I kind of feel cheated that it was first, since it's a Feat of Strength and not an achievment. :-/

Have to agree with Volatire: Feats of Strength are not achievements. If they counted as achievements there would be no reason for the existance of Feats of Strength.

I'm not entirely sure it's worth splitting hairs over whether something is an achievement or Feat of Strength. Feats of Strength are simply a subset of Achievements that don't have a point value attached to them. The main difference between them is possibility.

An achievement is something that, given enough time, effort, talent, and teamwork, can hypothetically be done by anyone.

A feat of strength may simply be technically impossible for a subset of players to complete.

Achievements like "Insane in the Membrane" are a special class, however, as they are technically available for anyone to complete but are labeled Feats of Strength anyway. There are no restrictions that could bar a person from doing them. You just have to be nuts to want them.

So yes, there are differences, but trying to say "OMG FEATS OF STRENGTH AREN'T ACHIEVEMENTS" is like saying a square isn't a rectangle (hint: it is).

I didn't find it too hard, just took patience. Did it over the course of here and there months.

and actually, I am both Honored with Bloodsail at the same time as Exalted with the Goblins. Now THAT was a little soulcrushing because that is the SECOND time i've had to grind goblins from 0/36000 hated to exalted
