Achievements for Classes

I was thinking....what IF different classes had different achievements BASED on their class? :o
Like, for hunters, maybe there could be an achievement and it says, "Tame each of these Rare Spirit Beasts below." and then it lists them, and it rewards you with a title. I don't know what the other people might think, but I would enjoy it. :D

Interesting idea :) But this probably belongs in the WoW General forum, rather than Support, so I'll move it :)

There would be even more people hunting for spirit beasts if they did that o_o;

I think it would be an interesting idea. I still wish there were class specific quests. Nothing that was mandatory (well, maybe, if they could do them right) or had some OP reward at the end that made it too valuable no to do. Just something fun that helped teach the lore or purpose of a class. Class-based achievements could work well with those.

Problem with something like "tame the following spirit beasts" is that it already isn't a class achievement - there are a lot of hunters with no BM spec.

I know people have asked for class specific achieves before but it isn't so simple when you think about what each class does. What would a rogue do? Pick X number of boxes, pickpocket x number of mobs? Kill certain special mobs while interrupting or stunning every cast? While the second one would be interesting and beneficial in terms of raiding or instances I don't know how fun it would actually be.

Pickpocketing seems like a good fit for a rogue. Hunter could tame X number of rare beasts, to untie it from spec.

Also, I think it would rather be a FoS than an achievement, since not everyone can do those.
