What are Keystone achievements
There are five milestones that M+ runners strive for: The War Within Keystone Explorer, Keystone Conqueror, Keystone Master, Keystone Hero, and Keystone Legend. These achievement tiers not only serve as benchmarks for player accomplishments, but also unlock exclusive prizes available solely during the respective season. The War Within expansion also has an Enterprising Hero: The War Within Season Two achievement for the most purposeful players.
All of these achievements are time-limited, and if you don’t get them during Season 2, they will be forever inaccessible to you. However, the most enticing rewards and unique accomplishments lie in conquering the Keystone Master (KSM), Keystone Hero (KSH), and new Keystone Legend (KSL). And so, our attention today is centered on them.
Keystone Master achievement
Keystone Master in World of Warcraft is earned by achieving a Mythic+ rating of at least 2000. You must successfully navigate challenging dungeons within set time limits, facing increasingly difficult enemies and mechanics. Collaboration within a dedicated and coordinated group is often essential to reaching this milestone.
Keystone Hero achievement
To get the Keystone Hero in World of Warcraft, you must attain a Mythic+ rating of at least 2500, marking a significant step beyond the Keystone Master milestone. Recognized as the pinnacle of Mythic+ accomplishments, the journey is challenging, but for those seeking assistance, Mythic Plus boost is your most reliable option:
Keystone Legend achievement
Keystone Legend achievement is a new level of conquering Mythic+ dungeons that was added in TWW Season 2. After reaching at least 3000 M+ rating, you will get Enterprising Shreddertank mount.
How to get Season 2 Keystone achievements
Getting Keystone Master and Keystone Hero achievements follows a similar process. The difference is in the amount of points you need. Getting a necessary score sounds not too hard, but if you try to go and get it as it is, you may realize it’s easier said than done.
To get the desired Keystone achievement, first, we need to understand how Mythic rating works. Just like in previous expansions, starting from Key Level 2, each M+ dungeon of the season has an affix. Affix is a special condition that applies to particular dungeon elements, making the run a lot more challenging than usual. As the score-counting principal has changed in TWW, there’s only one score per dungeon, and Tyrannical and Fortified can both appear on the same keystone.
Two main things that affect your score are the keystone level and time limit. Based on all the information above, we have made the following guidelines that will keep you on track to seasonal achievement:
- Make sure to clear every dungeon of Season 2. Clearing any of them for the first time will considerably boost your score.
- Do a higher Mythic dungeon Keystone level. The harder the dungeon you complete, the higher the final score.
- Make it fast. More time left on the clock means more points in the end.
For Keystone Master you should hit the 2000 mark after you complete every Season 1 dungeon with a timed +7, or depleted +8 on average. This might not be easy in PUG groups, so you can choose another approach to achieve the required score. For example, completing all dungeons for 6+ or 6++ and adding a few more dungeons for 7+ will still give you a 2000+ score. Or if you had a few good runs of 7++ or better, it can save you time, letting you only complete a few more 6+, 5+, and even 4+. This means you can achieve the desired mark with lower-tier keystones if you hardly succeed in them.
Keystone Hero will take a bit more time and effort because you will have to make a big push toward that 2500 mark. Although you can mix and match dungeons to your liking, the easiest way to get Keystone Hero is by completing +10 Mythic+ dungeons in time. On average, you will need ~6-7+ completed runs, and a few lower-tier will be left to achieve the required score. This is where the challenge begins. To tackle harder dungeons and meet the time limit, you need a highly coordinated group of players who know what they are doing.
Keystone Legend is a real challenge for most WoW players and requires a 3000 M+ score to achieve. To hit this mark, you have to get somewhere around 375 scores at every M+ dungeon. A timed +10 key grants approximately 325 scores for a dungeon, meaning you have to complete all Mythic Keystone dungeons at +12-13 level.
If you are unfamiliar with M+ and want to know more about it, feel free to check our The War Within Mythic plus guide for newbies. We also have specific guides for every Mythic Plus dungeon for you to check. And if you have trouble finding such individuals, we at WowVendor have a solution to assist you. Our The War Within Mythic Boost is designed to help you navigate through any desired dungeon in no time while ensuring complete security for your account.
Tips and tricks
We have some extra tips and tricks to help you on your path to KSM and KSH achievement.
It is a well-known fact that some specializations perform way better than others in a Mythic dungeon environment. Playing them means you can have an easier time finding groups and going through dungeons themselves. Check our M+ tier lists below and consider bringing the best specs to your M+ runs.
Achievement rewards
Upon completing The War Within Keystone Master: Season Two, you will get Crimson Shreddertank mount. This is a Goblin Engineering inspired crawling vehicle that will probably become a great addition for your collection.
Upon reaching the 2000 score mark, you will also get The War Within Season 2: Master Blaster
achievement, which will grant you Crystallized Essence of Kaja’mite, which grants extra Catalyst charge.
Pushing your rating even further and reaching 3000 M+ score rewards you with The War Within Keystone Legend: Season Two achievement and Enterprising Shreddertank mount. Your Mythic Keystones will also no longer deplete as they used to.
Reaching such high rankings also means you get all the related achievements, earning you “the Enterprising” title from The War Within Keystone Conqueror: Season Two achievement.
Additionally, every M+10 instance you complete within the time limit will also grant you Keystone Hero achievement for this specific dungeon (e.g., Keystone Hero: Operation: Mechagon – Workshop
upon completing M+10 Operation: Mechagon Workshop). Such achievements provide you with the ability to teleport to this specific dungeon. This makes your M+ grouping much easier, as you don’t have to make a long way to Meeting Stone. Since The War Within made this mechanic account-wide, your alts will also have this quality-of-life improvement.
And this is a wrap for our guide. We hope it was of use to you. Happy gaming!
Comments
Thanks for the information but with out a mythic keystone how do you even get one.
I looked at joining a group for mythic zero as in my mind that is a start but there are not any in the four times I have looked.
Does that mean I need to start a group myself?
Yes, to obtain a keystone, you need to complete one M0 dungeon. Right now, we are at the end of Mythic Plus Season 3, so fewer people are creating M0 groups in the looking-for-group tool. It’s actually faster to create a group by yourself. If you don’t have any experience, just inform the group members, and they will help you navigate through it.
