Do you guys do any WvW and if so, on what server?

@Danikat.8537 said:You can tell as soon as you enter the instance which achievements you're eligible for because there will be an icon alongside your buffs and conditions to show which ones are active. If that's not there then you need to complete the episode on that character first. If it disappears without you getting the achievement then it means you failed or missed the opportunity.
From HoT onwards some of those markers only appear when you enter the section where you can earn the achievement, for example if there's one for fighting a boss in a certain way it will only appear when you enter the encounter with the boss, but in Season 2 they all appear right from the start. (I think this is because from HoT onwards the achievements can be done on your first play-through on that character, so they hide the achievement markers to avoid spoilers.)
Finally there are some achievements which will not be awarded until you've completed the entire instance. The Party Politics ones all work this way if I remember correctly, because your suspicion level can change at almost any time through the instance. If you're sure you've done everything right to earn an achievement but it hasn't been awarded it's always worth completing the instance to see if it's awarded then.
Yet another helpful post. Thank you!
I feel its a odd system, that you cant complete some achievement on the first try during the story. Instead you have to replay it. Not sure the reason behind that. Nevertheless, now I know and don't have to trial and error anymore.

@Linken.6345 said:Just a question did you replay the same mission twice on the exact same character?Yes, but I didn't complete the entire LW S2, just that Episode, episode six I think it was.

@Ayrilana.1396 said:No. You need to complete the LS2 episode first.OK, got it. Thank you! You have saved me a lot of time and effort. I've replayed some of those chapters four or five times already.

So in other words, I need to complete HoT first, then go back and replay every chapter in LW S2 to get all those achievements? And if that is true, is it the same with LW S3 and PoF?

I've notice that some achievements during the LW S2 doesn't work even though I successfully complete them. Take for instance Sneaky Sleuth, Super Sleuth and Shoddy Sleuth during the Party Politics. Even though I followed both suggestions on the Wiki and on Dulfy.net I still don't get the achievement. I read somewhere they some of those you need to replay the chapter in order to get, since some are opposite to each other (like in my next example), but no matter if I do it on a fresh character or replay it, I don't get credit for it.
The other example is during Caithe's Reconnaissance Squad and there is one, No Thanks to Canach, that should be impossible to fail. I don't plant any mines on any of the Mordred corpses and yet I don't get the achievement for it. There is another one, the opposite so to speak, where you plant mines on all corpses (10 of them) which I've done, I counted them all. Still, no achievement after I leave the instance.
So before I send a ticket a Anet, have anyone experienced this and/or have any suggestions on what could have gone wrong? Like I wrote, the No Thanks to Canach should be impossible to fail (don't plant any mines, which I don't!) and yet I don't get any achievement. I can't imagine that the achievement is calculated and given to the player first after the entire chapter is complete?

Yes, this is still bugged after all these years...
What worked for me, as suggested by people in this thread, was to run ahead and kill everything before speaking to Tonn. I left the Kraits when they spawned at the third tower and after speaking to Tonn and starting the quest we hugged the mountain wall when we got there and Tonn went ahead and blew the tower. I also made sure to stick with the group when I went between the towers. The spiders had respawned and that pack animal acted a bit weird both this time and the previous bugged one, running far back in to the cave after each fight, so I made sure he caught up before moving on

It all sounds good. Just one question though. How active are you in WvW?
