What the achievement asks
Complete each of the three Vale of Eternal Blossoms assaults at least once. Five points, account-wide, both factions.
| Assault |
|---|
| Assault: The Warring Clans |
| Assault: The Endless Swarm |
| Assault: The Black Empire |
One at a time, on rotation
Only one assault runs in the Vale at any moment, and the three take turns. There is no way to choose, so the achievement is a matter of checking until each has come round.
Assault: The Black Empire is shared with Uldum, which means it appears in the Vale only half as often as it appears anywhere. It is almost always the last of the three to be ticked.
The assault has to be completed while it is running. Progress does not carry over to the next rotation.
When the Black Empire assault is up, go
Four other achievements depend on that particular assault, so it is worth reorganising a day around it:
- It's Not A Tumor! wants a hundred corruption tumors, which exist only during it.
- Combating the Corruption wants ten kinds of corrupted creature, likewise.
- All Consuming needs Consuming Maws, which only spawn where N'Zoth is attacking.
- The Rajani reputation comes from the Vale's assault work.
Its counterpart
Uldum has its own version, Uldum Under Assault, with two different assaults and the same shared third.
