Another new feature for guilds in Cataclysm is Guild Achievements. These achievements are a lot like character achievements, except they require the collective effort of your guild to accomplish. Some of these achievements are needed to unlock guild rewards while others are just there for bragging rights.
What Counts as a Guild Group
Many of these achievements must be completed while in a Guild Group. A guild group is one in which the majority of the players are members of the guild. Here is the minimum number of guild members to form a guild group for each type of content:
- Arenas: the entire team
- Dungeons: 3
- Rated Battlegrounds: 8
- 10-player Raids: 8
- 25-player Raids: 20
- 20-player Raids: 8
- 40-player Raids: 10
When you are in a Guild Group, you will see your guild’s logo on the minimap while you’re inside an instance.
Guild Achievements in Cataclysm Classic
Below are all of the guild achievements that can be obtained in Cataclysm Classic along with any rewards they unlock and the number of guild achievement points they grant.
Achievements marked with an asterisk (*) won’t be visible in your UI until the achievement directly above is completed.
General
This category includes achievements for leveling characters of different races and classes. The culmination of these is Stay Classy/ Stay Classy, which require you to have a level 85 character of every Race/Class Combination to unlock your 8th guild vault tab. That means 45 different characters for Alliance and 46 for Horde. Many guilds will opt to tip level 85 characters to join the guild just long enough to unlock the achievements.

Player vs. Player
These are general PvP achievements that your guild will gradually check off if you do a lot of PvP. The Slayer series of achievements requires killing a character of every possible race/class combination. You may find that it takes a while to check off some of those due to the rarity of some combinations.

Battlegrounds
Note that with the exception of 5-Cap Crew, all of these achievements require rated battlegrounds to complete. At least 8 of the team’s 10 members will need to be guild members for the achievements that require a guild group. Each of the titles that are listed are earned progressively by winning rated battlegrounds.
