Fixes

Suramar — trimmed to core chapters

Removed five side recruitment chapters that were padding the chain:

• Moon Guard Stronghold
• Tidying Tel'anor
• Breaking The Lightbreaker
• Jandvik's Jarl
• Eminent Grow-main

Kept all five core Suramar chapters and all nine Insurrection chapters.

Suramar — wrong achievements removed

Chapter-level achievementID fields (IDs 10757–10766) pointed to unrelated achievements (cooking, Azsuna). Removed all chapter-level IDs. Top-level achievements now: Lockdown! (10617), Insurrection (11124), Good Suramaritan (11340).

The Frozen Throne — duplicate achievement removed

"Might of Dragonblight" appeared twice (Alliance ID 35 and Horde ID 1359 are faction variants of the same achievement). Both removed. Final achievement list: Veteran of the Wrathgate (547), Icecrown: The Final Goal (40), Loremaster of Northrend (41).

Achievement tab hidden when no achievements exist

Story chains with no associated achievements no longer show the Achievements tab. Switching to a chain with no achievements while on that tab now falls back to the Story tab.

Improvements

Achievement row — enhanced tooltip

Hovering an achievement row now shows:

• Full description
• Completion date (if earned)
• All criteria with green ✓ / red ✗ icons
• Reward text

Achievement row — click to open Achievement log

Clicking an achievement row opens the Achievement UI, navigates to that achievement, and closes the StoryMode window.

Class campaign achievements expanded

All twelve Legion class campaigns now include four shared cross-class achievements:

• Glory of the Legion Hero (10746)
• Breaching the Tomb (10994)
• Legionfall Commander (11171)
• Defender of the Broken Isles (11223)

Rogue additionally receives Hidden Potential of the Shadowblade (42295).

Heritage armor achievements added

• Forsaken Heritage Armor: Return to Lordaeron (15579)
• Worgen Heritage Armor: Reclamation of Gilneas (19719)

UI — row hover fade

Achievement rows now show a subtle left–right gradient highlight on hover instead of the default highlight texture.

UI — divider opacity

Section divider gradient opacity reduced from 0.8 → 0.2 for a lighter, less intrusive look.

UI — icon border

Switched to talents-node-square-gray atlas for the achievement icon border, tinted gold. Matches the Talent tree node style.
