The OverAchiever: The 25 most entertaining achievements, part 1
Back in May, we kicked around the idea of reversing gears after our series on "The 25 most evil achievements," and today I'd like to start the first in our series on ... well, I had trouble naming it. "Most fun achievements" is a bit awkward. "Best achievements?" Probably too vague, especially because we could all spend hours arguing over what constitutes a truly good achievement. "Least evil?" That doesn't do much to inspire readers. Finally I settled on "most entertaining achievements," and I hope that's a decent gloss on the series that will follow. Today we'll examine the first five, with more to follow next week. In a nutshell, I think these are the achievements that every WoW players should do, if only because they showcase some of Blizzard's best, most engaging or funniest work.
The OverAchiever: The Keymaster
Hot on the heels of a much larger achievement we've recently covered (Twenty-Five Tabards), I've decided to do The Keymaster in this article for two reasons: I recently watched Ghostbusters. Do I need another reason? Actually, the other reason is that if you've done Twenty-Five Tabards, Keymaster is usually pretty easy because you've likely got some Burning Crusade faction rep under your belt. I could tack on a third -- I'm constantly surprised at the number of players who aren't keyed for some of the old-world dungeons, and by "surprised," possibly I mean "irritated," because I keep getting pestered to go open doors. Happily, just about all of these keys can be soloed at 80 for most classes, and none of them are particularly time-intensive (with the possible exception of the Scholomance key due to insane travel time) to get.
