Confirmed with my alternate accounts. I was able to get it on 2 of my accounts that hadn't played wvw. But did not get it on 2 accounts that I played on before the patch. Players that progressed against the achievement prior to the patch update are put into as state where we can't complete it.
no. Lily gives access to the pof maps. EoN you have to upgrade it and be level 80 to access it. So for people new to the game getting that VIP is really enticing when VIPs sell for 1000 diamonds on gemstore vs getting one for free when you buy deluxe. Not the same thing at all.
Super disappointed about the loss of the a VIP. Now with the old Deluxe taken down, there is no way to get the lily VIP. Please bring it to the gemstore Anet!
