Using the pattern
Team Accomplishments requires that several players together can act so they reach an accomplishment that they feel they share. This makes the use of Multiplayer Games a necessity for Team Accomplishments, and the players are often grouped together in Guilds, Parties, or Teams to have Mutual Goals. However, they can also just be given Mutual Goals explicitly or implicitly (in the latter case for example by having a common threat through PvE gameplay). While the common accomplishment can often be expressed as a goal within the game it can also be the successful execution of Collaborative Actions, and more specifically Team Combos, even if these do not lead to the fulfillment of explicit game goals. Likewise, Team Strategy Identification can be a Team Accomplishment even if the strategy does not work or is even put into action and a complete failure can be seen as a Team Accomplishment if the failure lead to Mutual FUBAR Enjoyment.
Consequences
Reaching a Team Accomplishment can be a Social Rewards for all those involved.
