BG achievements outside of BGs!

[c4tuna]

In the vein of that other thread saying you can continue BG achievements by logging out and logging back in only after the BG ends, I found out today during a naxx run that statistics done outside BGs count toward BG achievements as well. Observe...

Check the chatlog. I'm going to do testing later to see if this works with harder ones like wrecking ball and BG specific ones, soon as this naxx ends. The player confirmed on vent that he had logged out mid-BG earlier in the day and hadn't rejoined one. At the very least it could be useful for Damage Control

(the shaman in question who got the achieve was ele, got the achievement from healing stream ticks, this was the second wing in)

and inb4 people try to give me shit for not blacking out names, who cares?

i had this in kara as an lv 70 paladin :P

Partial Repost, the other method is to go back into a BG, logging out before end and then re-queing, but awesome for achievements about damage and such.

Got this during oculus run.

Not sure if did BG before that but semi-confirmed

[c4tuna]

Having gone over all the BG achieves, it looks like only this and Wrecking Ball are doable outside of the BG... gonna get a couple allies together to confirm Wrecking Ball works like this (which is VERY useful because it's one of the hardest achieves in the game)

Damage Control has been bugged since achievements were released, got mine during some heroic run a week or so after wrath release. Not an exploit, the BG you did before had nothing to do with it.

Indeed, Damage Control is up until this current patch still bugged. In Naxxramas where you fight Death Knight NPCS, they also count towards that achievement.

And judging from your screen, it seems that I am correct. Since there lays dead death knights on the floor.

Lol, this happened to me the BG just started and when the timer went to 0 and the BG started i got it

--It was in a WG btw

[dohi312]

[darkaroo]

[j4m35x]

Thanks man!

[Darknights]

yeah lol i never worked out how this works myself but i got damage control whilst doing defeating some of the champions at argent tournament. After finishing 3 of them i healed myself again and the 75k heal musta finished off the 300,000 you need.
