Achievements

Achievement screen (GUI), 2 of 64 general achievements already earned

There are a great many things to see and do in Middle-earth on your adventures. Along with all the new features of the Mod comes a new, more organized, and more stable achievement system to better record your many accomplishments.

Achievements button or press 'L' & 'A'

To access the achievement list, open the Middle-earth menu by pressing 'L'. Then use the achievements button to get to the list, or press 'A'. Pressing 'L' again at any time will bring you back to the main menu.

On the achievement screen, achievements which have been earned are lit up with red check marks beside them, while the achievements that have not yet been earned are darkened. If achievements can't be unlocked because of your current alignment, they will be removed from the list. That is why the total displayed for the categories and the grand total above the GUI will vary over time.

The arrows at the top of the screen are used to navigate between categories (the scroll bar there allows faster scrolling). The scroll bar to the right moves through the selected category's achievements. Above the GUI, you'll find the grand total including all categories and how many of them you already completed.

Achievement Notification

Achievement pop-up notification

Similar to vanilla Minecraft, there are two ways to know when you've earned an achievement. The first is a pop-up notification on the upper right corner of the screen. The second is a notification in the chat box, which can be seen by other players as well.

Special Features[]

The new achievement system differs from the vanilla system in a number of ways.

  • Storage: Achievements are stored per-world, and they never reset. Say goodbye to the annoyances of ruining your legitimate survival worlds by earning the achievements on a creative world, and of seeing the 'Taking Inventory' prompt over and over again!
  • Influence of alignment: With alignment being such a key feature in the Mod, a lot of the Middle-earth achievements depend on it. Some achievements can be earned only by good players, some only by evil players, and some are available to both sides - although they may be easier to obtain for a certain alignment. At first all achievements will be shown, but once you raise or lower your alignment you will only be able to see the achievements appropriate to that side.
  • Influence of pledges: Ranks related to a certain faction can only be accessed up to +100.0 alignment. All higher ranks are only achievable if you pledge allegiance to this faction.
  • Categories: Due to the amount of new achievements, the vanilla 'branching' display system has been thrown out in favour of a new more easily navigable category-based system. There are several categories including a 'General' category as well as a category for each major region of Middle-earth (some minor biomes are combined into one large region, such as 'Rhovanion'). Each achievement belongs to a single category.
  • Progress display: The achievement screen also displays progress counts once you have reached either +1 or -1 alignment. At the top of the screen, your progress for all achievements in all categories is shown. Each category also has an individual progress count. These progress counts only take into account achievements your player is able to earn, not achievements from the opposite alignment side.

Rewards[]

Need an incentive to start collecting achievements? Then it might interest you to know that some shields can only be unlocked if the player earns a certain minimum amount of achievements. A bronze adventurer's shield requires 25 completed achievements, a silver adventurer's shield requires 50 achievements, a gold adventurer's shield requires 100 achievements, and the rare mithril shield requires 200 achievements.

In addition, the earning of achievements also unlocks a greater number of custom waypoints available to the player.

Command[]

If you want to cheat, and have the necessary rights, you can change the achievement settings by using the following command:

/lotrAchievement give|remove <achievement> [player]

Gives or removes the specified achievement to/from yourself or another player. all may be used with remove to remove all achievements. all does not work with give. The player's name is optional. When no player is set, the command will affect yourself.

List of Achievements[]

The following is a list of all possible achievements and how to achieve them. They are organized by region, just like they are in the Mod.

Important: As mentioned above, the number of achievements shown on the screen varies with the alignment gained. So before removing entries from the following list, make sure that they have been removed from the Mod. Use the command /alignment set all 0 to check this. And even with alignment 0, some of the ranks' achievements will be suppressed.

The section headings below mostly show two or three numbers for the totals. The first is the count you get for 0 alignment, and the others are the numbers of additional ranks you can get after you are pledged to the related factions. Note that in this case, some of the other achievements (such as the "slayer" achievement) will be removed.

The total amount of achievements is 561 (at alignment 0, including 11 Utumno achievements) plus 106 (ranks after pledging), as of Update 35. This is completely theoretical because the player never can reach this, as some get removed, when you earn positive or negative alignment or pledge to a faction. Sadly, there's no achievement if you've gathered all possible achievements (something like 517 of 517).
