Achievement
An Achievement system will be included when Diablo 3 ships, noting how many monsters you kill, what types you encounter and the like. Titles and other effects can be received through killing especially many monsters, using specific items etc.
Achievements in Diablo III
Very few specifics are yet released about the system, but looking at WoW and StarCraft II, which already have Achievements in them, logical ones would be like:
- Achievement for defeating each boss on each difficulty.
- Killing 100 of a specific monster type.
- Killing 1000 of a specific monster type. (etc)
- Completing all normal quests in an Act.
- Completing 100 quests.
- Completing all available random quests in an Act.
- Getting a Massacre bonus of 10 monsters.
- Getting a Massacre bonus of 20 monsters. (etc)
- Killing a monster when you have less than 5% health left.
- Killing a monster when ally had less than 5% health left.
Each Achievement would be worth a certain amount of Achievement Points, which would be totalled on your Battle.net account, and be visible through an interface in the game. These could of course only be accumulated when playing online, so Blizzard can make sure you're not hacking the game etc.
When a player get certain important achievements, or get a certain number of Achievement Points they could unlock things like special titles, items (generally items that do not affect actual gameplay) or ways to change your appearance, or increasing the number of avatars you can choose from in the Battle.net chat rooms.
"Blizzard Level" Achievement
The Diablo 3 Achievement system will be an account-based system tied to a player's Blizzard Account ID, the purpose of which is to track achievements of all three major games: World of Warcraft, Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3. When combining all the games together, a score dubbed "Blizzard Level" is gained.
