Got this title last night after a long long grind, very satisfying to finally complete something like that! According to Guildox, only 1% of players have it (by comparison, "the Insane", which was my previous preferred title, has been earned by 2.5% of players, and it's a fair grind in itself), and I'm really not surprised it's so rare! http://www.wowhead.com/achievement=7612 is the achievement; for anyone who doesn't do Archaeology much, in Pandaria you can dig up all kinds of artifacts, from Pandaren, Mogu and Mantid sites. Each different artifact has a low chance to proc a "pristine" version, which starts a quest that lets you put it on display in the Lorewalkers building. Getting ALL of the Pandaren and Mogu pristine artifacts gives this achievement. In the process of getting them all, I dug up 282 Pandaren artifacts and 320 Mogu artifacts. Whew! I'm still working on the mantid equivalent to this achievement; need two more pristine artifacts, so far I've found 266 regular artifacts. Of course, in the process I've got every single one of the "find 20 of X artifact" achievements, so this is the last one till I'm done with archaeology for this expansion, I'll be rather glad to give it a rest, I think! Suits my completist side but it's a bit of a grind... :-P

Grats! I struggled when I starting farming relics for the professor title. But +600 artifacts... Thats just crazy. :) -- Peter T. <https://elite.frontier.co.uk/>

Thats just crazy. :) Hehe, yeah, although in some ways it's easier (or, less painful, anyway) than the relic farming was; Pandaria is smaller, digsites give more fragments than they used to and it's a lot easier to get sites that you actually need by using the lorewalker's map when you get nothing but useless ones (I finished with Mogu artifacts well before I was done with Pandaren, so the last while I was just digging up Pandaren and Mantid sites and using the map whenever I found myself with 4 Mogu sites), but it was certainly a massive grind! By contrast I'm only on about 180 Tol'vir solves, which was the major one before Pandaria - and a large number of those came from converting MoP artifacts into fragments via Brann Bronzebeard!

Wear your title with pride. ;-) I sure am :-) Been wearing The Insane for several years now, it's become more and more common, so I'm happy to have a rarer one to show off my completist streak ;-)
