I was rank 4 with the Tigers, got my mount and switched to Cheng-Ho way before achievements came out .. yet a GM just told me that unless a faction was active when/since achievements came out, I can not get achievement credit for it without re-doing it all. I am finding this kind of ridiculous. Why is it not set up that the chronicler recognizes whether or not you did quests or have items that require faction 4 .. i.e., a mount quest, bought a pet/gear, etc?
