119078-do-world-bosses-still-stack-for-the-attunement

== Content ==
			I am finally doing it for my seven days and I wanted to know if world bosses still stacked.

Stack?  :huh:
 
You need 12 unique bosses, and you can get credit for boss kills even if you're not on the monster hunter part of the quest if the boss has an achievement tied to it.	
----
			
My understanding was each boss will count up to 2 times towards attunement. When you reach that step it tabulates your achievements (there are a number of bosses that will not give an achievement because you are not a member of the faction expected to face that boss). After that it will record ANY world boss towards your attunement process, achievement or not. Killing a boss a third time does not increment your progress.
 
I can at least partially confirm this as when I reached the attunement step I was instantly grandfathered to 91% based on my various world-boss killing achievements and then killed Doomthorn an additional (i.e. second) time to complete that step of attunement.

			Hadn't heard of this...maybe it's a bug where the achievement counts and then if you kill the boss again whilst on the step it still counts on the quest part so it's counting achievements and actual kills separately!	
----
			As far as I know there's no such thing as world boss stacking.

Killing a boss more than once doesn't grant extra credit. You need to kill 12 unique bosses once.

Flatly untrue in my experience. I had already killed Doomthorn. Was credited because of the achievement when reaching that step, then killed him a second time to complete attunement step.
 
Limit is twice. I cannot personal confirm that doing it twice after reaching that step of attunement counts, but once before and once after definitely advances the quest :).

			From someone who has actually completed the attunment process(pre nerf), I have to say that the world boss part of the process is not only *cupcake*ing annoying but absolutely pointless in many respects. It would be more bareable if they had made a Q for world boss encounters and have said group be teleported to the designated location instead of having to wait for the boss to spawn, then try to get a group together to go kill it, and pray that the opposite faction doesnt decide to *cupcake* with you while you are fighting the boss or that they get there before you and kill it. If you were able to kill the same boss twice and have it count toward the attunment it would not feel like suck a chore. just saying.

How about we just remove the world boss step to begin with?
Considering how god damned hard it is to get enough people to fight them down, and how little of a challenge they are anyways, what's the point of them other than to waste time and make the process tedious and annoying as hell for those trying to find groups and catch up?
 
Aren't the dungeons enough as it is?
 
Attunement is an old archaic MMO mechanic that stunts the general population of players in an MMO from getting to experience and play your game's content.
Many people will argue "but it filters out bads" That's why you raid with a group and not random pugs, The raids should be difficult as hell, yes but getting there being annoying and overdone to the point of not really providing anything to learn is not difficult, it's annoying and tedious.
You can use your guild as a way to filter out "the bads," and besides, I remember voodoo and other guilds shouting "we'll carry you through vet dungeons for x amount of Plat!"
Carried players aren't any better than bad players, so what exactly is the point of attunement if it does nothing but keep possible players from game content?

I honestly could not agree more.

			In my experience after doing it a third time now.since drop 3 all bosses that had a title are cross faction achievements now btwany bosses you killed and got the achievement for will count ahead of time and are basically locked out for progressany bosses you killed after getting the quest will give the achievement and credit and then be locked outbut if for some reason you don't get the achievement you will still get credit and can do it again and if you get the achievement it will give more credit but if you don't get the achievement you won't get more creditIt's weird and shouldn't be necessary to use at all.
