it.
Hmm, ok. My "e-penis" is like over 8000 points long. Is that good? Does anyone really care?

Has anyone else noticed that achievements popping up can spoil things? I was playing Battlegrounds and was just cueing into a battle when the Achievement for "Playing a game with (whatever hero I was)" showed up in the bottom left. That told me I was dead. It's impressive that the game can calculate the battle results that quickly, but I would prefer if it not tell me until it's happened.
So with both daily and weekly quests, plus 4 of each instead of three, we will clearly be raking in the XP. I am looking forward to getting a sense for the value of all that XP.
This is very interesting! Some of these will take some real work to get them done! I am hoping once things get going we can develop a sense for the "value" of XP. When I earn 50 or 60 gold, I know what that's worth. I don't know how good 1750 XP is.
If you get XP for time played, rather than number of games played, it would make no difference whether you played one 30-minute game or six 5-minute games.
I'm going to be optimistic about this one. I know if might not pan out, but being able to deal 3 as a battlecry has been consistently good for board control and sometimes finishing.

Wouldn't it be a 1 in 6 chance (about 16%) to get Rod of Roasting?

Wheeeeee! Thanks again!

Meh. It could be a decent tempo play, but the buff on its own is too small, especially when there are much more powerful hand buff available.
Too many "vendors"! This is fun, and a bit funny, but probably not a great card.
I love this card for its flavor, and I think it's decently playable. Lots of Rush synergy available this expansion.
The fact that this says "summon" instead of "play" gives it insane synergy with a lot of cards, like those that summon "riders".

This card wins the "creepiest card" award IMO. Reminiscent of Eerie Statue.
