Easiest way to get this one is to join a storm farm group for one storm, get your 200, leave and head to the next storm, rinse and repeat until you have all 4 storms of the 2 hour time limit. Then do it again when you get the achievement. Should only take four rotations (or 1-2 days depending on sleep schedule) to finish the achievement. Also be sure to kill all rares you see for the achievement Fuga tempestosa

Commento di ShurqElalle

This is a pretty frustrating achievement. Essentially you have to do the micro achievements in each zone, which are to kill 200 elemental infused mobs for each elemental invasion. My two "geared" alts are much higher Il than this armor is useful for, but the transmog is awesome. I definitely do not mind farming them, and I have already unlocked two full sets, the pets, mount, some weapons, etc.

Only today I have learned that the meta achievements don't stack. I was going to do mail armor in one zone, cloth another, leather another, and plate the last and then farm one of the "easier" areas to buy whatever pieces I still needed. It took me about 4,5 hours of farming to do all the achievement for each element in one zone.

It was incredibly frustrating to learn that the achievement must be fully completed on one character despite consisting of smaller micro achievements. What's worse is there is no reward itself for the achievement, and like, it would be so much more player friendly if the achievement did not even exist because there are already tangible reasons to farm the assaults: armor/weapon upgrades, pets, mount, transmog, etc.. To add the most arbitrary "join a raid and tag as much as you can for 12 hours split over 16 different times" on top of farming for the stuff we actually want WITHOUT letting you use 4 different characters to farm the transmogs is beyond dumb.

It just feels like a massive waste of time for no reason. I know I do not have to do the achievements, and I am not going to now, and it's not that I want "more rewards", but rather, the psychological pleasure of knowing that the people who design content understand the overlaps that are present and use this information to implement said content.

Commento di ReciTerokkar

'Storm Chaser' title would be a nice reward as this achievement is quite a farm, requiring you to kill 3200 mobs during specific events in specific zones.

Commento di Miked1212

You have to do it all on one Character, i repeat ONE Character, not account

Blizzard pls make the progression account-wide

Commento di PinkWolf

Probably the most useless achievement in Dragonflight.

Commento di Qoko

Bit of a shame Blizzard wasn't more clear in their approach to zone Storms in 10.0.7: in .5 I didn't have a lot of time to farm this nor was I particularly interested given there wasn't much to get from Overflow, no tokens and/or upgrade items. Now, only one Storm spawns at a time. I'm not really sure why this was changed, but this just turns it into a 1/16 gamble whether the right zone and element combination is up... besides the fact that it has to be done on one character and just killing 200 mobs is incredibly boring: you're essentially looking for a raid group or to find non-elites to zerg relatively fast. If you start it now you need at least 48 hours (16 cycles), but it's more likely closer to a week, as zone/storm combinations are random and repeats will occur.

Do you have to do it? No, but once you start you're automatically pulled towards finishing a side achievement whenever a combination is up you still need. I highly recommend combining this with the Adunanza di Cobalto, Manufatti dei Mezzorsi Liberati and/or Granulo di Magma farms whenever a Storm is up in the affected areas.

I have some experience in farming this now, so some pointers per subzone that I've farmed in, most convenient from top to bottom (will update as I go):

Waking Shores

Obsidian Citadel: not easy to farm, but not terrible due to player traffic and allows double dipping Granulo di Magma and obsidian keys!
Slagmire: quite a few non-elite elementals to kill and quite easy to find a group for, but not as convenient to navigate.
Scalecracker Keep: pretty annoying, not a lot of affected mobs. The indoor hut with Gragza la Spezzadraghi works quite well though.

Ohn'ahran Plains

Nokhudon Hold: packed with elites, not terribly easy to solo but quite easy to zerg in a raid. Regardless, it's the sole zone in the Plains.

Azure Span

Cobalt Assembly: amazing! The buffs help speed this up and you can farm the Adunanza di Cobalto simultaneously.
Imbu: not as efficient as the Assembly, but quite packed and you get Manufatti dei Mezzorsi Liberati if you haven't finished that yet.
Brackenhide: ugh. The beach area is probably the best to zerg, but it's a drag. You can get Decadimento Stimolante, but meh.

Thal'draszus

Tyrhold: pretty relaxed, there are a lot of 'small mobs + one elite' packs on the lower levels. Regardless, it's the sole zone in Thal'draszus.

Commento di milyssa

Beware: you have to do every single part of this on ONE character or it won't count.

