Worst Achievement in the game?

I've never been too fond of "collect everything" achievements in games, but I can understand why they are there and am not fundamentally opposed to them on principle. What makes this achievement so aggravating IMO is the fact that DAII reuses environments so frequently that you might pass by the same area 4 times in one Act, and miss the fact that they added in a resource during one of your many run-throughs of the same damn area. Yes...it completely makes sense why a crafting resource would appear in Castillon's Landing but not in the identical warehouse that was used by the Templars and Mages opposed to Meredith earlier in the act. Because they reuse the areas, you can't go back and reclaim the resources you may have missed. The constant reuse of the same environments was one of my biggest complaints about the game, so I'm not sure why Bioware would include a stupid achievements that requires the player to meticulously comb through the every inch of an environment every-time they reused it.
