[Archaeology] Instant Professor Title incl. Achievement @ Jade Forest

[paranoia69]

Hey Ownedcore Community!

Today happened something really strange with my warlock while questing in Jade Forest. I was at the Tian Monastery doing the quest where you have to pick up oranges
from Greenwood Thiefs.
( A Courteous Guest - Quest - World of Warcraft )

The follow quest was to talk to High Elder Cloudfall, where you can choose between 2 dialogues 2 times, I always clicked the one at the bottom saying "save your time old man, skip this shit" or something like that
( http://wow.zamimg.com/uploads/screen...mal/323229.jpg )

After getting a short black screen because of a cutscene I suddenly unlocked the Professor Title and the achievement for finding 20 rare artifacts
( Professor - Title - World of Warcraft )

But I only found 12 rare artifacts yet, and not 20?!
The day before I solved 1 Mogu and 1 Pandaren rare Item (trinket+speer).

I don't know if this is a bug and if it is repeatable, but it worked for me and now I don't have to waste my time finding more rare artifacts... :d
Achievements just popped up after the cutscene / blackscreen!

First confirm from a user!! This will save you hundred hours of stupid flying around to skill archaelogy and to find rare artifacts ^.^


What did u say? Screenshot or it didn't happened? Well, here you go:

Hope this works for you too and maybe somebody can confirm this!
Happened on a EU realm, today @ 17th of october after server maintenance


Edit: Seems like you have to begin the achievements first to make this work.
If you already have done the quest, try this with another char (85 or higher)

I don't like posting in the elite section, so please don't ask for it.
It´s up to the admins to move threads to elite section, if they really belong in the elite section

Maybe I should mention that you can't get banned for doing this, you are just questing in Jade Forest )

Can someone try this, who already got the achievements? Maybe then it will work for the 100 mounts achievement lol

The same thing also happened to me on a Shadowpriest. Unfortunately though, I was botting at the time (questing) and I just so happened to check on it, when I saw a bunch of archaeology achievements pop up, including Diggerest (100 unique common artifacts). The thing is, I only have 8 rare artifacts and 38 common ones. Also I have archaeology maxed at 525, since I haven't trained Zen Master. This also happened on a EU realm but before today's maintenance.

Worked like a charm xD

Didn't work for me on US. I only have 10 archaeology skill maybe that has something to do with it.

[therealjonnyd]

hey great find btw, but im jw...i already completed all Jade forest quests including this one. Is it still doable ?

[amgrto]

still working ! Thanks !

[Phyrax]

Only got the 1.500 quests achievement, but i don't think that this has anything to do with this.

I tried talking to both those npc's and nothing is interactive. (already completed quests about a week ago) appears you can't get it once complete.

I selected the bottom option twice, then handed in the quest. I then got the black cut scene for roughly 2-3 seconds, but when it finished I didn't receive any achievements. Not working for me - EU Twisting Nether.

Edit:

changed characters and tried it again and I got it this time. weird. but confirmed working. Thank you +rep

[jimmys96]

Confirmed EU after maintence!! I got diggerest, 10 rare artifacts and 20 rare artifacts in less then 2 seconds. Guild reactions ftw +5rep!!!

EDIT: SS of getting the 100 common, 10 rare and 20 rare at the same time

[Sativ]

Nothing happend for me. 1 arch skill rofl.

[jimmys96]

For those who didn't get anything/1 arch skill, what was your skill in it when you did it? and for the rest of you who did get it, what was your at?

Move to elite.