Commento di Reddott

Is there a set rotation for these?

Commento di julisamay

They definitely should have made 'Storm Chaser' a title as a reward for this achievement

Commento di Morisdread

Rotation: The Azure Span > The Azure Span > The Azure Span > The Azure Span > The Azure Span > The Azure Span > The Azure Span > The Waking Shores > The Azure Span > The Azure Span > The Azure Span > Thaldraszus (the one you already have) > The Azure Span > The Azure Span > The Azure Span > The Azure Span > The Waking Shores > The Waking Shores (its the same type as the previous one) > The Azure Span > The Azure Span > Ohn'ahran Plains (FINALLY, oh wait, its the one you already have.) ................ This game.

Commento di Tdminial

So not only do you have to check every three hours which is active - so, effectively I get 3-4 tries a day if I'm lucky - but you have to actually log into the game because for some reason wowhead is no longer reliable in telling you which storm is active. Well, for EU at least, they seem to update the NA one all the time

Commento di Cima

I'm only missing two Snowstorms at this point and I haven't seen one pop up in a while. Either the rotation is effed up or I'm just incredibly unlucky

Commento di NokoFace

The fact that this of all things has no rotation is, quite frankly, baffling. Things that don't need rotations have rotations, but things like this that could greatly benefit from one, don't? Make it make sense.

Sidenote but it being only ONE up every three hours is ridiculous. One should be up in every zone and rotate. Perfect opportunity to make one of each element to be up at a time.

Commento di Sharkest

Blizzard Employee: Lets make it so the Elemental Storm has a 80% chance to spawn in Azure Span so these achievements cannot be completed for those who didn't do it early in the xpack.
Blizzard Dev: You're getting PROMOTED!

Commento di zTrikki

azure span sure is dangerous this time of year

Commento di TTempest

The more I'm looking at this achievement, the more I'm thinking that this is actually just crazy. The worst possible one from the bunch. It beats dirt farming for treasure maps. It beats scroll farming in the Forbidden Reach. Here's the breakdown:

There are 4 different zones that can spawn storms in the Dragon Isles. There are 4 different elements that a storm could take. If you were after, say, a sandstorm in Thaldraszus, you'd assume that this would be a 1/16 chance of seeing it every single time that a storm spawns. It would make sense, right? But that's just not the case.

Thaldraszus has one possible location a storm can spawn. The Ohn'ahran Plains has one possible location a storm can spawn. The Waking Shores has two possible spawn locations. And The Azure Span, dear reader, has three. What happens is that the game decides every three hours to spawn an elemental storm in a zone, but it does not choose between the zones itself. It chooses between the spawn locations of every zone. So, instead of each zone having a 25% chance of getting an elemental storm each cycle, there is a 14% chance for a storm to spawn in Thaldraszus, a 14% chance for a storm to spawn in Ohn'ahran Plains, a 28% chance for a storm to spawn in the Waking Shores, and a 42% chance for a storm to spawn in the Azure Span. That is why it seems every storm shows up in The Azure Span. It's completely skewed in favor towards it.

If you were after a sandstorm in Thaldraszus, like I said before, you would first have to get lucky enough to have Thaldraszus chosen as the elemental storm zone (1/7 chance), then you'd have to also have it be the element that you need (1/4). Together, this is a 3% chance. A 3% chance every time that a storm appears. Keep in mind that storms show up once every three hours and that the average person isn't going to see more than two or three of these per day. I know that this is part of the no-life meta achievement, but this is completely ridiculous even for no-life standards.

The achievement used to be much easier to do: two storms used to be up at a time until Blizzard reduced this to only one in 10.0.7, and the Temporal Conflux location in Thaldraszus used to be a spawn location before it was removed to add in the Primalist Future world event. Expect Blizzard to do something to alleviate either the rotation or frequency for this like they did with the "Things To Do When You're Dead" achievement for the Shadowlands meta.

Commento di Darkdefender

In addition to all other annoyances about the storms - the @#$%ing mobs are so goddamn annoying beyond measure. Did you want to cast something? STUN! Do you want to move? Well, how about you stay immobile for a few seconds while we cast our 3 stuns? You'd like to do literally anything? I'm sorry I can't hear you over the sound of *CHAINSTUNNING*!

So so fun

Commento di stoneshank

copy pasting my comment from my original post at the ohna'ran plains ach, here too:

So I did the last 50 kills of the ohn'ara plains storm ach but at cobalt assembly.

