Appears to be bugged.

I was present when two of the three towers fell and didn't receive the achievement. Neither did anyone around me or even the siege tank drivers.

I too was next to my siege that I drove there, and didn't get credit. Kinda buggy methinks.

Kommentar von Janetzky

I think your siege must get the "killing blow".

Kommentar von Neuf

Bugged. I had two seige engines that I drove on the tower and didnt get an achievement.

Kommentar von Trazgul

Your seige must get the killing blow.

If the way this achievement works is truly that you need to get the killing blow, the text of the achievement should be changed, because its misleading in its current form.

You don't need to be near the tower when it goes down.

Yes bugged. Haven't got it event my siege tank is the only one which attacked this towel :|

I think you may be right about getting the killing blow. Just got this achievement on my pally and both of the seige engines attacking that tower were placed there by me. No other seige engine was attacking that tower at the time so I definately had the killing blow.

Your tower plower is no match for my glower power!

I talked to a GM about this because I had the only surviving siege engine when the tower fell and still did not get the achievement. He confirmed that there is a problem with it but they were unsure what caused it and are looking into it.

Like others have said before me, your siege engine must get the killing blow. You can deploy siege mode and leave... you don't need to be at the tower to get the achievement so long as it's your siege engine that gets the killing blow. Of course this achievement can only be earned if your faction is attacking (not defending).

The strategy? You can take one engine for what will probably be a 50/50 chance (since someone will probably hop in the other one) at the achievement, OR you can go back and get the second siege engine before someone else does so you have a 100% chance at getting the achievement. I've found the best time to do this is in the morning or very late at night when the group is a bit smaller to give you the time you need to get that second siege engine. I've also found it best to accomplish this achievement on the East or West tower as the South tower is usually where all the siege engines end up after the other two towers are destroyed (smaller chance you'll get the killing blow), so be sure to queue early and get in the battle at the beginning. Also bear in mind that you can't even get in or use a siege engine until your faction has taken one of the three bases.

I just accomplished this achievement today. Below are some confirmations and strategies regarding this achievement.

Confirmation: You must get the killing blow (as others have mentioned). You do NOT need to be near the tower. I was literally halfway across Tol Barad when I got the achievement. As of 4.1, this is not bugged.

Strategy: In order to pilot a siege engine, you must have the Veteran buff, which is obtainable by getting an Honor Kill in Tol Barad during the current attacking session. (Note that defending players cannot attack the Siege Engine due to Thick Layer of Rust, an ability protecting the Sieges from being destroyed before they are even piloted.) Get Veteran as quickly as you can so that you may pilot a Siege Engine.

Quickly drive a Siege Engine up to a tower and deploy it. Sometimes the opposing team will earnestly try to destroy your deployed Siege, other times they will completely ignore it. Regardless, go pilot a second Siege Engine and deploy it against the same tower. (Siege Engines can usually be found in pairs, and players usually deploy Sieges to the nearest tower due to how slow they drive.)

This obviously is not the only strategy, just the one I used. You may be unlucky and have your Siege Engine destroyed by the opposing team, or another player may get the "killing blow" on the tower. But don't give up hope. Keep trying and this achievement will be yours!

Good luck!

I placed 3 siege engines today to south tower, someone placed the fourth and I didnt get it. Damn you rng.

Kommentar von Daylis

Range indeed doesn't seem to be an issue. I parked one at West Spire and went on my merry way. Sometime later i got the credit at Slagworks - full diagonal across the map.

Kommentar von ulletuss

It's still bugged it seems. Tried to get it today on my lock but didn't work even though I parked 1-2 sieges at each tower and also stayed close but didn't get credit :/

Kommentar von 911249

this achievement is STILL bugged today november the 14th 2011.. I placed not one, not two but friggin THREE siege engines near the tower and did NOT get the achievement.. its been ONE YEAR now and they still havent fixed this..

Will they ever?

I dont think so..

I think they will remove this achievement from the game..

Kommentar von 911249

placing a killing blow doesnt matter.. all the three engines were mine

and i still didnt get my achievement

Kommentar von thom1111

This is the only one I have left. Parked two at west tower. No achievement or meta. Bad enough I have to wait 4 hrs...now have to worry about rng too?

Kommentar von alexanderhess

This is obviously a bit of speculation due to having no insight into the actual mechanics, but could it be possible that the game forgets you being the owner of a siege engine once you enter the next?

Has anyone tried putting up just one siege engine at one tower and not entering any others to see if that counts (while getting the killing blow of course)?

My theory is that if you put for example 3 siege engines on one tower, the game forgets that the first two were yours, and one of the first two gets the killing blow while the game sees you as owner of the third…

Kommentar von kscott

The Achieve -if it ever truly was bugged- is no longer. I parked 2 Siege Vehicles at West and received credit for the achievement as soon as the tower went down.

Kommentar von Lightofday

This achievement isn't working for me. I parked one siege engine, it died. I parked another and that one destroyed the tower. No credit.

Any ideas?

Kommentar von AllureMG

Anyone how to do this solo if no one else is in TB? It always seems to be alliance controlled on my server; i'm always in there alone (maybe one other alli player) so how do i get veteran? How do i destroy the siege engines? Any help would be appreciated. Thx!

Kommentar von CyberBlade

Just did it. I was in a raid, and deployed 4 siege engines to southern tower. Noone else had any siege engines there. I was near the tower when it popped.

Kommentar von Andarist

You can actually solo this achievement if you got both a Horde and an Alliance toon.

If you want to do the achievement on your Alliance char, wait til Horde controls Tol Barad. If on your Horde char, wait til Alliance controls it. If you don't care, even better.
I will explain it in case you want to get the achievement on Alliance, of course you can simply swap otherwise.

1) Horde controls Tol Barad. So Horde defends, Alliance attacks.
2) Park your Alliance char near the northern bridge at the entrance.
3) Remove your gear at your Horde char and wait til the next match starts.
4) Horde will get ported to the center. Mount up and get to the bridge to engage the Alliance NPC guards there.
5) Alt + F4 while in combat.
6) Log in with your Alliance char and kill your Horde char who should still be in battle with the guard.
7) Your Alliance char can now mount siege engines! Grab them and deploy them on one tower. The more siege engines, the faster the tower will fall.

If you are unable to see your other char in battle, remember that war mode on / off gets you to different instances of Tol Barad. This can be useful to find an instance that is controlled by the faction of your wish, too.
