Este logro se conseguía si lograste acabar la gran cadena de misiones para abrir ahn'quiraj ahun así que alguien se hubiera llevado ya la montura, actualmente las misiones para abrir esta mazmorra las han eliminado y consigo la única manera de hacer este logro, este logro te lo daban en el mismo dia en qué pusieron el parche 4.0.3.

Historia del WoW - Veterano del Mar de Dunas

Comentario de majinvegito123

I've been waiting for an achievement for this!

Comentario de Alcanarias

Not to cheapen the rarity of the Scarab Lord title, but wouldn't it be cool if this FoS rewarded the title 'name, Veteran of the Shifting Sands'.

Comentario de Willardfatman

I always suggested giving players "<name>, Of the Shifting Sands" for this. Fitting as the man who starts the chain has it. =P

Comentario de tmptfate

This Feat of Strength is rewarded for completing the quest El tesoro del Atemporal. It went active in game with the 4.0.1a Hotfix on December 30th, 2010.

This was the last step of the massive Ahn'Qiraj Scepter quest chain, which was required to unlock the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj and Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj raids for the entire server back in Classic WoW.

edit: added links and date it went active for epicness

Comentario de 114233

Will they remove the quest chain when this FoS will be added?Or will it be still available and doable so everyone can get it?

Comentario de Alcest

Just completed this over the course of 3 days, finished just now.

While you're going for the green scepter shard, make sure the Wrath Corrupter isn't bugged... He's bugged on Suramar, so I asked blizz to fix him quickly. They will simply give you his fragment.

Best of luck on doing all the raids, getting the Elementium Ore (Ingots), and whatnot.

And yes, this quest is still FULLY doable at 4.0.1. I am living proof.

Comentario de 630294

I completed this on my main(hunter) and started it on my shaman for the recipie. When i read about the feat i thought why not.

The Corruptor for the Green Shard is doable just only if u have 7-9 fully geared players burning him down. We still had an MC go off and the paladin destroyed 2 players and nearly myself(healer),

Everything else works just fine just remember FFA loot on Ony and Rags for the chapter or else they wont drop and you will be out one week and possibly the acheivement.

Comentario de 689982

Are you sure this is possible to complete after 4.0.1? It says you can no longer bang a gong, but I'm pretty sure you can.

Comentario de 46255

Finished it in 3 days (even tho I had hated reputation with gadgetzan when I started) .
was alot of fun.

If only I would have known how quick this was to actually do at 80, I would have done it back when the gong quest was "bonkable" on a fresh server.

But worth it, still!

now add "of the Shifting Sands" title with this upcoming FoS please :)

Comentario de 694897

Do i feel this needs a title? eh, not really. But several FoS achievements i feel shouldn't have a title but did anyway (bloodsail admiral.lolz) and other FoS achievements that most definitely should have (hero of shattrath). I would most definitely NOT complain if this got a title but its really not hard at all to complete, most completed this in a matter of days up to a week or two and it would make scarab lord title feel....different. Its easy to understand why there is no title, just be happy blizzard was willing to put in an FoS for it. It's just too bad future subscribers to WoW will never experience such an epic quest chain, things have to change though or the game would get boring for those that did experience it xD

Comentario de Kathucka

If you want this Feat of Strength, here's what you need to know:

The chain starts with What tomorrow brings in Silithus.

It must be completed before the Shattering, which should be a few days before the Cataclysm expansion set is released on December 7, 2010. November 22 is probably the last possible day. After that, the entire quest chain and everything related to it will be permanently removed from the game.

To complete it, you'll need:

Neutral reputation with Brood of Nozdormu. This can be soloed via turn-ins if you are on this chain (takes around six hours if you're fast). Three full clears of AQ-40 will also do the trick (and then some).
A bunch of mats, notably ten Elementium Ingots. These sell for at least 1000G each. The price is spiking as people try to complete this feat of strength. Other than the sheer time this takes, this is probably the hardest part of the chain.
At least two raids on Blackwing Lair. More like three or four, if you're gathering the Elementium Ingots yourself. Remember that whoever is going is probably going to have to be attuned, so allow some time for this.
One full clear of Molten Core.
One full clear of Onyxia's Lair. Either 10-man or 25-man works.
Five outdoor raid bosses. These can be soloed at 80, but it's a lot easier with three players. Bring along friends so they can see these bosses before they go away forever. The Moonglade one is especially epic.
Visits deep into the heart of Undercity and Stormwind.
A visit to the Sunken Temple.
Travel all over the damn world to talk to, look at, and/or kill lots of things.
At least nine bag slots. More, depending on the order you do things in.

