What's your grindiest achievement?

[Doo Doo]

Whether you want to vent or alert others of achivements to avoid, or punish themselves with... here goes.
To start, one of mine would be Pixel Puzzles - UndeadZ.
Zombliterator - Kill 5000 Menu Zombies. [Move your mouse around in a circle in the menu minigame for 1.5+ hour, while pressing Q]

[Cthulhu Girl]

Ichi - Score 1000: Get a score of 1000 points.
The only way to do this is to play user made levels after you finish the game itself or have people play your levels. Took me more than 20 hours of in game time checking in every day to play a few levels for several weeks.

if you add up those weird (i think they are weird- mainly because i have a COMPLETED GAME where the only achievement i didn't unlock is the one you get FOR completing the game, and yet i didnt trigger it... it was a confirmed broken achieve at the time so i raged) -- those achievements for completing entire games / every other achievement on the list and the last achieve is what "100%s" you then the average playtime of some average games being 30+ hrs probably affects this in a meta way?

as for the specific question, there's a ton, i'll have to think about which one i hate most - lol

[Doo Doo]

Any game that requires you to replay it after beating in single player, then go through it co-op.

@Cthulhu Girl - That one's coming up in my backlog, thanks for the warning, sounds like a royal pain.
@ӾӾ - Time played shouldn't effect the achievement, unless it specifically says unlock everything/complete game AND play for at least #X hours.

[FFL2and3rocks]

The achievement in Agarest for maxing out all elemental skills.
Find an enemy that's immune to earth magic, then cast earth magic on it for a few hours. Repeat for other spells.
It's also my rarest achievement, 0.4%.

depends if you are having fun or not, i know for sure that if i am bored by trying to get an achievement i will be less likely to get it at all OR take longer to get it because i will be less efficient due to boredom and stuff.

stat grinding achieves based on (often rigged...) RNG like the Agarest ones come to mind as falling under this category...

[ladynadiad]

I doubt anything at all will beat Jack of All Trades in Final Fantasy 3.

That's the one to max out all jobs with all characters. You can gain a max of one job level per battle. Yeah, that was pretty awful and on average the grinding alone takes 100+ hours,

The Incredible Adventures of van Helsing - Carnage Incarnate
Killing lots of monsters will make you famous among the populace and infamous among the monsters. Kill 500000 enemies.

That was crazy. Even after 2 playthroughs you were still only at 35000 or something enemies. I think the grinding took over 50 hours.

[Stjarnadian]

Risen 2, some of the achievements were broken too (@ӾӾ [ sleepy dead ] i can understand you).
For example the Digger(dug up 50 treasures), Kleptomaniac(pick 100 locks), Big Game Hunter(kill 2000 Monsters) and a lot more.........
It's very annoying because to obtain them you have to play the game at least two times(is not that bad as it sounds as there are diffrent ways to play the game), but when you exit the game or it chrashes the counter is set to zero again, so I played it two times without turning it of, THEN IT CRASHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, so I used console commands to get them and yes I know thats some kind of cheating, and normaly I would never cheat to get achievements, but this time the game drove me crazy. If there is anyone else who want to get those achievements (its a common problem) I can recommend this guide (sadly I discoverd it after I looked up the console commands on other forums) : http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=179681304

EDIT: Muffin Knight: HoHoHo collect 50 muffins in SantaVille, it's the hardest level and I died several times at 49.

[Twistor]

I've got a bunch of those for you.

Go Home Dinosaurs! has Go Home Dinosaurs achievement to "send home" (defeat) 10000 dinosaurs. In principle it would take 3 playthroughs, though some levels were better than the rest for this purpose. This grindy part was only 10 hours or so.

Battle Ranch! has an achievement for harvesting 100000 fruit. This can be done with the in-game garden, like in Plants vs. Zombies and it can be automatized somewhat, buying a the collector thing every 30 minutes. Still, it took me almost 100 hours to do.

Tap Heroes has an achievement for killing one million monsters. It's a slow process, even optimizing by playing at a really low level and therefore being able to kill 2 monsters per second it still takes over 100 hours. For me it took 200 hours.

The last one is a work-in-progress for me:
OMG Zombies! needs to be completed 20 times. Every playthrough lasts 3-4 hours depending on your luck and whether your strategy is good for specific runs. I'm about half-way through with it. I expect it to take at least 100 hours, and I play it now only occasionally.

[The MulderFox]

Not really that difficult but it just takes a long time as the drop rate for the items needed is soooo very low.

Borderlands : What a party!

and speaking of grindy achievements, I don't know if I'll ever get clicker heroes or adventure capitalist(those moon achivements are so slow) done.

i'm not really a grind-kind-of-guy, i'm too lazy for that, but...

Ichi - 1000 points was a hell of agrind, gotta agree Cthulhu Girl, but i really enjoyed the game, though it took me about 20h as well

OMG Zombies! - 20 complete playthough, it takes time Twistor but again, i really really enjoy the game, so it doesn't feel like a grind at all, i play some and then just quit, longest session i can endure is about 40min, then i get really bored and call it a day. i'm pretty sure i'll miss it when i'll 100% it for good... i'm about to get the 15th prestige

Team Fortress 2 - all the 'win X games on Y map' with X from 137 to 142 for different maps... only grinded the funny maps for now, Foundry and Doomsday... can't really force myself to like the others, especially Snakewater :P

Warframe - all mastery-related ones: mastery is a score you increase by leveling to max level any piece of equipment, from suits (warframes of course) weapons, companions, companions' weapons, vehicles. you can do that only once per item/frame, so you have to get everything and max it out at least once. now it should be pointed out that many items are stuck between multiple RNG walls, or very costly clan research projects. took me almost 1000 hours to get to the max mastery rank available at the time i quit playing... now after almost 2 years the bar is only 3 or 4 notches higher. pretty sure support for the game will stop before there are enough items in the game to get to max rank (of course every rank costs much more that the previous one)

Homefront - get 200 kills with all weapons and vehicles and handheld drones and support weapons (about 6000 kills total), 100 wins in each game mode (there are 3) and a kill-streak of 10 with every gun... gonna take a few hundreds hours, i'm only about 40% in, not gonna make it

nah, clicker heroes is not that bad, problem is people just follow guides instead of thinking with their own head, and unfortunately the mainstream way to play the game is also the slowest for progression! actual grindy achievements like kill 1.5M monsters is just time consuming, but you can just leave the game running for 10 days straight without doing anything and you are good

and forget about advance cap, few things come to mind as broken as adventure cap these days. either the devs rebalance the whole thing or you'll never move from 50% completion

[Trash]

Metal Massacre on TF2 (Kill 1 MILLION robots). Create your own custom grind server and you're looking at about 2 weeks of off and on grinding (subtracting time for sleep) under ideal conditions. :/

Genocide for Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number
"Kill 50,000 enemies"

[A_Phosphorus_Invention]

Both original Q.U.B.E. and Q.U.B.E. DX with the 10,000 pick ups and 100,000 for steps. I just opened Youtube and would listen to Panic! at the Disco's "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out" or Lewis Black's "Black on Broadway" and run the level Hover Headway over and over and over.
