I've gotten this on 6 different toons over the year. Suck it up and get in there.

Precisely. Achievements like Going Down? have given players a sense of entitlement. This achievement is difficult, as achievements should be. Still can't get it? Play better.
You've got to be kidding me, that achievement is the easiest thing ever.
Stormwind Harbour, Orgrimmar near flight master are two guaranteed places to get it.

I think Arkayn was talking about the Hard Knocks achieve, not the Falling Down one.

Yup, misread completely. Read entitlement as achievement, lol. Fair play, apologies.

Somebody posts this every year, tbh its not that bad. Like 50% of the BGs will be trying to get it, and the other players (even those on the oposing faction) will usually oblige you and be kool about it. Honestly if you wanna feel bad for somebody, feel bad for all the pvpers trying to get their conquest points that week lol.

I will be there, queueing for BGs on my priest and rogue this year.
Whilst it is difficult and potentially time-consuming, it isn't impossible. I've seen a lot of co-operation from both sides to help people get it done. I hope to be in the WSG flag room picking up then dropping the flag whilst I see orphans out with people waiting (unless you try and kill me!).

The issue is, there are griefers who go out of their way to murder anyone with an orphan out...which in turn, makes the pvp experience that much worse during that week lol.

I did the entire Children's week meta in 6 hours last year. Including this achievement with no assistance from friends/guildies. If you can't do it in a week, something is wrong.

I rarely pvp, and certainly never have bought pvp gear on my main.. but honestly, I did this one the first year without any problem. I think people spend way more effort complaining about it than actually attempting it. I know the AV one was almost a joke the last few years because people actually try to help you get it.

I actually like the fact that a few achievements are still difficult, if you want to take this bit out you may as well just gift it to everybody. Surely it's good to have to work for something sometimes? and it's not like it's nigh on impossible by the number of people that do manage to do it.

as part of the acheive description they call them feats. like the feats of strength they're supposed to be a bit more difficult than, say, getting a haircut or falling without dying or doing the same daily 5 times in a row. i totally empathize with the OP's plight (not into pvp anymore) but without a challenge what's the point of any of it?

If you are a PvPer stay away from these BGs for a week, no side will try to win. If you gonna try the achiev you better have low ping, at least in WSG, don't bother with ST in AB unless you have 20ms latency or less. You might be lucky and find a BG where horde helps but don't count it. As for this year, achievement and meta stay the same.

The Drake is a special mount, a reward for a massive effort within the game, and something to brag with.
It shouldnt be easy, and it shouldt be handed out just because people dont like pvp. I dont like visiting dozens of bonfires or elders, why not remove every requirement that a person doesnt like and just hand out the mount for creating a account?
No this aint a elitist moron speaking. Just try and do the BG reqs for the quest, if you fail, try again next year, heck you might even end up having fun while doing it, and will start liking bgs.
PVP-freaks shouldnt whine either, its just one week every year. And its nothing to whine about, new players, pve gear and odd tactics, just enjoy the slightly different BGs and adapt to it, you might also enjoy the break from the usual strategies and usual opponents.

no lies at all...i got that my first yr of playing...was very easy, only took like 1-2hrs.
AB - get ST or farm ( facton dependant)
EotS - zerg middle
AV - get tower whilst first "boss" getting killed
WSG - stay near EFC all the time ( easier as stealth)

Wrong, queue premades and farm the crap out of people who don't usually pvp. Easymode kills are easy.