I stood at 84.18 79.60 in ohn'ara plains, which is a technicality as you are actually in cobalt assembly. I tagged mobs with my pet and stood there.
Mobs were either pulled back to me by me moving pet or others killed it , them doing their worldquest.
So this way i managed to turn a Azure plains storm into a Ohn'ara storm. I had to be out on that little cliff though when they died (or if you jump off the balcony so you switch to ohn'ara.

Commento di Droel

Rename this achievement ˝Azure Span chaser˝. When u open up DF map to see where storm is always click Azure Span first and check, 90% of the storms are there, than if its not pray its one of other total random zones and is the type that you need.

Commento di Deckers

8 Storms a day, 16 combinations needed for the achievement, so it makes sense that we can get this over a few days of evenly spread RNG, right?

Lol, lmao even

It seems that spawns will randomly pick from all available locations, rather than by zone then by location, so Span and Shores get almost all of the storm spawns. I'm really hoping that Blizz get their act together with this one. Grinding and waiting for dailies/weeklies is one thing, but a totally random and unpredictable series of events that you're going to miss most of anyway if you have a job or any social life just makes this unachievable in the current state.

Commento di Gweedleas

This achievement is actually laughable. 3 Storms 11AM, 2PM and 5PM in OCE on Frostmourne. All in the waking shore and all SANDSTORM. Great RNG blizzard.

Commento di sillysauce

It was nice having a few rounds of 2 storms at a time today, but it looks like it's already back down to 1 storm at a time.

EDIT: It appears a 2nd storm did spawn, but the icon wasn't showing on the map. Since the storm is question is at the Temporal Conflux, which hasn't been a possible spawn location since the number of active storms was nerfed, I'm guessing there are still a few bugs with it correctly displaying the storm on the map. Logging out then back in seems to have fixed it and the map now correctly shows the storm.

Commento di Varn

Oh great, now we don't just have one storm yet a gain, we have no storms at all on Dalaran at 11.07pm

Commento di Ekuj

No Storms Tarren-Mill 1800-2000 ST EU

Commento di Herrgarden

No storm 8pm Server time (Kazzak EU)

Commento di Robinhewd

From what I've seen recently, there's only been one Storm active at a time. Should be two unless there's a bug or that changed when I wasn't looking.

Commento di MorgannaED

No storms for the last 4 hours today.

Commento di Whulle

Finished off the Tempeste di Fulmini a Thaldraszus requirement for this today, and got the Nella tempesta achievement done :)

Commento di octnoir

This is a guide for 10.2.6 and 10.2.7 because of two factors:

1. Because of the Un mondo risvegliato achievement that you'll find plenty of traffic in the area and I suspect it will drop off pretty quickly with War Within's release onwards.

2. 11.0.1 Pre-Patch onwards will deliver fully account-wide achievements, which means you can sync it across alts.

This strategy is predicated on having traffic, mobs that aren't being outright one-shot by other players and working with the limitations of non-account-wide achievements.

1. You want to get a namplate addon like Plater to very clearly see the Infuso d'Elementale on mobs. You'll notice some neutral mobs will have this buff too. Annoyingly some of the elementals that spawn only during a Primal Storm do not count and can significantly 'gunk' up a zone (Primal Storm in the Obsidian Citadel area come to mind).

2. You want to be a part of a 5 man group but not a raid group. With a raid group you'll have to tag manually everything. With a 5 man you share tags.

3. As a party spread out throughout the Primal Storm area and secure as many 'tags' as possible. In high traffic areas you don't have to worry about solo killing every mob, you can have other people not in your group do it for you. If you are clumped up, you reduce your tags and hence kills for this achievement, making the grind take longer.

4. You can 'Tag and Dash'. If you tag a mob, but get 100+ yards out without force dropping combat via Morte Apparente, Invisibilità or Fondersi nelle Ombre, you still keep the tag.

5. Optional: Because of some of this achievement's account-wide features (but not all until War Within) (different alts can contribute to part of this meta, but can't share credit on the individual kill achievement), I'd recommend using an alt to do some of these grinds. Someone that can easily tag from ranged, maybe has survivability (like a tank) (ideally a Druid since they can fly out of combat). That alt can earn some beneficial items like the annoyingly soulbound Conoscenza Proibita Inutilizzata which can be used to get Vault of the Incarnates Tier Set appearances. You can also level a low level alt (a 60+) and still grab the achievement, or if you are extremely daring a sub 60 that happened to get lost in the Dragon Isles.

