Now I know most players don't care about achievements, but ever since I've been hunting achievements, I've found that the Hand-Eye Coordination Achievement (where you channel and escape with a Vecna Limited Item) is actually the most difficult achievement to get and I'm not saying that because I don't have the achievement, but that the achievement design is its issue.
You see, every achievement in the game is either something you do as a Survivor, or something you do as a Killer. You run the character's perks for an Adept, you use the Killer's power a certain way or a number of times, etc. The Hand-Eye Coordination Achievement on the other hand, is entirely dependent on you playing Survivor and hoping that you get a player that is playing The Lich/Vecna, which is something you cannot control. Sure, every achievement requires some amount of luck, such as winning adepts, but if you lose a match you can just try again the next one. Even the achievements where you have to complete a certain generator in a map, you can burn map offerings to get the map.
But this achievement you just, have to wait to get a Lich/Vecna, and with all of the Killers in the game the odds of getting one are pretty low, not to mention the luck of getting either the Hand or Eye of Vecna. For reference, the Lich/Vecna spawns with 6 Treasure Chests, which reset after 2 minutes assuming you grab whatever item was in it. Getting either the Hand or Eye is a 5% chance in a Treasure Chest, which means you can only try for an item once every 2 minutes (without the Treasure Chest being a Mimic) for a 5% chance of getting the item and that's not taking into account that you have to escape with it. Plus, the Hand or Eye injures you even with its special effect, but it also makes you an easy target as you can be Mori-ed with the Item, so why would the Killer not go after you?
What I am saying is, the actual odds of getting the achievement are entirely out of your control as a Survivor and are dependent on you just getting lucky to go up against a specific Killer and getting a specific item. Now it is actually not the rarest achievement in the game according to Steam, but that is because people were playing the Lich/Vecna a lot when he released, and now for new players, or players that didn't play during that time, the odds of getting this achievement are now so low and not in their favor.
I think a good change to this achievement would have it to where you escape with any Limited Item and not make it Killer specific, as many new Killers have Limited Items now and Survivors can use Flashbang, so that Survivors don't have to wait just for a chance to get a specific achievement.
I’m completely with you, I have almost 500 hours In the game and have only been paired up against Lich 3 times probably. Every time I’ve gotten the item, I’ve been tunneled, I know there’s a trophy for playing as Lich where you have to kill a player with a Item but they get as many chances as they want. This trophy is genuinely ridiculous, this Is the last trophy I have to have 100%
