Faster way of getting "Death from above" achievement: And still get all your marks!

[ShrekfromAzgalor]

I found out that when you get the "fire in the skies" daily, you can get on the firebird, bomb/hit the rare elemental for the achievement, return to the front and leave your unfinished quest in ur logs. Come back after 2 a.m. (I play central time on Azgalor) and the firebird will not be there. Drop your quest, get the new daily and complete it. On the following day, you will get the "fire in the skies" daily again since you didn't actually do it yest. I've tried it twice and both times it has worked for me!!

P.S. Dailies reset at 4 a.m. on my realm.

the quests are random, this doesn't work

1. The quest ARE NOT random. You'll have Death from Above one day, and the other the next day, then DFA again...
2. This (unfortunately) has been fixed... I was doing it for a while, but I can't do it anymore (EU servers)

[ShrekfromAzgalor]

They might be random, but I can assure you I just got fire in the skies today too making it 3x in a row....coincidence? try it!

p.s. U.S. Realm

4 days in a row! still working on U.S. realms.

[ShrekfromAzgalor]

6 days in a row i've gotten "fire in the skies." Can anyone else confirm this?

[Knoob]

Pretty clear that its not random as getting the same quest 6 days in a row is something like (1/3)^6 which is 1 in 729. My math may be wrong, so feel free to correct. Also, I've read that either of the NON-Death From Above quests will guarantee DFA the next day.
