It's difficult to know if something has already been suggested because we don't have a forum search.

I think a pet playing with different toys could be a good one to add. Maybe the minions too now that we have a minion zoo. Buying items from user shops would be easy for us to achieve because we do that when we're questing.

I like all these. Sure they're stuff we do anyway, but the higher tiers could be more challenging.

The toy one has been in the works for a long time already. I don't know if staff have given up or put it on hold. Long ago, plushies and beanbags were toys you would play with. When they were considering toy achievements they decided to make plushies and beanbags non-playable because they felt it would be duplicating already existing achievements. So they did that, then never got around to actually making a toy achievement.

One concern is with the minion zoo. It really sucks in a lot of ways and its buggy. It allows duplicates, unlike all the other collections, so I would either bar duplicates in the collection or make the numbers much higher. Finally you can remove items from it, which, okay you can also do with wardrobe so I'm not sure how that should impact achievements. Either way, I wouldn't introduce achievements related to it until its more stable.

The other issue is buying from user shops. I would make less tiers with higher intervals and a much higher final number. This information is already tracked through the Restock Royalty trophy on our profiles so it can be made retroactive.

I am always for more achievements, especially ones that we do anyways.

I really do wish they would do some minion achievements. They could make it have to be a certain amount of different minions so the duplicates would not make a difference. That way people could still keep their duplicates if they want.

The toy achievement would be cool too but I am kind of dreading doing all that collecting,lol.

I so wish there were minion collecting achievements, the only worry for that is having to making the minion zoo like the plushie/beanbag collections where you can't remove them after they're added. I don't see why they would Have To do that, but I just worry they might.

The reason the minion zoo allows duplicates is that it was supposed to be an (easier!) alternative to the rather complicated battle system here and you could have two very differently skilled minions of the same type. Minion fighting appears to have gone by the wayside? Now it appears to be a specialized gallery but with less function.

I agree with 's comments about buying from shops.

I'm on the HST for Random. and the amount of sP collected by some of us is truly staggering so those tiers seem awful small.

if you have a discount card already that gets counted. You can estimate your buff savings based on that number. For instance I have the 30, so my buff savings would be less than half of that, but not a lot less because when I start restocking I can go for an hour or two. How much less for you depends on the value of your card (if any) and how persistent a restocker you are once the discount gets triggered.

My Dashboard says that over twelve years I have saved 430MsP so roughly 35MsP per year and I will say a third of that was not bargained for/buff discounted so 25MsP per year. Most older players would blow right past the Suggested top level of tierage.

I'm all for minion collecting achievements. As fun as having duplicates in there are - having thirteen just because you can lol - they could allow only one of each minion as some have suggested, or have the same system as the food one for pets where only unique minions are counted towards the total. I'd also like to see achievements for collecting minion sets, such as having all of Esther's 2019 minions in your zoo, or all of the horse minions on site, that sort of thing yknow?

Also you got my vote for random score, user shop buying, and discount saving - adjust the tiers a little but good achievements overall.

Restock Royalty tracks purchases from NPC shops, not user shops. I don't know if they have enough data to make a user shop achievement retroactive.

I'd also worry that for that one specifically it could lead to some major lag and/or screw up the economy as everyone rushes out to mass-purchase items. I'd err on the side of not implementing any achievements that encourage that kind of behavior.

The rest of the suggestions are fine, but I have to say no to adding achievements to user shops.

You're completely right. I mean I obviously read user shop and wrote user shop, but was still somehow thinking it was about NPC shops. Actually I don't think there should be an achievement for buying from user shops - too easy to abuse between friends.

If there's an achievement for buying from shops, it should be NPC shops, though that can also mess things up, especially in the early days of the achievement. People trying to quest while others are trying to just buy anything from the shops for the achievement...would get so frustrating and empty shops would become a real thing.

Questathons do the same thing, where they empty out shops just because folks have the sP and they can. Emptying all the shops would add value to items up to and until people fill all their usershops and don't wanna manage their Vault anymore and need to do major dumpage. It would be exciting for awhile, but Subeta can survive this.

While it's true that there's already a Trophy for this, it was intentional to move away from trophies to Achievements so this might be a way to retire this trophy.

Do people really do that during quest-a-thons? If it does happen, I can't image it being that widespread. The main stress during quest-a-thons is from people buying from shops in order to complete quests, of which there are a limited number each day so it's not so bad. Asking people to mass purchase thousands of items from user shops for achievements will A) encourage more people to participate and B) result in more overall purchases per person because they're not limited by daily quests.

Yeah, I'm sure things will settle down eventually and the site will survive, but I still don't think it's a good idea to implement achievements and features that put that much stress on the servers for so little gain.

On the flip side, an achievement for NPC shop purchases sounds more reasonable given that traffic will be limited by the relatively small number of items restocking and higher wait time between purchases. It won't be constant pandemonium like with user shop purchases.

yep they do do that, and also for the restock wars we've had where we feed snowball throwers/equip omen island tomb raiders. I agree that it may be too stressful to be worth it though.

NPC Shop delays are quirky and can cause problems too.

I really want a way for the 'cursed' title to come back into play since they removed that from the 'do x amount of quests for Nori/Mori'

Also I wouldn't mind titles being added to 'doing x amount of quests for ___' all the quest givers.

Otherwise, I like a lot of the suggestions here. I'm personally not for a x # of minions achievement fan, especially if it goes the route of plushies/beanbags. I enjoy/love my Minion collection, though some of them might end up in pet TCs and some are pretty pricey that getting duplicates for a collection would be hard for me, personally, to do.

I'm not objected it to for others, just for me xD.

I love the rest but this one I believe should only be tied to actually using a discount card in NPC shops, it would encourage people to actually buy a discount card to use and encourage people to restock.

I believe we need more achievements for battling to encourage people to try this out more.
