Achievements
An achievement in WarLight is a task or accomplishment that players can unlock. Players can earning achievements for doing various things throughout the game.
Achievements also award points. Achievements award points based on their difficulty – the more difficult the achievement, the more points you'll get for unlocking it.
All achievements earned are displayed on player's profiles.
There are no achievements that require a membership to get, so free players can still complete every achievement if they desire to.
Achievement List
The full list of achievements has not yet been revealed! The only way to discover what achievements exist is by stumbling into them or checking other player's profiles.
Trophies
Achievements are considered things that any player could just go out and do. Trophies, on the other hand, are for tasks that are rare, very difficult, or special in some way. For example, there’s a trophy for achieving rank #1 on the 1v1 Ladder, and another for playing WarLight while it was beta. Trophies are intended to be rare, and most players will probably never get one.
Unlike achievements, trophies don’t actually award points themselves, but they’re displayed prominently on player’s profiles. (Ranking #1 on the 1v1 Ladder would award plenty of points from the ladder, just not from the trophy itself.)