Before you kill Nefarian, Onyxia, and Ragnaros, turn on Free-for-all loot. This will allow you to loot the quest items properly. If you have group loot or master loot turned on, you will not be able to see or loot the quest items until whoever is noted on the corpse as having loot right-clicks on the corpse. That's a pain if someone hearths out early or is disconnected or whatever.

The Elementium Ingots are semi-farmable. Find a pack with Blackwing Technicians. Kill all the technicians, but leave the other mobs alive. Then die. The pack will re-spawn, with the technicians. You can then loot and do it again. Keep a friend who can resurrect you nearby, but out of combat. Or, play on a hunter, and do the same thing with Feign Death. It's cheaper. Note that there is a random hard limit on how many ingots can actually drop per week for you. It appears to be from 4-6, depending on the week. Once that (random) number of ingots drop, no more will drop for that raid. You need to start a fresh raid (on another character or in another week) to get more ingots.

You'll be going to Tanaris a lot. Take the portal in the Violet Citadel (in Dalaran) to the Caverns of Time.

To get attuned to Blackwing Lair, kill the Scarshield Quartermaster, activate his quest item, clear Upper Blackrock Spire, then click on the orb behind the final boss. There is also a portal directly to the raid instance inside of UBRS, a little after killing Rend Blackhand. Getting attuned is recommended, though. Once you're attuned, you can get in by clicking on the orb down the hall from the port to Blackrock Spire.

Your rewards will be a bunch of useless but pretty level 60 epics, a ring that gives you water breathing, a useless (but extremely rare) recipe, a couple books to read, a useless white item, a feat of strength (at 4.0.3a), and some of the best lore in the game.

Comentario de blowtorch

After much pain in getting the Elementium Ingots to drop, I finally completed this today. This quest chain is simply awesome and Blizzard really should add something similarly epic into the game some time.

Comentario de 603979

According to a blue post this feat will not give a title or a AQ mount that works outside AQ. Blue post is here.

Comentario de 323598

Same here. At last I've done it. :D

The achievement itself is not implemented into the game. Even "forcing" the achievement to appear (either by using the script to track it or by using the link above) does not work.

Btw. Completing the quest needs at least 2 weeks therefore it is no longer able to take it and complete it ever again since
17/11/2010.

The last moment at which it is possible to complete the quest in order to receive the achievement is 24/11/2010 at 2:58GMT (EU servers at least).

Comentario de 238445

So, few hours left. Everyone who was able to finish this chain: Congratz!

Comentario de Nikelia

This Feat of Strength along with the Shen'dralar are not active yet. They will probably come after the Cataclysm release or in a small patch before it.

Comentario de bladden

The thing is, the Shen'Dralar achievment weren't supposed to come now though, since blizzard said that they would add that in a later patch. However, this achievment have been on wowhead for quite some time, so I for one was Very confused when i didn't get it, before I checked the new comments. As of 3.0.3a, The Shattering, this achievment have yet to show itself.

Comentario de 526876

Looks like this achievement is now being awarded to those eligible as of 11/29. It suddenly appeared in my Feats of Strength this evening without any sort of achievement announcement.

Comentario de 713590

yea i also got my feat as well i am very pleased about it. even thou i never experienced the actual event. it was a very cool quest and had alot of good lore in it.

Comentario de 311081

Confirmed. The achievement randomly showed up today after a loading screen. No "ding" animation, just showed up in my log.

Comentario de 311081

Strange. I was awarded it, then re-logged. Now it is gone... On a side-note, I got WoW's 6th Anniversary.

I hope it shows up again 0.o

Comentario de Isiwien

If you know that you should have had it, and didn't get it while logging on: Simply enter any instance. RFC, UK or whatever. Just enter an instance and the achievement will pop up in your FoS list.

Comentario de artemis

In case you dont have recived this achivement, even do you meet the requirement for it.

Well just go into a dungeon (RFC, Hogger, Random dungeon etc)

Comentario de 711046

If you completed the chain till the step when you get the scepter and then stopped and didn't get to bong the gong (like i did), then, tough luck. You can't do it anymore even though the NPC is still next to the gong, he doesn't however give the quest anymore.
Even if its not Cata yet and Blizz announced they will remove the chain in Cata and not before, players are unable to pick up the quest and get their FoS.

Comentario de 376340

I took the chain all the way to the end until I could do absolutely no more with it, got the reward (some weapon) and sold it, thinking I'd be good (you get to keep the scepter, which *should* ideally trigger the FOS based off of how much work you put into making it). I haven't gotten the FOS, no matter how many times I run into the Stockade (lol). I'm thinking maybe it's because I sold the item? My husband had the item in his bank and got the FOS as soon as he logged in. If I'm told I'm SOL it'll be a giant slap in the face considering how much time goes into making the scepter. But no one said the game was fair.

/edit yep no feat, Blizzard claims I didn't finish the questline? Lesson is don't throw anything away. Ever. LOL.

