Are Accolades the ONLY Badges that help?

Two of the other badges are also pretty much impossible (the one for reporting bugs and the one for moving between Europe/America). I think even Beefcake is missing both of those.

Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.
Yeah, but Beefcake is the player with most badges collected.

Yes he is, which is why if even he can't manage to get them, it's not just "the oldest" players who can, no one can. They are, for all intents and purposes, as unobtainable as the 1st year veteran badges.

The badges that are impossible to gain atm are:
Celebrant: 1 year anniversary
Reveler: 2 year anniversary
5'th column gladiator (for having 1 & 2 anniversary)
Pursuer: Logging in nov 2006 (launch of cov)
Liberator (For taking an item of power. The item of powers where removed after CoP trial... well some time after)
Bug-Hunter: (Given by a Dev to a player for finding a game-breaking bug (in theory))
Passport: Moving chars from US to EU within a certain time.
As said from posters above some will have them (old badge veterans) others will not. If beefcake had moved to Eu for the badge then... well his char would not be able to get back, but he would have gotten a badge. 
Harder to get are the Veteran Badges and the Dayjob badges.
Rest of the badges are possible (so hunt for fun). We who are shut off from the "impossible" badges got 689 badges that we can collect. I've included the Dayjob and Veteran badges in this count. (So reduce that amount with what you feel proper).
Happy hunting

Only blueside, and I'll be tied with him as soon as I bother to log in my blueside badger and get the latest Vet badge. The max badges currently is 613 redside and 690 blueside. It used to be higher before the Architect badges were removed.

Goodbye and thanks for all the fish.
I've moved on to Diablo 3, TopDoc-1304

Yep, 462 days, so it should be around early April 2010 for most players to chime in as having them all, exceptions being those that got an early jump by being parked in the right spot before the badges went live, or if any of the hotspots were used for multiple badge credit.

Either way.. I think we still have at least a few weeks before anybody collects them all.. and even then, the only people who could have ALL badges are the longest-term players that have all the veteran badges as well. |

1) Bug-Hunter is not impossible to obtain and there is nothing theoretical about people getting it.
2) The Liberator badge had its named changed to 'Power Liberator' to eliminate a conflict with another badge with the same name. (Liberator badge for completing the Eden trial.)

For Bug Hunter it is a rare badge. Story goes to around a handful having that badge. So by all means as Ironblade said, not impossible. However rewarded by a Dev/GM at said persons will, thus in theory not impossible. So i'll moderate the impossible to ultra rare then.
Power Liberator, oh right, name change (sound of hand meeting forhead). Wish to see it in the future though.

I couldn't give a hoot about the skill of those I play with provided I enjoy playing with them.

Tanks as squishy as mine get really frustrating to play with after a few minutes. So do corruptors who deal defender-level damage and Brutes who faceplant every 4th spawn.|

Always beware of a character under level 40 with multiple debt badges.
And the advice the others gave about having a badge character and others with a lot fewer is good advice to keep in mind.
