After years of complaints (nearly 14 years, to be exact), Blizzard finally tweaked one of World of Warcraft’s most frustrating Achievements to make getting an exclusive mount a little easier.
The Achievement in question is the School of Hard Knocks. Since the game’s Wrath of the Lich King expansion from 2008 (which will actually be re-released later this year), the Achievement has been required as part of a larger “meta Achievement” for the entire Spring Week seasonal event. Children, For the Children. That achievement, in turn, was required for the It’s Been Such a Long and Strange Journey, comprising several seasonal event meta-achievements. The reward for all this busy work? An exclusive mount: the Violet Proto-Drake.
