Outside the game, players may compare their accumulated achievement points with others on the leaderboards. In the game, players in the same guild or party may view each other's total achievement points, but with the exception of wearing a title, only the player can see their individual achievements obtained. Some achievements have prerequisites and will not progress until all tiers of the prerequisite achievement have been completed. A few achievements are repeatable, granting achievement points every time the progress bar is filled at which time its progress is reset. Other achievements serve as an umbrella achievement for certain achievements in the category, such as Learn to Kite. Meta achievements act as an umbrella achievement for the achievement category, requiring other achievements in the category to be completed. While most achievements are standard and require completing certain tasks in the game, others have special purposes or requirements. For these tiered achievements, the menu shows progression along the current tier, not the overall progression. Many achievements have multiple tiers and a notification will appear upon completing each tier. Upon obtaining an achievement, the player will be notified with a popup in the lower right corner of the UI stating the name, tier, description, and achievement points gained.

Most items rewarded from achievements are account bound.

Progression, achievement points, and titles are shared across all characters on an account.