Commento di r1dd3l

disappointed by fishing lunkers, by forbidden reach treasures by scrolls but this is by far the worst one
the roation is just awful

Commento di Golgothga

The rotation is a joke, yesterday it was mainly waking shore. And fire or thunder. Definitely needs some semblance of order bringing to it.

Commento di Sarthorius

THALDRASZUS...

Commento di Kalzz

HOOORYYY SHIIIIET (Jonathan Joestar voice) They actually brought back 2 storms per rotation, finally!

Commento di ivikatasha

I am glad there is 2 storms up at a time now but why do firestorms seem to be so rare?

Commento di roberte1342

Four weeks checking every 3 hours that I am awake and no Fire Storm in Thaldraszus. Does this particular storm show up somewhere other than Tyrhold? Literally the only thing needed for the World Awoken achievement.

Commento di Sarthorius

Achievements like this are the kind of things that SHOULD be in a rotation. By making it so, people could know WHEN to log in to do what they needed, and not lose unnecessary sleeping time, as I did, for example, to finish ONE Meta.

I even saw Thaldraszus Fire Storm this week, and I needed it, but was so tired, and it did spawn in an awkward time (well past midnight) that I thought better to go sleep instead of collapsing.

They have the tools, the TEAMS (since they already have at least 3 teams working on the game, one for next expansion, and at least 2 on current, one for next patches and another on fixes), the knowledge, and they HAVE fixed rotation on things in the past (see other expansion's invasions).

If it were on my hands:

Keep 2 always active
Make fixed rotations between two zones: Waking Shores/Azure Span and Ohn'aran Plains/Thaldraszus

This way, always a Waking Shores/Azure Span active and always Ohn'aran Plains/Thaldraszus active.

Commento di Kelticfox

A random thought I had whilst waiting for a Sandstorm on the Ohn'ahran Plains:
So the Primalist Forces keep fighting in the Azure Span but every so often they like to head North and fight in the Waking Shores, bypassing the Plains and Thaldraszus, because...

"No one will expect us to go to the Waking Shores and ignore the plains and the mountains..... *insert evil cackle*....."

That's a lot of walking for an hour!

Commento di slug908

I got sucked into this achievement because I was killing rares during storms trying to get a recipe to drop and wanted to know why it was always a war crime in progress with other players. Came here because I only have 50% of one storm left to go. Since the top comment is from 2019 I asked gpt4 to summarize this thread and suggest a strategy. Finding a discord channel where people post storms that are up is good advice:

ChatGPT
These comments provide a vivid picture of players' frustrations and experiences with the "Storm Chaser" achievement in the game World of Warcraft. Players express a range of emotions, from annoyance to humor, over the mechanics of elemental storms required for the achievement. The achievement's challenge lies in its reliance on RNG (Random Number Generator), where players must be at specific locations during elemental storms to progress. The comments highlight issues such as the unequal distribution of storms across zones, the infrequency of certain storm types, and the changes to storm mechanics in different patches, which significantly affect players' ability to complete the achievement efficiently. Many players share tips and strategies for farming the storms, but there's a consistent theme of dissatisfaction with how the game handles this particular achievement, suggesting a need for better rotation or frequency management by the game developers.

User
I am almost done with this achievement and have one storm left which is a Thunderstorm in the Azure Span and I'm working on a strategy for logging into the game at the right times when that storm is active in that zone

ChatGPT
That sounds like a smart approach, given how tricky it can be to catch the right storm at the right time! To increase your chances, you might want to keep an eye on community forums or Discord servers where players often share real-time updates on storm locations. Additionally, if the game or a fan site offers alerts or notifications for storm appearances, that could also help you log in just at the right moment.

Since you're focusing on Thunderstorms in the Azure Span, you might plan your game time around the typical refresh cycles, keeping in mind that storms update every three hours. Setting reminders or alarms for these intervals could help you check in efficiently without needing to stay logged in longer than necessary. Good luck catching that last storm!

Commento di EpicPants25682

Not sure what achievement is more frustrating this one or the Scroll Hunter one! 800 mobs to kill, 200 per type of storm and then to repeat that in each zone in the Dragon Isles is a bit much! And two storms going on at once, one in Thaldraszus and the other in the Azure Span atm. I tried to set up a custom group but players complained they couldn’t see me - I assume it is due to a phasing or sharding issue, i did state WM on, but a group sure would reduce the grind time if it works!