Comentario de 696796

I've just seen that i got the achievment on armory. I didn't see it ingame. Yet.

Anyway, it would be cool from blizz to get the "name, of the Shifting Sands", or "name, Veteran of the Shifting Sands" ach. It sure was the best chain ever. Incredible story and lore.

Just an edit idea : Since the scepter was not useable and (i presume) was kept in many player's bank or inventory, it would be nice that it can be used for the title.

Comentario de LordVarbaro

I still dont have it, reported to a GM, he said i have to wait till cataclsym hits.

Comentario de 376340

^was also told I had to wait till Cata, then was told that no, I hadn't done the last quest (and with no weapon in my inventory to prove that I had...). I'd be curious to know if yours is glitching out too and supposedly you haven't done the final step as well. Just from the last few posts, seems there are plenty of us out there with useless scepters and no feats. /sigh.

Comentario de 376340

lol alatoth the SAME thing happened to me. I also have the Insane title. I'm hoping that they fix it so us with the scepter get the feat. I always joke to my friends that the things I bust my butt on in WoW Bilzz nerfs and the things I'm so close to I can taste they remove from the game. I spoke to a GM because I *did* the quest and they told me all I could do was go on the forums and complain. I'm disappointed, sure. But I *do* have faith they will fix it.

Comentario de ariboersma

Keep %^&*!ing to wow everyone! If they get enough complaints about credit for Treasure of the Timeless One being lost they will fix it. I am putting a post up on the Blizzard forums about this, the GM I had recommended this course of action to get enough ppl up in arms about it.

Comentario de 311937

I got the same problem, i made the scepter but didn;t know there is extra quest in silithus.....So i got the scepter in my bank and no achiev....

Comentario de Nigo22

i was there back when they opened and i must say that was the best wow day in my life all thoose players.. the quest chain !

i mean the gate was fill up with players and there was guards all over the place it was fantastic!

Comentario de Gulanga

*Updated*
For those that are interested in the questline but did not get the chance to experience it before Cataclysm took it away, I documented my experience and I'm slowly turning it into a video format.

Comentario de dantheman777

I don't think this should reward a title tbh, there was already a title avalible for doing it when it was current content, why exactly should doing a quest chain that is five years out of date and 20 levels below cap award an unobtainable title? I did this whole questchain... it was badass, the best questchain on wow for sure, but to say it was hard? The hardest part was getting the elementium ingots from BWL.

People really should learn to stop being so greedy and apreciate what they get, your reward for doing the questline... was getting to do the questline(about 2% of the player base have done it)the items you got doing said questline and the FoS blizzard was kind enough to add for you.

Edit: obviously going to be downrated by Scepter holders who think they deserve a title, feel free :D

Comentario de raistlyn

I just wish they would make the Scepter something you could equip instead of something just sitting in your bags. Although the Ravencrest sword is awesome, there are (unfortunately) other ways to get the same model in game, and so is not unique. If there is not going to be a title like mentioned above, "Veteran of the Shifting Sands," they should at least make this unique and equipable for all classes. Just as a vanity item, but it's better than sitting around and hoping someone is bored enough to check your Feats of Strength.

Comentario de Furydeath

even if someone else ended up with the mount

Too bad that's not true for my server seeing how we never even had the event GG blizz.

Comentario de hevgirl

it's my opinion that they make a title for the Veterano del Mar de Dunas as well,

considering the Señor Escarabajo / numbers are dwindling...
(and the Veteran achieve is unobtainable with the Cataclysm revamp)

Comentario de Tiralyon

New news about Scarab Lords getting a new updated mount. For legitimate Scarab Lords that's good news and great to hear that Blizzard remembers us old timers.

Us Veterans are still waiting for our 'of The Shifting Sands' titles though.

Comentario de hevgirl

Tanque de guerra qiraji negro has now been revamped with a high-res model

...but of course Veterano del Mar de Dunas holders still get jack

Comentario de Adriyel

I'm in complete agreement with all the other posters here on this. I title would be nice and is well deserved. I did this chain at level 60, in 2005, on an RP server (Thorium Brotherhood) with barely anyone around to help. Brutal wouldn't even come close to describing the difficulty level. And that bug grind? Ugh. But at the same time, this adventure was one of the most magical things I've done in this game, in all these twenty years, or I wouldn't have done it. What was my reward? I got a Espada rúnica de los rojos (which I can't use) and a long-forgotten epic recipe I'll never cook again. The only thing I still have to show for all that effort is this Destilador ectoplásmico, a dusty Diario de Weavil and and old beat up scepter taking up three slots in the bank. C'mon devs. Title, please. You knew how hard this was in the world of gaming. If you won't title us, can you at least tell us why?
