10 Deceptive Video Game Achievements That Sound Easy To Get (But Actually Aren't)

10. The Fishing Diplomat - World of Warcraft

World of Warcraft has a reputation for having some of the hardest, weirdest, and most infamous achievements in the world of MMORPGs. Things like killing powerful bosses, mass-completing quests, or racing with other players for number one spots in various competitions are a WoW achievement hunter's bread and butter.

For this reason, the achievement "The Fishing Diplomat" might seem like a nice break from all the insanity, as it only wants you to "fish something up in Orgrimmar and Stormwind." It doesn't even specify what sort of fish you need to catch, so surely it can't be that hard, right?

Well, seeing as Orgrimmar and Stormwindare the capital cities of the Horde and the Alliance, going on a simple fishing trip in either of them is about as safe as jumping into a volcano.

Whether you're Horde or Alliance, you'll have to somehow enter your enemies' headquarters, slip past unnoticed to the nearest body of water, and then hope you'll have just enough time to catch a fish before someone sees you and stabs you in the back.

Fishing Diplomat? Fishing Survivor is more like it!
