- Shafted!
- Lonely?
- Dangerous Love
- The Rocket's Pink Glare
- Fistful of Love
- Sweet Tooth
- Be Mine!
- My Love is Like a Red, Red Rose
- I Pitied The Fool
For this achievement you have to shoot 10 players with Silver Shafted Arrow, which you can buy in stacks of 5from the Lovely Merchant for 5 Love Tokens.
To complete this achievement you need to follow certain steps in a specific order:
- Obtain and learn the Romantic Picnic Basket toy from the Lovely Vendor. It costs 10 Love Tokens.
- Buy and open Box of Chocolates until you get a Buttermilk Delight. You can buy the boxes from the Lovely Merchant for 10 Love Tokens.
- Find another player that needs the achievement or can help out. You can both get the achievement in one go if you both meet the requirements.
- Go to Northrend Dalaran (Broken Isles Dalaran won't do it) and use the Picnic Basket.
- Both players should now click on the Picnic Basket to sit down. Using the /sit command doesn't work.
- Wait for both players to obtain the Romantic Picnic buff.
- Eat your Buttermilk Delight and the achievement is yours! Note that only the player who wants the achievement needs to eat the chocolate, although both can obtain it as long as both players eat the chocolate.
This achievement is obtained by finishing a questline that starts with Something Stinks (Horde)/Something Stinks (Alliance)
For this achievement you need to shoot 10 Love Rocket in 20 seconds or less. You can buy the rockets in stacks of 5 from the Lovely Merchant, for 5 Love Tokens per stack. It is recommended that you drag the item to your hotbar and use a keybind to use them to avoid going too slow.
To obtain this achievement you will have to find every race/class combo listed on the achievement, and use a Handful of Rose Petals on them.
You can use them on yourself if you meet the required class/race combination. Level 1 characters can be used to complete this, so having another player helping out makes it very easy.
All the chocolates for this achievement can be obtained by opening a Box of Chocolates, which you can buy from the Lovely Merchant for 10 Love Tokens. Keep in mind that a single box may not contain all the chocolates for the achievement, but you should be able to complete it in less than 3 boxes.
Note: You might want to check the "Lonely?" achievement before eating a Buttermilk Delight if you only have 1, as it is required for both achievements.
The Bag of Heart Candies needed for the achievement can be bought from the Lovely Merchant for 2 Love Tokens. Each bag has 10 charges, and every charge has a chance to create a different Heart Candy. You'll have to buy a few bags if you're not lucky on the first one.
The Bouquet of Red Roses and the Bouquet of Ebon Roses can be obtained from certain bosses of Wrath of the Lich King and Cataclysm dungeons. There is conflicting information on which dungeons, difficulties and bosses have a 100% drop chance for these items, but The Stonecore in Deepholm on both Normal and Heroic modes, seem to be the safest bet.
This achievement requires you to use a Love Fool in 5 specific locations, and /pity them. You will have to buy 5 different Fools, as they have only 1 charge per item. You can NOT use the Sturdy Love Fool as a replacement. The locations are:
- Wintergrasp: Located in Northrend. You can place the Fool anywhere except inside the fortress, as it will instantly disappear and waste it.
- Arathi Basin Blacksmith: You will have to queue for a Battleground in Arathi Basin, and then head to the Blacksmith area. As long as your map says "Blacksmith" you're good.
- Naxxramas: Located in Dragonblight, Northrend. You will have to enter the instance and use the Fool anywhere inside. The area around the summoning stone will not count for the achievement.
- Battle Ring of Gurubashi Arena: Located in Stranglethorn Valley, southern Eastern Kingdoms. You will have to drop down to the PvP-only area for it to count for the achievement.
- The Culling of Stratholme: Located in the Caverns of Time, Tanaris. You will have to enter the instance to place the Fool. Anywhere inside works.

/way #37 32 49.8 Galvus Ironhammer (Alliance)
This achievement is obtained by purchasing a Truesilver Shafted Arrow from the Lovely Merchant for 40 Love Tokens.
For this achievement you need to loot a Lovely Black Dress from the Lovely Dress Box. It's a 1 in 4 chance, so it might take you a few tries. Each box costs 20 Love Tokens. Buying the dress from the Auction House won't grant you the achievement, you must loot it from the box.
To obtain this achievement you need to queue up for the Crown Chemical Co. and defeat the trio of insidious undead apothecaries.
To obtain this achievement you need to finish the event dungeon, Crown & Chemical Co. Apothecaries and loot one of the necklaces they drop. The necklaces drop from the bosses themselves and not the daily reward, allowing you to queue unlimited times until you get it. Once you get the necklace, you have to equip it, wait for its cooldown, and use it. Since it's a necklace, you don't need to loot the one specific for your class/role.
To get this achievement you will need someone else to use Manufactured Love Prism on you until you have 10/25/50 charges of Love Ray on you. You can purchase the Love Prism from the Lovely Merchant for 40 Love Tokens. The Love Prism has a 30 second cooldown, and the Love Ray buff lasts 5 minutes. This was changed in 6.2 from a 1 minute CD and 10 sec duration, making this achievement much easier to obtain now.
Getting more people to do this achievement speeds it up quite a bit. You can find people to do this achievement in the Achievements Discord.

Important: With the Love is in the Air 2024 holiday update, the following activities no longer exist. This section in our guide will be completely removed once the 2024 event ends.
Love Tokens and Lovely Charm Bracelets
While the Love is in the Air World Event is active, you can get Love Tokens by completing daily quests and by defeating the Crown Chemical Company every day.
Apart from that, you can obtain an endless supply of Love Tokens by farming Lovely Charms. Here's how to do it:
- Get the Lovely Charm Collector's Kit by speaking with Kwee Q. Peddlefeet in any of your faction's capital cities
- With the Kit in your inventory, defeat enemies that provide experience or honor for a chance to get Lovely Charms
- Combine 10 Lovely Charms to create a Lovely Charm Bracelet
- Trade each Lovely Charm Bracelet for a Love Token at the Lovely Merchant
Where to Farm Lovely Charms
The best places to farm Lovely Charms are those with many low health enemies that are within your level range.
Since all the Lovely Charm vendor rewards are account-wide, we recommend you farm on a class that can constantly pull mobs with AoE damage from a distance. The ideal classes for this type of farming are Death Knights, Druids and Hunters.
- Any Torghast wing on Layer 1
- Moonclaw Vale in Val'sharah
- Gloaming Reef in Val'sharah
- Saltsea Droplets in Eye of Azshara (Broken Isles)
- Karazhan Dungeon
