Remember that big controversy in January when all of the progress people had made toward the big Darkmoon Faire achievements was reset? Remember how it happened again a month later, but we were promised that it would be saved from that point forward? Well, you can probably guess what happened:
Orlyia -- Issue - Darkmoon Faire
Orlyia -- Issue - Darkmoon Faire
February's Darkmoon Faire achievement progress status was cleared prior to the launch of March's faire. Any achievements that were started but not completed have had their criteria reset. Completed achievements are unaffected. We previously announced that this was resolved for this month and going forward, unfortunately, that did not happen and this is still being investigated for a resolution.
The following achievements are most likely impacted:
The following achievements are most likely impacted:
- Darkmoon Defender
- Darkmoon Dungeoneer
- Darkmoon Despoiler
At this point, I'd recommend to everyone still working on these achievements that you save up your artifacts and turn them all in during one Faire, in order to ensure credit. For the goblins among us, however, this means it's still a good gold-making opportunity, so check out our guide to profiting off the Darkmoon Faire.

Annnd this just fairly well convinces me that the Faire was intended to be a feature in Mists. They realized that it was the perfect spot for a transmog gear vendor, and that they probably didn't have enough content to keep people who don't raid happy before Mists was released. These sort of issues are relatively unheard of in a Blizzard feature...a blip or two, yes, but the same thing three months in a row is so unusual, it's boggling.
Maybe the achievement feature was tied into their plans to make achievements account wide, and something about that broke something or another. Oi.
