Achievement mythicdungeons shadowlands

Fates of the Shadowlands Raids is a dungeon & raid achievement earned by completing all three Fated raids in Shadowlands Season 4.

The achievement rewards Inv catslimemount [Jigglesworth, Sr.], one of the anticipated mounts from the Choose the Next Shadowlands Mount community vote, the Gooey Slimesaber which did not win the vote.

Controversy

Despite the description of this achievement stating that it was achievable "on any difficulty", implying the inclusion of LFR, since this achievement's debut 2 months before the start of season 4, Blizzard in the last week stated that it won't be possible to obtain through LFR.

No, that will not be possible in Season 4.

On 1 August 2022, the achievement's wording was hotfixed to state "Normal difficulty or higher".[1] Because of this, players have openly expressed their thoughts due to the poor communication for this ordeal and the wait for two months where these achievements were viewable in retail servers stating "any difficulty".[2][3]

Patch changes

  • Shadowlands Hotfix (2022-08-01): Now states "on Normal difficulty or higher".
  • Shadowlands Patch 9.2.5 (2022-05-31): Added.
