...can anybody confirm if you need to have exactly 1000 gold in all holds or can it be over 1000?

There was a thread concerning the Master Criminal Trophy/Achievement and I believe in there someone confirmed that it could be over 1000.

It can be over 1000.

The only two I have yet to get are the pick 50 locks and 50 pockets (not a pickpocket guy), and the Thieves Guild master achievement. Very tedious and I don't really care.

And after saying this I just became Guild Master. lol

I came by that one completely naturally. Saw the achievement pop up and didn't even know it existed prior. I read every book I saw just to see if it was a skill book once I had experienced my first.

You know you don't actually have to read the content of the skill books, right? Just open 'em once, get your free advancement and put it back down. Takes less than 5 seconds. You're also free to ignore them and get help on leveling up in different ways.

still wastes 4 secs of my time, 4x50, 200 secs add time searching for books = 1-3 hours =P

Seriously? This game svcks up so much time and you think it's tedious to open a book that gives you a free skill level?

For sure. I actually read the books on my iPad when not playing, but I check them all ingame to see if they are skill books or not.

I completed Hard Worker in about 10 minutes... maybe less. What I don't like about it is that it's a trophy at all. You get nothing for collecting ALL of the Dragon Priest Masks... but you get something for doing 3 of the easiest and most mundane things in the game.

Hah, I agree. I really never cared to notice what achievements we could get until around last week. I completely forgot that we could get married. Missing that one and getting a bounty of 1000 in every hold. I'm not sure if I'd want that one.

I'd do it if I could make a genecide run, but there are way too many respawning and essential npcs to even attempt such a playthrough.

I'm definitely doing Master Criminal last on my current character, once I've wrung out all I can from him.
