Any Achievement Hunters here?


I think that the hardest is the Puzzle Addict Achievement!
There are no shortcuts here: you have to correctly solve 10000 puzzles!

There are several other bot related achievements that were Christmas themed. Idk if those will be possible again. Other than that, maybe Castle Victory, Killer King etc. Pretty rare to get those opportunities. Things like puzzles, or points accumulation are time consuming rather than hard I'd say.


Hello, i started hunting achievements as well and i would say that the higher rating ones are harder
Furthermore, I am also building an achievement guide, you can check it here: https://www.chess.com/blog/Nightwish85/achievements-guide
Still needs a lot of work, but i will have them all explained eventually, in hope it will help others hunt achievements too!

yeah... but the bots are taken offline. There are no live bots anymore since a couple of weeks

Hi @Nightwish85!
I have read your guide. It is really nice that you have categorized them!
My suggestion would be to rename some of the items in your guide:
- those which record some threshold achieved could have a suffix N or the actual numbers which can be achieved. For example Bullet N or Bullet 1, 5, 10, 25, 100, 1000, 10000 (Those numbers are not always the same, e.g. Speed Solver 10+, 20+, 30+, 40+, 50+)
- those which record a rating achieved could have a suffix R or the maximal; ratings which can be achieved
You could rearrange them inside your categories to match the order in which they are presented by Chess.com. Your guide would be easier to follow!
As far as I know, there are 136 Achievements, but in your guide, I have counted only 135 of them. After a long search, I found that the Dailychess960 R (for the achieved rating in Daily Chess960 games) is missing from your guide. Strangely enough, there is not Dailychess960 N for the number of those games played...
Except for the five Christmas Achievements, the most complete collection is owned by Phiro:

I try to collect all those who have 115 or more Achievements and I maintain an updated list here:

Hello @kAtalan_csaT
Thanks a lot for your reply!
Regarding the first point, the achievements that record some threshold i just placed them with their first number (the first achiev), wasn't decided yet which way would be better. Initially i wanted to specify details within each page dedicated to each achievement. I will think about a format that should be easier to understand. I like your suggestion tho.
It took me a while to arrange them inside the categories, but some of them are mixed up in the chess.com page and to be honest i wanted to have a certain consistency in my guide. I will most likely make some adjustments here and there in the near future, but at the moment i am focused more on creating the pages for each achievement. Takes a lot of time and effort
In regards to the missing achievement, you are right! Not sure how that one eluded me, will fix it. Thanks a lot for this find and the time you invested!
You are right, Phiro has a great collection, cheers for the info! I had other profiles that i was working with, but the one you suggested is the best!
I appreciate your reply very much, it was helpful!
